The Sugar Spot

The Sugar Spot opened in 2020 in Long Beach, offering sugaring, a hair-removal method that works from the root. Rebecca owns the studio and works there as an esthetician and sugaring specialist.

Each visit starts with clean skin and ends with a balm, lotion, or oil. Brazilian sugaring appointments include a cleansing wipe. The business says it tailors services to each client's needs and works with all body types.

The studio's paste is traditionally made from sugar, lemon, and water. The business describes sugaring as effective and gentle on the skin, and says the paste is never hot enough to burn and is never double-dipped in the sugar pot.

Booking is governed by a few house policies. Cancellations need at least 6 hours' notice to avoid a late-cancellation charge of 25% of the service price, which is taken from the card on file. Clients more than 10 minutes late are rescheduled and marked as a no-show, and repeated no-shows are barred from booking. Clients are asked to text the provider's number on arrival, and additional guests cannot be accommodated in the service room. Payment is accepted by Zelle, Venmo, CashApp, cash, or card.
