​Body sugaring is a natural hair removal technique using sugar and lemon as the main ingredients in the hair removal paste. Sugaring is gentle enough to be used on sensitive skin and over areas of eczema, varicose veins and psoriasis. 
​
The sugaring technique utilizes a sugar paste that is massaged into the skin by hand at lukewarm temperature. This alternative natural method removes the entire hair as well as the bulb and leaves the skin soft, healthy and smooth for weeks

Sugaring paste can be applied more than once to the same area as is does not stick to the skin; it exfoliates only dead skin cells, which results in a more thorough removal of the hair. There is a greater diminishment of hair growth because the hair is removed completely including the root with the direction of hair growth leaving no broken hairs in the follicle.

Preparation

  • Cleanse the area to be Sugared thoroughly before your appointment.
  • Do not exfoliate the day before your sugaring service.
  • Avoid putting any perfumes, creams, lotions or deodorants on the skin to be sugared 24 hours before treatment. This may cause the removal of hair to be more difficult.
  • For your comfort, it is recommended that you not sunbathe or use a tanning bed for 48 hours prior to or after any treatment. 
  • The hairs must be at least the length of a grain of rice (1/4 inch). 
  • Some women find that their skin is extra-sensitive when they are pre-menstrual. 

After Treatment

  • You will leave your treatment with your skin smooth and moisturized. Your skin will be a bit more sensitive so it is recommended that you avoid fragranced soap, deodorants and lotions for 4-6 hours after treatment.
  • Exfoliation with a loofah mitt, or dry brush is recommended once or twice a week to reduce any chance of ingrown hairs. This is particularly important for the back, legs, bikini and underarm areas.
  • If your skin is more sensitive, you may experience temporary redness. This reaction is normal, and most commonly disappears an hour or two after treatment.
  • Avoid direct heat such as hot baths, or sun-tanning immediately following a treatment.
  • Excessive perspiration may irritate the skin directly after a treatment so do not workout immediately afterwards.
