Tami Kanning, L.E.
Tami has been a Licensed Electrologist since early 2006. She is licensed in both Oregon and Montana, with the required 600 hours that she received at The American Institute of Education in Long Beach, CA in 2005. She continues to expand her knowledge by attending seminars and continuing education in electrology, as well as many other medical and alternative medical treatments.
Tami became an electrologist following in her mother’s and sister’s footsteps. Together they have been practicing electrology for over 40 years! Doing electrolysis came naturally to Tami, having grown up around it and practicing on family since a young age. She jokes that it must be genetic.
Prior to becoming a licensed electrologist, Tami worked as an herbalist in Montana for 10 years. She owns an herbal manufacturing company called Body’s Choice Herbs, that makes blends of herbs and flower essences in tincture form.
Tami is married and has three children. Tami enjoys travel, visiting the ocean and continuing to learn about indigenous plants & people, and about medicine and the human body.
“The most rewarding part of being an electrologist,” she says, “is getting to watch my clients’ self confidence grow with each treatment. The results can be enjoyed right away, and it is great to see them leaving happy. Whether it’s because of self-consciousness, or just because it’s convenient to have young eyes find those hairs, they all leave feeling better—and that’s very gratifying!”
Anthony Kanning, L.E.T.
Anthony is a 3rd generation electrologist. His grandmother, Tana, started electrolysis over 30 years ago after she experienced life changing effects from electrolysis services to treat her excess hair from Hirsutism. With 5 other family members following in Tana’s footsteps there was a great pool of experience for him to learn from. He is undergoing an apprenticeship with his mother, Tami, as a Licensed Electrolysis Trainee (licensed by the OHA). He works in the same office as her and aspires to follow in the footsteps of his family providing quality and compassionate care. He specializes in insurance work as well as LGBTQ+ gender affirming care. As a Queer Trans Man, he understands the struggles of gender dysphoria and what a difference this service can provide to those seeking to experience peace and comfort in their own body!
