Meenaz Merchant

Esthetician

Skin care has been my passion all my life. I’ve been taking care of my body and skin since I was 14 years old when I started making homemade masks and learning old sugaring hair removal techniques.

I care for my clients and the health of their skin, as if it was my own!   I’m passionate about helping people by giving my best advice on what they need for their skin type, options without pressure!

“I always knew I wanted to work in a place that not only could I treat people’s skin, but I can grow with clients and join them on their journey.”  Knowing that skin was my passion, I decided to make the  change in my life to do just that, and since I made the switch, I couldn’t be any happier.

I specialize in microneedling, microdermabrasion, derma-planing , chemical-peels and wide variety of facials, as well as, full body waxing, eyebrow threading and waxing, eyebrow tint  and eyelash tint.

I was born in India and have lots of siblings. I always wanted to enhance the inner beauty of my family members and my friends, so I was their “go to” person for threading, waxing,  mini facial treatments , makeup application and hair for all occasions and functions. So really, I’ve been doing skincare for ever!

I really enjoy meeting people and helping them enhance and explore their skincare needs.  All the modalities we have at Sanctuary Salon & Med Spa are excellent tools to help my clients. My clients skin is my canvass by using the different modalities of facials, chemical peels, micro needling, Sublative skin classic, dermaplane and acne treatments it allows me to customize their skincare routine.   Another one of my favorite things it showing my clients how to open their eyes just by shaping and tinting their brows and lashes!  It’s amazing what a difference it makes!

One thing most of you don’t know about me is that I can fix broken iphone screens!

I love to go on long walks with my son and an active volunteer and dedicated to my church and community!
