What is body sugaring?
Body Sugaring is the process of using natural ingredients like sugar, lemon and water to make an all-natural paste that is used to remove hair on the body instead of wax. It is a gentle and safe method of hair removal for all body and skin types and since there are no harsh chemicals, even the most sensitive of skins can enjoy hair removal with less pain.
Is sugaring as painful as waxing?
Body Sugaring is much less painful than waxing due to room temperature paste (no burning!) and pulling out hair in the direction it grows.
How long should my hair be for sugaring to work
Sugaring can be done with as little as 1/4 of an inch of hair however having your hair 1/8th of an inch long will deliver much better results.
My skin is slightly irritated and bumpy after my appointment. What should I do?
If you are experiencing slight discomfort after a Sugaring appointment, this is completely normal and should go away after 24 hours at the latest. You can apply a cold press or a cool soothing cream to the area to alleviate any pain that may be caused. If you have a reaction in the form of hives, take an antihistamine or contact your doctor.
How long should I wait in between sugaring appointments?
The answer to this question varies depending on the individual’s hair growth cycle, however generally we recommend once every 4-6 weeks. If you are unsure when you should come in, please ask us the next time you visit and we can assess your individual needs.
What is the difference between Brazilian, bikini and g-string hair removal?
With a Brazilian, you are removing all pubic hair. For a bikin, we remove the hair along the sides and top of your bikini line. Basically anything that would show if you were to were bikini bottoms. A g-string is the same as a bikini in essence however we also make sure to do hair removal in the back so that any hair that may peak out when you where a g-string will be removed.
I often have ingrown hairs. What can I do to alleviate this?
If you have problems with ingrown hairs, there are a few things that you can do to help with this. The most important thing you can do is exfoliate. Using a brush, loofa, cloth or other exfoliating devices you will be able to remove any dead skin cells that may trap newly grow hair and cause painful ingrown hairs. Another thing you can do is ensure that your skin is always moisturized. Whenever you get your skin wet in the shower or swimming, be sure to apply a moisturizer afterwards.
