Maria DeNicola

CPE, CCE, CLS

I was born in Hollywood, Florida, in February 1965 and relocated to Arizona with my family. My journey into Electrolysis began at the age of 12 when I started receiving treatment for my own unwanted dark hair. I vividly recall lying on the technicianโ€™s table, captivated by the transformative process unfolding before me. Then, I knew my callingโ€”to extend this same transformative experience to others. Driven by this passion, I embarked on my path to becoming an electrologist just a few years later. Under the guidance of Betty Williams at the Arizona State School of Electrolysis, I honed my skills and deepened my understanding of hair removal and client care. In August 1982, I proudly graduated and earned my certification as a Certified Electrologist, laying the foundation for my own practice. For over 42 years, I have dedicated myself to the art and science of Electrolysis, earning recognition such as the prestigious Golden Probe Award for my commitment to excellence in the field. Throughout this journey, I have had the privilege of enhancing the lives of countless individuals by addressing their unwanted hair concerns.
