Where Professional Sugaring Began
Alexandria Professional® didn’t follow the sugaring movement, we created it.
For over 30 years, we’ve defined the global standard in professional body sugaring through advanced education, proprietary formulations, and proven methodologies. Built on the foundation of The Kennedy Theory® and the globally recognized 6 STEPS to Perfect Sugaring, our education is the benchmark others strive to match.
Today, that same uncompromising standard of education extends into our Online Academy. Designed to mirror the depth, structure, and integrity of our in-person training, our digital programs deliver a complete, intensive learning experience—now accessible to practitioners anywhere in the world.

Meet Your Teachers
Direct Instruction from the Global Sugar Queen
Your training is led by Lina Kennedy, the global “Sugar Queen” and founder of Alexandria Professional®. Every module is pre-recorded with intention, precision, and decades of expertise so you can learn directly from the source, exactly as it was designed to be taught.
With Lina, you’ll master:
- The Kennedy Theory® – understanding the “why” behind the benefits of sugaring.
- The 6 STEPS to Perfect Sugaring – the globally recognized technique for the most gentle & effective results.
- Advanced application strategies for different body areas and hair types
This is more than watching videos. You're being taught by the pioneer who defined the industry.
Lina also offers mentorship sessions for those seeking business, product, or technique advice.
REAL SUPPORT. REAL GUIDANCE.

How long does the Alexandria Professional® Certification Course last?
expand_more
Our Professional Body Sugaring Certification Course is completely self-paced. The timeline depends on each individual’s learning style and the amount of practice they put in. You’ll have full access for one year, giving you plenty of time to complete your training and refine your technique.
Once I am registered, what type of support is available to me to help me complete my certification?
expand_more
We are with you every step of the way to ensure you get the most out of this program and you are ready to start practicing. To this end, we have Ongoing Virtual Face to Face Support available to you with an AP certified educator.
Is a kit required to take a Certification Course?
expand_more
Yes! All course participants are required to purchase a minimum Starter Kit, with the following two exceptions:
- Students registered in a beauty school can purchase the minimum of a Practice Kit.
- Salons/spas having more than one-course participants may purchase a minimum Starter Kit plus one Practice Kit for each course participant.
Important note! The cost of the kit is already included in class costs.
How do the assessments and virtual educator support work?
expand_more
Your video assessment is simple. You’ll film yourself completing the required techniques and submit your videos directly through the course platform. This allows our educators to evaluate your positioning, application, removal, and overall execution in a real-world setting.
Once submitted, your AP-certified educator will carefully review your work and provide detailed feedback—either in written form or through a recorded video response so you can clearly see what to refine and how to improve. If additional guidance is needed, your educator may invite you to a one-on-one video call to walk through technique adjustments in real time.
For ongoing support, you’re never on your own:
- You can email your educator anytime to request a private video call when you feel you need extra help.
- Inside the course, there’s a private chat feature to connect directly with your educator.
- You can also leave notes or questions directly on lessons, allowing you to get clarity exactly where you need it most.
If I run out of products prior to completing my course, can I order new products?
expand_more
Yes, you can. Practice is important to set you up for success with the AP treatments in your salon.
I am almost out of time to complete my course and need an extension.
expand_more
If you are nearing the end of your one-year access period and don’t believe you’ll be able to complete the course in time, please contact us right away. If there is a specific reason preventing you from finishing, we can pause your enrollment until you’re ready to resume.
Should you need additional time beyond the standard one-year allotment, we do offer an extension option. For a fee of $150, you can receive an additional 3 months of access to complete your course and certification requirements. This allows you the flexibility to continue your training without losing the progress you’ve already made.
I’ve enrolled and don’t wish to continue, can I get a refund?
expand_more
We understand that sometimes learning something new can feel overwhelming, but please remember that your educator is here to guide and support you every step of the way. If you’re struggling, we encourage you to reach out to your educator directly for extra help, tips, or clarification. You can also connect with Alexandria Professional corporate for additional resources, including live chats and ongoing support, to ensure you feel confident in your progress.
Because the Professional Body Sugaring Certification Course provides immediate access to training materials upon enrollment, we are unable to offer refunds once enrollment has been completed. This policy helps protect the integrity of the program and ensures fairness for all participants. We encourage you to take full advantage of the one-year access period, ongoing educator support, and supplemental resources available to you before making a final decision about discontinuing your training.
Do I need to be a licensed beauty professional to perform sugaring treatments?
expand_more
Although some companies may tell you that you do not need to be licensed to sugar, in the US and many other countries, you must hold a valid cosmetology/aesthetics license to perform any type of hair removal. Check with your state to see if they offer a shorter-term license specific to waxing hair removal which will then qualify you to perform professional sugaring treatments as well.
In some states, you may find that the State Board of Cosmetology allows a person to offer beauty treatments (including sugaring) if it is not listed in their roster of licensing regulations.
If you’re an unlicensed professional, it is your responsibility to check with your state board of cosmetology for all licensing regulations.
My salon/spa already carries and uses Alexandria Professional® products and treatments. Do you offer reduced education course rates?
expand_more
Yes! If your salon or spa is an active account with AP, we offer a reduced course fee for each additional student coming from that salon/spa for our Body Sugaring Certification Course. Please Contact Us to find out more.
I am a student enrolled in a Beauty School. Can I still get certified?
expand_more
Yes! With proof of enrollment at a beauty school, you may sign up for our courses.
Does Alexandria Professional® offer ongoing education?
expand_more
Yes, we do! Check out our masterclasses.
What happens if I don’t pass the Kennedy Theory® Course?
expand_more
Each theory quiz is designed as a learning tool and you can take each quiz as many times as you need to learn and pass. The goal is to help you with information retention!
Does my distributor offer the AP Academy for certification?
