For those traumatized by waxing, try sugaring! It's an alternative form of hair removal via sugar paste. Better long-lasting results with less pain, reduced redness/irritation, and ideal for sensitive skin. We're all adults here, right? Or at least have reached some moderate level of maturity? If you're a newbie, here are the basics in the pursuit of Brazilian smoothness: Step 1 = undress and use provided cleansing cloth Step 2 = lie down on your back in "butterfly" position, meaning place the feet together and spread knees apart Step 3 = turn on to your side to have any rear areas attended to Andrea was professional, friendly, and even made me laugh a few times! It always helps to chat during a process like this. She had such positive and calming energy, but also worked very efficiently. My entire visit lasted less than 30 minutes. Scheduling an appointment online was easy via Yelp; she is also accessible via phone and returns texts immediately. This sugaring studio is location in the Salon Suites, unit 13, near the corner of Thousand Oaks Blvd & Erbes Rd. Look across the street from Moqueca and Nothing Bundt Cakes. read more

I found the concept of Sugaring a few months ago when I got tired of using shaving and using other creams. After hearing great reviews about Andrea I finally went to try it and Andrea parred all the reviews about her. Andrea is a pure professional who knows how to make her client feel welcome and comfortable. When i went in the first time she made me feel absolutely comfortable and explained to me in detail about what sugaring is and how it will benefit me moving forward. She is the absolute best and takes good care of her clients. She is also very understanding about people's situations. I once missed her appointment sheer out of my own forgetfulness and she completely understood my situation and rescheduled my appointment without as much as saying one word. That right there shows how much she cares about her clients. She is truly the best person. I can say nothing but good things about her. Go to her and you will not be disappointed. read more

Once you come to Andrea, you won't go anywhere else. I've been seeing Andrea since I moved to the Los Angeles area over a year ago. She not only puts you at ease, but she goes out of her way to do right by every single one of her clients. She is meticulous, kind and generous, and a consummate professional to boot. Ladies with dark, thick and unbelievably unruly hair, like myself, will be amazed at what Andrea can do. I don't trust anyone else with my hair removal and neither should you! read more

I had my first sugar wax a few weeks ago and I was nervous but Andrea was very comforting and explained everything. It wasn't as bad as I thought and I was very happy with my results. I am making another appointment! 10/10 would recommend my friends to Pure Sugar 805! read more

This is literally the ONLY review I have ever done so it's serious. Andrea is hands down the absolute BEST. She is the funniest, sweetest and sassiest lady in all the land and her skills are second to none. I have personally seen her for over 5 years and cannot imagine going to anyone else (except for that one time when I was out of town and got RUINED and will never make that mistake again). She has this way of making you feel so comfy and that you have been her friend forever. Don't mess around with anyone else. Go to her. read more

People still ask me what sugaring is when I mention waxing! There aren't very many places in the area that does sugaring, but boy am I happy to have found Andrea! I started going to her when I was pregnant with my youngest 2 years ago! She is very accommodating and tries to make you feel comfortable during it. I don't trust anyone else with my lady bits except her! read more

I had my first sugaring appointment 2.5 years ago and have not turned back to waxing since. It's much less painful and lasts longer! And Andrea is especially amazing- she makes me feel so comfortable and at ease! Andrea is knowledgeable, professional, and just a kind person. I cannot recommend sugaring by Andrea enough. read more

Andrea is the best! I went to her for my first sugaring appointment before my wedding over 3 years ago and instantly knew I could not go anywhere else. She has a great space, was sure to explain to me the process before she started and made me feel very comfortable. She is so kind and gentle throughout the process and makes sure to get every hair. Having thicker hair, I am thankful that sugaring has led to fewer ingrowns and overall smoother skin. I will never go back to razors or waxing thanks to Andrea! read more

Amazing! Perfect experience and beyond happy with results! Andrea makes you feel so comfortable. Highly recommend

Of course I found Andrea via ConejoDeals.com. :) After 20 plus years of waxing, I'm NEVER going back. Love the whole sugaring concept, plus Andrea makes her clients perfectly comfortable in what otherwise can be a rather hairy process. (Sorry, can never resist a good pun.) Easy scheduling and handy reminders using Andrea's app. read more

Andrea is the best!!! I've been seeing her for sugaring services for over 3 years, and I'm so glad she finally has her own practice. Not only is she great at what she does, but shes amazing to talk to and makes you feel totally comfortable. Go see her, and you won't want to go anywhere else! read more

Andrea is the absolute best!! I am a wax convert to sugar and thankfully, it's all because of her. She's is well versed in sugar and takes her time, as opposed to just a peel and run. She is driven to take care of all her clients and only does what is best for them! She is a breath of fresh air honestly. She knows her stuff and can walk newbies through the process. I have seen such an improvement in my skin and less ingrown hair. Not to mention (not to do a PSA for sugar), but seriously, all the crap chemicals you will start to avoid once you ditch the wax. Well worth the switch. This is the place to go! read more

Andrea is the sweetest girl in the world! I have been to many waxers in my lifetime and this is by far the most pain free waxing technique. And no ingrown hair like other waxes cause.,I have a suite in the salon were Andrea works and I send all of my clients to her. Everyone is super happy! This is really the new best way to wax especially for young girls who are afraid. Her prices are fair and her room is beautiful. Super sanitary. Sugar waxing is the best. I'm so happy! So is my husband Thank you Andrea. Your the bestest!!! read more

Andrea is amazing! I don't even remember how I found her but I was pregnant and wanted to find someone to manicure my bikini area before I couldn't see it any more!

Awesome on every level! Always very professional and friendly. Great services! Thank you to Andrea for everything this last year :)

Andrea is wonderful! Flexible with my crazy schedule and always makes me feel comfortable! Thank you!!!

Let's face it - waxing has never made the top of anyone's list of fun things to do. Finding someone that makes it comfortable, relaxing, and pleasant is not an easy process. When I moved to Westlake I looked for a local person I could trust for my waxing. Following recommendations from friends, Yelp reviews, and Groupon deals I tried so many people and salons but didn't find a place I loved. So I decided to check out sugaring and found Andrea - and I've been addicted to both ever since. Sugaring is a much smoother process than waxing (with a smoother result) and Andrea makes the entire process enjoyable. She is a pro at what she does and exudes warmth with her fun conversation. She cares about her clients, keeps a beautiful and sanitary room, and gets the job done with expertise. After three years I cannot imagine trusting anyone else, and recommend her highly. She is, without a doubt, the BEST. read more
