Pro Retail Starter Kit, Smooth Operator and Nourishing Oil (PRO)

For licensed professionals only. The Pro Retail Starter Kit is sold to waxers, sugarists, estheticians, and salon owners with an active business. There is no application and no login, and we confirm professional status on every order before it ships, so please check out with your business name and email. If we need a little more to confirm, we may ask for a resale license, a Google Business listing, a website, or a booking link.

The Pro Retail Starter Kit is the easiest way to bring Just The Strip into your studio. It pairs a full size 100 ml glass pump bottle of Smooth Operator with a full size 1 oz bottle of Nourishing Oil in the scent of your choice, so you can feel the texture, use the routine yourself, and see how your clients respond before you place a larger PRO order. These are full size retail products, not miniature samples, so what you try is exactly what your clients will take home.

Smooth Operator is our ingrown hair serum for stubborn ingrowns and razor bumps. Salicylic acid reaches into the follicle to clear it, glycolic and lactic acids smooth the surface so hair can grow through cleanly, and camphor, glycerin, and vitamin E calm and hydrate at the same time. It is not for clients who are pregnant, nursing, or allergic to aspirin, so reach for Truth Serum for them.

Nourishing Oil finishes the routine. Grape seed and jojoba oils hydrate without feeling heavy, tea tree leaf oil helps keep the follicle clean, and copaiba resin soothes. Choose Plain Jane, which is fragrance free and nut free, Slow Your Roll Lavender, Dreamsicle, Silky Smooth Sandalwood, or Lemon Dream. The four scented oils include sweet almond oil, so Plain Jane is the one to choose for a nut allergy. Nourishing Oil is made by us in small batches in Southern Oregon.

The kit was put together by Tawnya Fornerod, a licensed esthetician with almost 25 years in the beauty industry who owns multiple studios, and it is the same aftercare routine she sends home with her own clients. To keep starter kits available for pros who are new to us, each customer can receive up to four single retail products through our starter kits in total. Every product in a kit counts toward that limit, so a starter kit counts as two and a Deluxe kit counts as three. If an order goes over four, we will reach out, refund the extra products, and ship only the allowed amount.

Not sure which kit or scent fits your studio best? Email us at hello@justthestrip.com and we will happily help you put together a curated sample box, including samples of our Brow Conditioning Oil, Lash Conditioning Oil, and other products. When you are ready to stock your shelf, our For the Pros Only collection has PRO 3 packs at half of retail.

How to use

Right after waxing, sugaring, or shaving, pump a small amount of Smooth Operator into your hand, smooth a thin layer over the area, and let it dry completely, then massage in three to five drops of Nourishing Oil. Clients repeat the same two steps once a day at home between appointments.
