Sugaring hair removal is different than waxing. With waxing hair removal, hot wax is applied with a spatula in the direction of the hair growth, cloth strips are applied to the wax and the hair is removed with the strip in the OPPOSITE direction of hair growth, causing discomfort and breaking of the hair. The sugaring technique uses a thick lukewarm sugar mixture that is applied in the opposite direction of hair growth using the hands. It's then flicked off quickly, in the SAME direction as the hair growth resulting in less breakage, less pain, no ingrown hairs and will never tear the skin! No strips, no spatulas, and no mess! And, the best part is that repeated sugaring can lead to permanency.
With most waxes, you can apply the wax only once to a limited area. Attempting to remove additional hair from the same area can result in a burn, removal of skin and possibly scarring. With sugaring you can speed things up by applying the paste to a very large area and it can be repeated as often as necessary to completely remove the missed hairs in that same area. Sugar won't dry out and is extremely sanitary because the amount of paste used to remove the hair from one area of your body can continue to be used for multiple body parts making it risk free of cross-contamination. Sugar is water soluble, meaning any residue left on the skin can be removed with plain water, unlike regular wax which requires a solvent or oil.
Some hair growth is needed. 1/16 of an inch is needed when using the traditional sugaring technique, which is about 2-5 days of hair growth after shaving.
Sugaring doesn't attach to live skin cells. Sugaring will only take away dead skin cells, unlike waxing which also removes live skin cells. If you're skin is already over-exfoliated (using glycolic, Retin A or peels) you don't have to worry about the sugar accidentally removing skin; it is completely safe to use with these treatments as well as those with skin conditions like rosacea, eczema and varicose veins.
The Brazilian Bikini is one of the most requested sugaring services. Mollie is most efficient and makes every woman feel at ease during the treatment. At Essencia, she takes the time to properly prep the area before sugaring and then soothe the skin after the treatment.
Male clients really appreciate sugaring because of the benefits of less pain and ingrown hairs. The most popular areas are the back and chest.
Each individual is different when it comes to hair texture, rate of growth, etcetera. so experimentation is needed to see if sugaring hair removal is a viable method for you.
Sugaring hair removal is a very popular, economical, safe, and convenient method of hair removal. Using natural ingredients, sugaring hair removal is generally more kind to the skin.
