Waxing/Sugaring

Sugaring and waxing are hair removal processes that have been used for many years. Waxing and sugaring are usually listed together as hair removal techniques since both techniques remove hair from the root and have a longer impact on the skin than shaving. However, they are two very different techniques.

Waxing uses a strip to remove your hair in the opposite direction of the follicle growth pattern. Sugaring involves the hair being pulled in the natural direction of the follicle’s growth pattern. Waxing is also used at a high temperature, while sugaring is used at room temperature.

Sugaring is considered an organic way of removing hair using sugar paste mixed with lemon juice and sugar. It resembles waxing but is gentle on the skin and is all-natural. Sugar also tends to hurt much less than waxing since it pulls less on the skin while removing the hair. Sugaring also has less irritation and redness than other methods of hair removal. The way the sugaring is done also helps reduce pain. We can also put honey or essential oils in the sugar recipe if you would like.

Waxing is a very effective method for getting rid of unwanted body hair. It removes hair from the root by using a sticky substance, like wax, to adhere to body hair. You remove this covering and pull out the hair from the follicle. New hair does not grow in the waxed area for about four to six weeks. Eyebrows, face, legs, arms, back, abdomen, public hair, chest, feet, and knuckles are areas that can be waxed. Waxing leaves super-smooth results, but it can be painful.
