Body Sugaring
What is sugaring?
Sugaring is a form of hair removal. The sugar paste is made of sugar, lemon & water. The paste is applied to the skin in the opposite direction of hair growth and is removed in the direction of growth. The sugar is applied by hand at room temperature, eliminating the need for sticks & strips
Benefits of sugaring
- Natural ingredients
- Adheres to dead skin cells only, therefore exfoliating the skin
- Less abrasive than waxing
- No lingering pain or discomfort
- Sugar is heated to room temperature so no chance of burning
- Sugaring is safe during pregnancy
- Sugaring prevents & eliminates ingrown hairs as the sugar exfoliates and removes dead skin
- Eventually the hair follicle depletes so the hair come back thinner and fewer each time
