Sugaring is an all-natural and eco-friendly approach to removing unwanted body and facial hair. The sugar paste is kept at lukewarm body temperature and is applied against the natural growth direction. The paste is then removed in the same direction as the hair growth using a “flicking technique” which removes the hair from its root. Also taking with it any dead skin cells. This results in hair follicles weakening over time leaving hair softer and more sparse when it grows back. Continuing with regular sugaring leads to a reduction in hair growth and the end result is smooth, hairless skin that lasts anywhere from 4-6 weeks!

After care is key to long lasting smooth skin!
After your appointment, avoid anything that will make you sweat and don't apply any moisturizer for deodorants for 24 hours. Wait 48 hours and then start exfoliating every other day. Moisturize your skin and do not, I repeat - DO NOT shave between appointments. Shaving will undo all of your progress. Razors cut hair mid-shaft making the hair grow back strong and course. Not to mention it grows back within hours or days. And EXFOLIATE again! Exfoliating regularly will help keep those pesky ingrown hairs at bay.
