EBONY Beauty salon at Quamby Place has smashed the previous record for the number of Brazilians carried out in a single day.
A total of 55 ladies and two blokes queued up for the record attempt on Monday 8 December, from dawn until dusk.
Ebony Beauty owner Kim Susskind said she was overwhelmed by the response despite falling short of her original target.
“We had hoped to do 60, but with the rain and storms on Monday we had a few late cancelations and made it to 55,” she said.
“It was still such a great day and the half price offer went down a treat with our clients.”
She said the day started with a live radio interview at 7am before the first client at 8am.
“People travelled from as far as Mooloolaba – it was a huge success and everyone thoroughly enjoyed taking part,“ she said.
“We even had two token men at the end of the day, who gave us a great laugh.
“Everyone left with a certificate of participation and a free gift.”
Ms Susskind said her salon uses only natural waxing products known as sugar wax, which is more comfortable for clients and chemical free.
“It’s a lot less mess to work with and provides comfort and peace of mind for our clients,” she said.
While not an official “Guinness” world record, Ms Susskind said the previous unofficial record was set in Launceston, Tasmania, and was 38 Brazilians.
