Meet Andrea Arnold
Founder & Owner
Hello! I'm Andrea Arnold, founder and owner of Haute Hair Removal, where every consultation and treatment is performed by me personally. Originally from Memphis, Tennessee, I've proudly called North Carolina home since 1990 and am grateful to serve clients throughout Cary, Raleigh, and the surrounding Triangle area.
I graduated from Appalachian State University with a bachelor's degree in Political Science and later earned a certificate from Duke University's Paralegal Program. After graduation, I began my career as a paralegal with plans to attend law school. While I enjoyed the work, I realized I was looking for a career that allowed me to combine my passion for aesthetics with the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people's lives.
My interest in permanent hair removal developed through years of working in the cosmetic, skincare, and textile industries. A chance encounter with a local Electrologist introduced me to a profession that perfectly blended science, artistry, and personal care. I knew I had found the career I had been searching for. In 2007, I left the corporate world to pursue specialized training, graduating from the Electrolysis Institute of New England, the Rocky Mountain Laser College, and the London Make-Up School.
Over the next several years, I gained extensive experience providing electrolysis and laser hair removal treatments while helping clients feel more confident in their own skin. In 2019, I founded Haute Hair Removal to create the type of practice I had always envisioned—one centered on personalized care, honesty, and lasting results. As the only practitioner, I personally guide every client from consultation through treatment, ensuring consistency, continuity of care, and an experience tailored to their individual goals.
Outside the treatment room, I remain committed to serving my community and supporting my profession. Since 2010, I've been an active member of the Junior League of Raleigh, helping raise funds for organizations dedicated to supporting youth, strengthening communities, and advancing equal rights. I have also proudly served the Greater Piedmont Electrolysis Association as President, Second Vice President, and Secretary, and remain an active member of the American Electrology Association.
Whether you're considering electrolysis or laser hair removal for the first time or continuing your permanent hair removal journey, I look forward to welcoming you to Haute Hair Removal and helping you achieve your goals in a professional, comfortable, and supportive environment.
