You could be the best waxer in the world, but if nobody knows you exist, how are you going to build a clientele?

This episode is one I've been SO excited to share!

I'm sitting down with Brie Mesquit, founder of Rebel Wax, waxing educator, entrepreneur, and host of The Rebel Show, for a conversation about becoming a better waxer, building a business that actually makes money, and why showing up for yourself is just as important as showing up for your clients.

Brie is someone I've personally looked up to throughout my career. I've taken her trainings, followed her journey, and learned so much from the way she approaches both waxing education and business growth. Now, I'm beyond excited to have her joining us as an educator at ELEVATE 2027 in Sedona, Arizona!

And yes, we're talking about her famous 7-Minute Brazilian!

But this conversation goes so much deeper than speed waxing.

In This Episode:


The technique behind Brie's famous 7-Minute Brazilian and why speed should never come before quality


Hard wax vs. soft wax vs. sugaring, and why there's room for all three in our industry


How Brie built Rebel Wax by creating solutions she wanted in her own treatment room


Why continuing education matters, even when you've been waxing for 15 years


How to build a fully booked waxing business without spending your entire life creating content


The Rule of 100 and how to use it when your appointment books are looking empty


Why building your personal brand matters more than ever


Growing a team and getting clients comfortable booking with someone other than you


Why getting in the room with other beauty professionals can completely change your business

The Takeaway

Master your craft, but don't forget to master your business.

You don't need to become a full-time content creator, post four times a day, or learn how to wax a Brazilian in seven minutes to be successful.

You need great technique, a client experience people want to come back for, and a strategy that helps people find you.

And sometimes the biggest growth happens when you get out of your treatment room and surround yourself with people who push you to think bigger.
