Alyssa Nightingale

Owner/Trainer/Sugarista Extraordinaire

I've lived in Taos for almost a decade and have been sugaring since 2016. I love it and so do my clients! I am the go-to for hair removal not only in this town but in the region. Although I have a few clients that had been sugared before (and came to me because they swore they would never wax again!), most of my clients discover sugaring at my studio. Thinking they're coming in for yet another painful wax they leave ecstatic that they have discovered sugaring.  Sugaring is amazing and sells itself! All you have to do is learn how to do it quickly, thoroughly and with a smile and you'll have clients for life!

Southwest Sugaring offers an exclusive Sugaring Certification Class designed to launch you into a highly successful career. Your clients will love this amazing technique! It is completely organic, less painful than waxing and has amazing results. If you're currently waxing, your clients will be forever grateful that you made the switch to sugaring.  This unique, one-of-a kind class will teach you how to sugar from head to toe with sugar paste from Tamara's Professional Body Sugaring. Interested in mastering Brazilians? The Advanced Brazilian Technique Class will give you the confidence you need for the sugaring service everyone wants. Whether you're a new Esthetician or have been practicing for 30 years, learning to sugar can revolutionize your business.

Certification classes are in-person and can accommodate up to four students. Current COVID-19 restrictions limit the class size to two. Private classes are available as well!  Almost the entire class time is hands-on learning because Tamara's has an online education portal to teach you the rest. 
​
In our time together you will:

• Learn how to manipulate sugar.
• Learn which paste consistencies are best for different areas of the body and how to make custom blends.
• Sugar a live model! 
• Get connected to my private sugarista Facebook page for continuing support.

Tamara's

I exclusively use Tamara's sugar in my studio and training. Her products are awesome--fair trade, organic, vegan and cruelty free. Education is important to Tamara because she wants you to succeed! That's why trainings are in-person and hands on--so you can have stellar technique to match her amazing products.

After you reserve a class with me, I'll get you registered so you can purchase a kit directly through Tamara's. Kits range from $98-$700.
