About

Sassafras Sugaring Studio was founded by Danelle Shafer, who works there as owner and sugarist. The studio is at 2918 NE 55th Street, beside Pancita restaurant and the Queen Mary Tea Room, and visits are by appointment only.

Hair removal is done with sugaring, using Tamara's Sugar paste, which the studio says is made from sugar, lemon and water with no waxes or resins. Hair is removed in the direction of growth, and it should be at least 1/8 inch long, though removal can begin at 1/16 inch. According to the studio, the paste is warmed to body temperature so it carries no risk of burns, and the studio describes the paste as all-natural and organic and sugaring as eco-friendly because no strips or sticks are used.

Six facials run from 60 to 90 minutes. Several include sound healing, crystal bowl sound healing, ice globe massage, or guided meditation, and Celluma LED light therapy can be added to any facial. Intuitive energy healing sessions are 60 or 75 minutes, with a 90-minute Deep Dive and a three-session journey also available, in person in Seattle or on Zoom. The studio notes that these sessions are not a substitute for medical or mental health care. Sound healing sessions are hosted once a month at Blosm Studio in the Wedgwood neighborhood.

Cancellations and reschedules need at least 24 hours' notice, otherwise a fee of 50% of the booked cost applies, and no-shows are charged the full appointment price. Brazilian and bikini services are not offered for men, but the studio can provide referrals. Clients taking Accutane should wait six months after stopping before sugaring. Sugaring is skipped during sunburn, antibiotic use, recent chemical peels, or compromised skin, and it can be done during pregnancy, though sensitivity may increase.

The studio also teaches sugaring. A one-day intensive certification course costs $699, and the Brazilian sugaring advanced course is $275 for certified sugaring students or $399 taken separately. Participants must be licensed estheticians, cosmetologists, or active students in those programs. Travel options, salon setup and other advanced courses are available at negotiable prices. Sugaring kits range from $125 to $770, and a kit with a warmer is recommended. Calls and texts are accepted at 206-484-7206.

Sugaring is the core of the practice, with skincare and intuitive energy healing offered alongside it.
