Dannie Garrett
Licensed Esthetician
CEO | Founder | Silky Smooth Sugaring
Director of Education, Trauma Care Specialist
CEO | Founder | Bend Body Sugaring, Oregon
I’m Dannie, the face behind Silky Smooth Sugaring and our sister salon, Bend Body Sugaring, located in Beautiful Bend, Oregon.
While this might be our first time connecting, we’ve been part of this industry for quite some time. I am the mother of a beautiful, sassy daughter and our Saint Bernadoodle Blanche!
I have always dreamed of creating my own brand of sugaring pastes and post-hair removal products for clients with sensitive skin. After many failed attempts and burnt pots and pans, I finally found the perfect recipe for my signature sugaring pastes and products.
I wanted to share my environmentally friendly organic products with clients and other Aestheticians. I started teaching the ancient technique of Body Sugaring. Still, the most important thing I wanted to share was how vital inclusivity is when providing services to clients, especially intimate hair removal services. Some clients have trauma, especially with certain areas of the body. It is my mission to make sure all folks feel welcomed and safe. I am a trauma survivor myself whose sole purpose is to help clients feel welcome, safe, and beautiful.
When you support my business, you’re supporting a mother who left a domestic violence relationship to provide a safe world for her daughter, A sexual assault survivor who strives to help other survivors.
A business owner who wants to lift everyone up, not only Aestheticians. She helps in any way she can, whether by sharing knowledge, experience, or a helping hand. Never in my wildest dreams did my inner little girl predict this amazing journey! Whether you need survivor support, are brand new to Sugaring, or are a seasoned aesthetician, I am here for you! I can’t wait to learn more about you!
