Lana Syreeta, a licensed esthetician, is the owner and operator of Sal Terrae Wax. Sal Terrae Wax is a premier wax and body spa emphasizing holistic wellness located in Washington, D.C.  Lana's path of holistic wellness first began after having been inspired by her mother's work as a hairstylist specializing in trichology (the scientific study of hair and scalp health) years before "healthy hair" became an oft-discussed focal point in hair care.

At 24, Lana set out on her holistic path, having spent the past 11 years studying how wellness applies to beauty, nutrition, routine, spiritual ritual, and other areas of life. Latin for "salt of the earth" or contemporarily defined as “basic, fundamental goodness,” it was along this path she envisioned the concept for Sal Terrae Wax, a spa experience shifting the waxing paradigm through healing, relaxation, and wellness. "I have built all of my knowledge, wisdom, and understanding into the fabric of Sal Terrae Wax. It is in the dna of my business." Watching her mother overcome addiction through the healing of others while working in cosmetology, however, was the foremost reason that moved Lana to provide a healing space of her own. “My mother worked hard to overcome her battle with drug addiction and alcoholism and did so partially through becoming a hairstylist. It is in her honor I am building this brand.”
