ShahlaBee Studio

ShahlaBee Studio is an electrolysis studio in San Marino that offers permanent hair removal to clients in Pasadena, Los Angeles and the greater San Gabriel Valley. Services are by appointment only, and clients can book by calling or texting 323-559-7015. Staff speak Spanish.

The studio focuses on PCOS, hirsutism and gender-affirming care. For eligible treatments it provides superbills, which can help clients seek insurance reimbursement, and the studio notes these are especially relevant for medically necessary hair removal and gender-affirming care.

Every first-time client starts with a free consultation to talk through goals and shape a personalized treatment plan. Sessions run from a 15-minute nano session at $45 to a 120-minute session at $350, with 30-, 45-, 60- and 90-minute sessions priced in between. Clients who commit to coming in at least twice a month receive discounts, and package clients can earn free minutes; details are available by asking the studio.

Before an appointment, the studio advises avoiding caffeine, drinking water, exfoliating the treatment area the night before, and telling the provider about any medications or skin conditions. Afterward, clients are advised to stay out of the sun for 24 hours, apply aloe vera, skip strenuous exercise, and cleanse the treated area gently with products free of harsh ingredients.

Honest, professional care without judgment or pressure, with each plan shaped around the client's goals.
