Cleopatra's Sugaring Salon, founded by Sonia Bakri in Groton, Connecticut, is the first and only sugaring salon in New London County. Opened on July 20, 2015, the salon carries on the ancient Egyptian art of sugaring – a natural, healthier alternative to traditional hair removal methods. Rooted in Sonia's family tradition, sugaring uses a simple sugar paste applied in the direction of hair growth and removed against it, resulting in smooth, hair-free skin with minimal discomfort. The salon is spacious, inviting, and comforting, offering an affordable and unique experience. Serving everyone within 50 miles of Groton, Cleopatra's Sugaring Salon is committed to bringing the worldwide benefits of sugaring to the local community.
