10 things you didn’t know about Shobha

- we used to sell footless pantyhose to accommodate our former mani/pedi customers (brows, bikinis…& feet?!). check out an original Shobha manicure station above!
- Shobha (our founder) used to make our signature Shobha® Sugaring Gel in her very own kitchen!
- Shobha® SoHo has nearly tripled in size since its conception in 2001, going from 1000 sq ft to 3000 sq ft.
- our original company colors used to be burgundy & gold…could you imagine not seeing our signature orange!? us either.
- when we first opened, we only offered sugaring. years later we introduced waxing…we pride ourselves on it not being the other way around.
- Shobha (our founder) was the first person to work at our front desk & yes, she knows how to thread, but not like our current brow experts!
- we used to have facials & henna tattoos on our menu. in fact, we still offer henna tattoos, but for private events only.
- only in 2004, did we actually start offering brazilians as a service. before that, it was all about the landing strips.
- Shobha® Madison once survived a great flood. It was so bad, we’re not even going to elaborate.
- we’ve provided hairless happiness behind the scenes of popular tv shows, such as america’s next top model & one that rhymes with “ugly yeti” – but we can assure you, yeti’s are defiantly hairier than the whole cast combined!
