Looking for a trans sensitivity consultant for my new waxing business!

I need to pay at least one person to consult on making sure my waxing menu is not cissexist! If any trans and/or non-binary (no cis people please. Obviously I am cis so I don’t need cis opinions on this) people are interested, please read on.

You must be over the age of 18 because waxing is an intimate service and I will need to be able to explain what a waxing service includes in clinical terms (so if this is potentially triggering this will not be for you - but I take my work very seriously so this will stay 100% clinical, no offensive or inappropriate joking).

Basically the issue is this: I am not trained to wax all bodies. I would love to say that waxing all people, regardless of gender, is the same but that just isn’t true or fair. And though I have nearly three years of experience as a wax specialist I have only performed Brazilian*/bikini waxes on cis women and people with vulvas. I know that often trans women in particular do not feel comfortable going to waxing businesses that aren’t explicitly trans friendly, and I don’t expect them to make appointments for bikini waxes but I want to make sure that if this comes up I can handle it properly until I learn how to perform all waxes on wax all bodies. Unfortunately most waxing businesses use gendered language and I would like to do better than that. So here we are.

I will need you to go over my menu with me so that I can make sure that my menu is as clear as possible without being harmful to trans people. This shouldn’t take too long, no more than two hours. I would just ask trans friends of mine for their opinions but I believe labor should be paid - and I will be offering $150 (you may counter this of course) for one - two hours of consultation.

Please send me a dm if you are interested with the following info:

Name

Preferred Pronouns

What is your gender identity? Obviously I need someone who is not a cis person so this is relevant.

Age

Where are you located? (IE: time zone and country - I would prefer to consult with someone who is living in the Americas just to make things a bit easier. Please do not tell me your exact address lmao I do not need that much information, and you shouldn’t be sharing it anyway).

Would you prefer working through email/zoom or another platform? No texting please.

Have you had any experience getting waxed? (Not required)

Are you a licensed esthetician/cosmetologist in the US? (Not required)

Have you done any sensitivity consulting on any subject before? (Not required but this would be beneficial) If so, what did you do and how was it?

Are you okay with professional discussions of bikini waxes, facial waxes, etc? This will have to include clinical definitions of the services I do and do not provide because I am not sure how else to say what they are. Absolutely NO offensive/inappropriate/gendered slang or jokes, just textbook names.

Do you have any questions for me?

I appreciate your time. If you know anyone who might be interested, please feel free to share this post with them. If I hire you for this, I will provide proof of my professional license.

Thanks,

Your friendly (if overwhelmed) Delaware-based wax specialist, Cait.

*In the US, a bikini wax that includes the butt strip is called a Brazilian wax. There are other variations (sometimes called a French, American, etc) but this is the most common name for it. I have had many Brazilian guests say that they just call it a bikini wax in Brazil, but since I am in the States this is the term I use.

🚨Collagen Induced Red Light Therapy:🚨 Red light therapy alleviates both acute and chronic inflammation by increasing blood flow to the damaged tissues, and it's been found in numerous clinical trials to increase the body's antioxidant defenses as well. Does Red Light Therapy Help in Skin Tightening? Therapy works by radiating vitality generating streams of red LED light deep into the skin. The therapy activates production of collagen (which plumps the skin), elastin (which tightens the skin) and removes the acne causing bacteria by closing dead pores on the skin. Everyone has different skin, keeping that in mind depends on your skin. With handheld devices it’s recommended to start with a commitment of 15 minutes, which is the maximum time, every other day. In a Red Light Therapy bed, at least 3-5 times per week for the first 1-4 weeks. All in all... Red Light Therapy leaves skin feeling healthy, lifted, and glowing. Have you tried this treatment?? What’s your opinion on Collagen Induction - Red Light Therapy? #redlighttherapy #collageninduction #skincarechatgroup #skincare #skincareaddicts #beautiejunkies #skincarecommunity #abcommunity #selfcare #healthyskin #acnetreatment #antiaging #glowingskin #instaglow #facelift #beautifulskin #estheticians #dermatologist #beautyinfluencer #bblogger #locabella503 (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2ujvKwA7Lm/?igshid=19i1ttcc32dgq

RECEIVED MY SUPPLE PREPARATION FACIAL TONER BY @klairs.global FOR A TRIAL FEE OF $3.99 FROM @0.8l_usa IN EXCHANGE FOR MY REVIEW. 💦💧💦💧💦💧💦💧💦💧💦💧 Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner (unscented) is the second version of the Original toner that excluded all essential oil, which makes it scent-free. While the original toner contains non-irritating all natural essential oil, the unscented was made to provide an option for customers’ preference for scents. With various plant extracts and soothing ingredients blended together. Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner is thicker in consistency, with Hylauronic Acid & Beta-Glucan which I feel is way more hydrating. My skin glows brighter with moisture. #ProTip 💦 I like to soak cotton pads in Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner and apply as a face mask for 30min, to get the most out of this awesome toner. Toners are an essential part of our skincare regimen. Toners are the highways for the serums, essences and ampoules to drive deeper into the skin. I’m obsessed with Klairs Supple Preparation Facial Toner. #08literusa #08L #08Lbestmay #literites #klairssupplepreparationfacialtoner #klairs #wishtrend #supplepreparationfacialtoner #toners #beautiejunkies #skincareaddicts #skincare #dermalove #dermatology #review #kbeauty #koreanbeauty #beautyworldwide #bbloggers #estheticians #aesthetics #locabella503

If you’ve been thinking about building a career in skincare, choosing the right esthetician school is one of the most important steps. With the beauty industry growing rapidly, more people are looking for professional training that goes beyond just the basics.

One of the things I’ve noticed while researching is how important hands-on experience really is. It’s not just about learning techniques—it’s about practicing them, understanding real skin concerns, and building confidence with clients.

That’s why I started looking into options for an esthetician school in Virginia Beach, and found that some schools focus heavily on practical training along with theory. Programs like esthetician training, master esthetician courses, and even specialized options like waxing certifications can really help you stand out.

I came across Unique School of Aesthetics, which offers a mix of beginner and advanced programs designed for different career paths in skincare. What stood out to me was their hands-on approach and the variety of training options available for students who want to grow in this field.

If you’re exploring your options, it’s definitely worth checking out their programs and seeing what fits your goals: 👉 https://uniqueschoolofaesthetics.com/

At the end of the day, the right training can make a big difference—not just in what you learn, but in how confident you feel stepping into the industry.
