Sugar Hair Removal
Sugar hair removal or sugaring is a mixture of sugar, lemon, and water mixed together to create a sticky paste that clings to the hair. The process effectively removes the hair and many report that it is less uncomfortable than wax and gentler on the skin. Sugaring has always been considered the most effective, less painful, natural form of hair removal. Our sugar paste is made of just sugar, lemon & water! Sugaring is known to prevent ingrown hairs making it the ideal way to remove all unwanted hair.
There won't be a strip of paper to remove the sugar. We apply the sugar paste in the opposite direction of the hair growth, which allows the paste to enter the follicle and wrap around each hair shaft individually. They with a flicking motion we remove the paste, along with the hair, in the natural direction of hair growth.
FAQ
​
Should I Sugar?
For most people with sensitive skin, the answer is YES. But just in case, here is a list of contraindications. Showing signs of rashing, open and or abraded skin, active lesion of Herpes Simplex I/II, or sunburn cannot receive sugaring services. Anyone using Accutane within the past 6 months, Retin A, Renova, Differin, or Avita within the past 5 days. Anyone having just received dermabrasion or a peel cannot be sugared in the area that has been treated.
Prep + Post Care for Sugar Hair Removal
To get the best service we require that you have no less than 2.5 weeks of growth after your last shave. You must have no less than 3 weeks of hair growth after your last sugar or wax.
Do not exfoliate the area being sugared 24 hours prior to your appointment. Arrive to your appointment with clean skin, no lotion or oils. Please do not consume stimulants of any kind prior to sugaring.
Your home care is simple. Medical experts advise waiting 24 hours after a Brazilian to get intimate with a partner. Avoid exposing your sugared skin to sweat, sun, hot tubs, pools and cosmetic products with fragrance for 12 hours.
Can I get sugared right before I get an airbrush tan?
Of course! We strongly suggest it. Exfoliation and skipping shaving—especially if you opt for sugaring on your legs or arms—will help your spray tan last longer.
