About Sugaring:
Sugaring is a 100% natural method of hair removal, often considered a less painful alternative to waxing.
Sugaring involves using a paste made simply of sugar, water & lemons (citric acid). This unique method originated in Ancient Egypt and has been modernised and perfected for professional treatments. Your therapist will use a professional paste and products (all vegan and organic) to complete your treatment(s).
The Process of Sugaring
1. The sugar paste is slowly applied on to the skin using a sterile-gloved hand, against the direction of hair growth.
2. The paste is moulded a few times, to ensure adhesion to the hairs and dead skin cells
3. The paste is gently and quickly flicked off, revealing hairless and glowing skin!
Once you start Sugaring, you will notice that even after one session your hairs will become thinner, more sparse and grow back slower! This is because Sugaring removes the hair directly from the root. With repeated sessions, your roots become easier to remove and smaller, and therefore hairs become THINNER, SPARSER, GROWS SLOWER & sugaring becomes LESS PAINFUL! Once you try it and see the results, you will totally convert to sugaring and ditch the wax, razors or hair removal cream!
Sugaring has seen a surge in popularity as it is an eco-friendly treatment - the paste is biodegradable, and gloves and tools used are also biodegradable/eco-conscious. Sugaring is kind to both your skin and the planet.
Benefits of Sugaring:
- Paste ONLY adheres to DEAD skin cells & hair - waxing adheres to LIVE skin as well, making it more traumatic
- less painful and leaves the skin less irritated (as it does not adhere to live skin)
- is' only warmed to body temperature so no risk of burning (wax is heated very hot, can burn skin)
- paste DOES NOT contain any resins or artificial ingredients (wax does contain resins)
- leaves skin exfoliated, smooth and soft
- pulls hair in the NATURAL direction of hair growth
- LESS INGROWN HAIRS
- LESS BREAKAGE of hairs
- hair is extracted from the ROOT (with waxing root is left in skin and breakage of hair is common)
- sugaring lasts slightly longer than waxing
- more eco-friendly - no sticks or strips are used. All products are sustainably sourced and minimal waste.
- sensitive-skin friendly
- pregnant-friendly
