What is Body Sugaring?

Sugaring is an ancient method of hair removal using a mixture of all natural ingredients - sugar, water & lemon juice. The sugar paste only adheres to the hair and dead skin, making it a safe option for sensitive skin types. It is also less irritating and less painful than other hair removal options.
Overtime, sugaring can lead to permanent hair reduction or loss when the hair is extracted at 1/4” (the Anagen phase).

Preparing for your appointment

• Hair should be at least 1/4” or longer, especially for your first appointment (longer is better). This is usually 2 weeks after you’ve shaved.

• No body lotion the day before and day of on areas getting sugared. No deodorant the day of if under arms are being sugared.

• Do not exfoliate day before or day of your appointment.

• Do not book your appointment if you have been out in the sun prior to or have just exercised. Having a higher body temperature will manipulate how the sugar paste adheres to the hair & skin.

After Care Instructions

• Do not put anything on the area(s) sugared for 24 hours post appointment. No moisturizer, deodorant, or makeup. This will help prevent ingrown hairs, blackheads, or adverse reactions.

• Avoid tanning, sweating, and hot tubs for 24 hours.

• Exfoliating is very important! Make sure you exfoliate 2-3 times per week or the new hairs can get trapped under the dead skin and we won’t be able to get the hairs out at your next appointment.

• We recommend pre-booking your next appointments approximately 3 weeks apart, depending on the area. The more often you get sugared, the longer the hair stays away after each visit. Eventually this will lead to permanent hair loss.
