Sugar Box, located downtown on Granville and Nelson in the Chop Shop salon, is the ultimate Brazilian waxing shop in Vancouver. Designer Jane Brooks has waxed over 13,000 women, and can be easily called one of the best Brazilian estheticians.

Sugarbox hair removal was created to bring professional and fun together with brazilian waxing and brow shaping to Vancouver in an ultra girlie environment. Hair removal is not just anything anyone can do (well). With experience and dedication, Sugarbox believes in modesty and comfort when in comes to brazilian waxing. That means proper draping, comfortable temperatures and customizing final details.

Jane leads the revolution in Brazilian waxing. Doing it not only well, but with style. Your "sugar box" can be shaped, colored, and even bejeweled. Whether you go bare, a hot celebrity trend right now, or leave a little heart shape, you’re in good hands. And, yes, they take design requests.

Brazilian’s have gone to the next level - as a form of body art.

Victoria’s Secret Catalogue Goes a Little Greener.

Related entries in Other news

‘(CBC) - Victoria’s Secret’s parent firm and a conservation group have reached an agreement to make the lingerie retailer’s catalogue more environmentally friendly.

The catalogue will no longer be made of pulp supplied from some parts of the forests of Alberta and British Columbia, U.S.-based ForestEthics announced Wednesday.

Limited Brands will no longer use suppliers who source from the Rocky Mountain Foothills near Hinton, Alta., or who source paper from any woodland caribou habitat range in Canada, unless it has been certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

The Ohio-based company will also not use suppliers sourcing from Vancouver-based West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd., which has a pulp mill near Hinton.

“The steps Limited Brands has taken make up one of the strongest environmental policies to result from a corporate campaign, and we applaud them for it," Todd Paglia, executive director of ForestEthics, said in a release.

"They’ve set a new standard, one that we expect other major catalogue companies to meet or exceed."

The conservation group has been campaigning for two years to get Limited Brands to change its catalogue policies.

In another part of the agreement, the catalogues will be made of 10 per cent recycled paper from post-consumer waste.

“We consider environmental stewardship to be an essential part of our brand, and we’re proud to take a leadership role in the catalogue industry, ” said Tom Katzenmeyer, Limited Brands’ senior vice-president of community and philanthropy.

The boreal forest is the habitat of the woodland caribou, a species deemed by the Canadian government to be at risk.’
