About Me

Andreia Pellegrino (Deia) was born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil. At a young age she developed a passion for learning English, and made it her life long goal to come to America! In the year 2000 her dreams came true when she was finally able to move to the United States.

After arriving in America she struggled to find a salon that offered the waxing expertise she was used to finding at home in Brazil. Since Andreia couldn't find an esthetician who could deliver the results she was looking for, she decided to start waxing herself as well as practicing on friends and family. Quickly Andreia recognized her talent and listened to her loved ones who encouraged her to make it a profession. Deciding to follow her new passion, she attended and graduated from Bellus Academy, as a licensed esthetician. Andreia now has over 15 years of waxing experience. What makes her so passionate about waxing is partially due to how she grew up.

As a teenager she struggled first hand with getting rid of unwanted hair, just like most girls do as they go through puberty. It was her Mother who insisted and first introduced her to the benefits of waxing, that kept her from ever having to shave again. Because of Andreia's experience with fighting against unwanted hair, she understands the hesitation people go through, and the uneasiness people may experience at first. This is why she has a sincere deep compassion and understanding for helping each individual achieve their dream of attaining touchable smooth skin. 

Andreia is committed not just to her career but to YOU, because she enjoy's helping you learn how to love the skin you are in. She has seen the long lasting benefits that occur from proper waxing techniques and wants everyone to get those same results. Waxing is an art, it takes thoughtful care and consideration to ensure the hair doesn't break or for the skin to become inflamed. She is dedicated to treating each client with as much care as she would use for herself. Although waxing is her number one passion, Andreia is also a certified yoga instructor, reiki master, and manicurist. She enjoys the active San Diego lifestyle, and making new friends.
