Meet Our Educators
ANNIE SOEHNGEN
Director of Sales & Education - Las Vegas, NV
I’ve been a licensed esthetician for more than a decade as well as a wax specialist and licensed instructor. The esthetics industry is my passion but education is where I thrive. I love to see students learn new skills while growing their confidence at the same time.
I quickly fell in love with waxing right out of school and knew this was the space I wanted to be in. I started teaching 6 years ago, and I am lucky enough to combine both passions of esthetics and teaching.

Liz Hernandez
Hive educator - Chicago, IL
I am an esthetician in IL and the owner of Mar Beauty Lounge in Chicago. I have 8 years of experience in esthetics and I specialize in body waxing and lash services. I strive to provide a welcoming, professional, and relaxing space for my clients and my students. I’ve learned that when clients feel at ease they trust you and once they trust you they become loyal clients. You must believe in yourself and feel confident in what you do for others to trust your work.
It was so hard for me to find good courses or a mentor when I first started waxing. I remember paying so much money for classes to learn one specific thing, but still leaving the class feeling confused. I acknowledge my students’ trust, and I make sure once they leave my course they are confident in the service they came to learn.
