While her two locations, in Tysons Corner and Reston, offer solely waxing services, what Annie offers to clients is a welcoming and peaceful environment for first-time or umpteenth-time wax clients. Clients return to Annie\u2019s for the top-tier waxing services and the boutique selection of items available in-store<strong>. Read on for more about Ms. Annie and her two wax studios.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>About Annie<\/h3>\n<p>Anh \u2018Annie\u2019 Nguyen came to the US from Vietnam as a teen and landed in Northern Virginia. She has since stayed in Fairfax County. Her first professional role was as an IT recruiter. \u201cI was in IT recruiting for seven years, and I was just lost. I didn\u2019t like it, and I wasn\u2019t good at it,\u201d she said. While Annie considered her next move, she explored different career options that would give her more autonomy and professional satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-166739\" src=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"owner Annie at Ms Annie's Waxing\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-1170x1560.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Ms-Annie-585x780.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><br \/>\nShe knew that on-the-job training would make a difference for her, and when a five-star spa and salon accepted her for training, her path was set. \u201cI worked there for about two years and then went out on my own,\u201d she said. The first location of <a href=\"https:\/\/msawaxing.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ms. Annie\u2019s Waxing Studio<\/a> opened in 2016 in Tysons Corner, at 7777 Leesburg Pike, Suite 201S.<\/p>\n<p>Annie grew her client base and hired additional aestheticians while keeping the focus on providing high-quality waxing services. In 2021, Annie opened a second location in Reston, at 11730 Plaza America Drive, Suite 120. Annie said that the Reston location grew a lot faster than the Tysons location, based on the salon\u2019s reputation. \u201cWe build a really good clientele and because of Tyson&#8217;s reputation,\u201d she said. \u201cwe were able this was able to take off much faster than Tysons.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>About the Salon<\/h3>\n<p>The wax used at Ms. Annie\u2019s is custom-made per Annie\u2019s specifications. The formula is designed to prioritize the client\u2019s long-term skin health. \u201cIt\u2019s not just about removing hair. It\u2019s about how you feel after waxing\u2014not just today, but in two weeks, in a month,\u201d Annie said. The wax was developed in partnership with a female-owned manufacturing company in Colorado, and removes 99% of hair roots, leading to softer regrowth and fewer ingrown hairs over time. \u201cIt\u2019s called Ms. Annie\u2019s Wax and only other licensed professionals can buy it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-166740\" src=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"the shop at ms annie's waxing studio\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-1170x1560.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Shop_Ms-Annies-585x780.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The salon has a boutique feel, thanks to the curated selection of products available for purchase. \u201cEvery product in the studio is from a female-owned, small business. If I can text the owner directly, that\u2019s a small business to me,\u201d she says. Fan favorites include body scrubs, lotions, and non-toxic scented candles.<br \/>\nAnnie\u2019s love for plants is also apparent at the salon. There are mature, leafy plants filling the space, giving the space a calm energy.<\/p>\n<h3>What to Expect<\/h3>\n<p>For Annie, it\u2019s important to create a welcoming and supportive environment for clients and staff. \u201cWe care about the client\u2019s experience, the results, and helping them take care of their skin,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s like coming to see a friend, not just a waxer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-166741\" src=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"plants at ms annie's waxing studio\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-640x853.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-scaled.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-1170x1560.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/01\/Plants-at-Ms-Annies-waxing-585x780.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This ethos extends to her team \u201cWe try to be happy and enjoy what we do, and that translates into the customer service we provide,\u201d Annie said.

We want to help them take care of their skin,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Both men and women are welcome in the salon.

She is a born-and-raised Beltway insider, and life brought her to New Jersey. She started working with the team as a freelance copy editor, started writing more, and learned that New Jersey does, in fact, have the best pizza and bagels in all the land. When she and her husband moved back to the DC area, she brought TLG along and is working on The Fairfax Girl, TLG's first licensee. Stephanie has a background in public policy, working for nearly 20 years in and around the federal government and is a licensed attorney. She has an undergraduate degree in journalism from the University of Richmond and a juris doctorate from the Catholic University of America, Columbus School of Law.","url":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/author\/stephanies\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/362"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=166735"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/166735\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/166741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=166735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=166735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/fairfax\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=166735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
