About SUGARED + BRONZED (West 3rd)
Sugaring hair removal and airbrush tanning are the two core services, offered side by side rather than buried on a long spa menu. Sugaring uses an all-natural paste said to refine hair growth and reduce ingrowns over time, while tans use a proprietary FlexExpress airbrush solution. Monthly memberships provide up to 40% off services, 10% off retail, and rollover of unused services, and $15 trainee appointments are available. A retail line includes sunless tanning lotion, mousse, water and glow drops, sugar paste, Hocoba Oil, exfoliating scrubs and mitts, and ingrown remedy roll-ons.
The brand began in 2010 as a side hustle in founder Courtney Claghorn's Santa Monica apartment while she worked full time at a fintech company, building a client base on nights and weekends. Frustrated by overpriced, underwhelming spray tans, she was encouraged by her now-husband and co-founder Sam Offit, whom she met at the University of Colorado at Boulder, to create a better option. She later paired spray tanning with sugaring, an ancient Egyptian hair removal method, and left corporate work to run the business full time. The company has since grown to more than 40 locations across California, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Florida, with staff trained in sugaring and airbrush tanning in-house.
