About Harley Shayna Skin
Dover, NH’s Newest Facial & Waxing Studio
An esthetician-led studio built around one belief: the foundation of every great skin treatment is a healthy skin barrier.
Barrier-first | Inflammation-conscious | Results that last
Our Mission
Healthy skin starts with a healthy barrier
At Harley Shayna Skin, we believe the foundation of every great skin treatment is a healthy skin barrier. When the barrier is intact and functioning, skin can do what it’s designed to do: stay hydrated, stay balanced, and protect itself.
Our Approach
Working with your skin, not against it
That belief shapes our entire approach — and it isn’t a philosophy we apply selectively.
Heal & Support
Every treatment is designed to heal and support the skin — never to force results at the expense of it.
Minimize Inflammation
By working with the skin’s natural processes, we significantly reduce the risk of post-inflammatory outcomes like PIE, PIH, and melasma.
One Standard
The same standard is behind every facial, every peel, every wax, and every product recommendation we make.
Meet Harley
Founder & Lead Esthetician
Harley is the founder and lead esthetician of Harley Shayna Skin, bringing a depth of training and clinical insight that goes well beyond a standard esthetics education.
Harley earned her license through a rigorous apprenticeship requiring twice the training hours of a traditional esthetics program, giving her hands-on, in-depth experience most estheticians never receive. She holds advanced certifications in acne treatment and extractions, and has pursued extensive self-directed research into fascia’s role in skin health and the nutritional factors — vitamins, minerals, and the processes they support — that determine how skin heals and functions.
Living with hEDS and MCAS gave Harley a firsthand understanding of how connective tissue, inflammation, and structure interact — knowledge that now informs the barrier-first, inflammation-conscious protocols she uses with every client.
Training & Expertise
Training that goes beyond the standard
A foundation built on hands-on experience, advanced certification, and a deep curiosity about how skin actually works.

The HSS Difference
Long-term skin health, not just short-term results
This background is what allows Harley Shayna Skin to look past surface-level treatment and address the skin’s actual function: how it heals, how it protects itself, and how it responds to stimuli over time. The result is a studio built around treatments that support long-term skin health.
