Meet Your Esthetician

Melissa Wood is a licensed esthetician born and raised in Savannah, Georgia, with over four years of experience specializing in sugaring. Her passion for skincare began at a young age, inspired by her late grandmother, Josie Mae Boyd, whose flawless complexion sparked Melissa’s deep admiration for healthy, beautiful skin.

In June 2024, Melissa launched Josie B. Esthetics in her grandmother’s honor, creating a space rooted in care, confidence, and intentional beauty. The bee, a symbol of resilience and the sweetness of life, also serves as a personal ode to Melissa’s name, which means “honeybee.” This symbolism reflects her approach to esthetics: gentle, precise, and naturally effective.

At Josie B. Esthetics, Melissa is dedicated to enhancing natural beauty through expert sugaring services and results-driven skincare, ensuring every client feels confident in their skin!
