What is sugaring, and why all the hype?

Sugaring is not a new method. In fact, it's a centuries old method practiced as far back as the early Egyptians. The most important advantage of sugaring is that the sugar paste extracts the hair in its natural direction of growth while the hair is in its early growth stage. This dramatically reduces hair breakage, unnecessary discomfort, irritation and ingrown hairs while also exfoliating the skin. 

Sugar paste...Huh?

The sugar paste used is an eco-friendly formulation made exclusively from 3 ingredients... Sugar, water, and lemon juice. Really... that's it. 

 But does it last as long as other methods?

You show that hair who's boss! As sugaring is a form of epilation (removing hair from the root), the growth will reduce over time with prolonged treatments. In most cases due to the hair follicle being damaged from the service; hair grows back thinner, sparser, and can lead to permanency. While all body types and areas grow at separate rates,the average time span between appointments for the lower body areas typically range from 4-6 weeks.

 Ok Ok, I get it. But wait...Am I a candidate?

 Yes.. actually, you are! The ideal hair length to mold the sugar is 1/4" - 1/2" (or about the length of a grain of rice). If you've been shaving, this tends to be around the 10-14 day mark. Let's say you haven't been shaving... No worries there either as the sugar will also remove longer lengths. Oh, your pregnant you say... rest assured this applies to everyone from 1-39 weeks.

So that's it I guess...How do I prepare for my apointment?

Pretty straight forward stuff here. You'll need to avoid the use of deodorant, oil, or any lotions on areas to be treated. Exfoliating within 24 hours of appointment is also a no-no (the sugar will have you covered). Lastly, do not trim hair length! Your sugarist has this handled. We promise.
