Q: What is sugaring?

A: Sugaring is a method of hair removal that has been in use since 1900 BC, an ancient middle-eastern practice uses an all natural paste or gel made from food-derived ingredients like sugar, water, and lemon juice to remove the hair follicle from the root. The results can last up to six weeks. While there are many recipes, only natural ingredients are used in real recipe. It’s also been called sugar waxing, although not a correct term, because it’s done very similar to waxing.

Q: What is the different between sugaring and normal wax?

• Product
  Sugaring – Sugaring products never adhere to live skin cells. Therefore, when it is removed, it only gently exfoliates dead skin cells, leaving behind glowing skin. And because sugaring paste is all natural and water soluble, it can be easily rinsed away if it is accidentally flicked on a clothes or residue is left on skin.
• Direction of hair pulling out
  Sugaring -With the sugaring method, you only remove the hair in the natural direction of the hair growth. Plus, through the sugaring application technique, the sugar paste seeps into the hair follicle. This helps lubricate the hair root allowing the root to remove completely without breaking and with less pain.
• No risk of burning
  Sugaring is done at body temperature. There’s no need for heat. Sugaring treatment adheres to the hair, not the skin, and lubricates the root for easier removal from the follicle. Combined with the hair removal in the natural direction of growth, sugaring means a much less damaging experience for you.
