Sugaring FAQs

---

Sugaring is a gentle, natural alternative to waxing procedures. It's safe for face and full body, especially the sensitive areas. The sugar paste ball consists of natural ingredients such as lemon, sugar and water. Rest assured that the sugar paste ball is single use and gets tossed away after each client. Therefore, it's much safer than most waxing procedures.

-Exfoliating 3 times a week is recommended to avoid ingrown hairs.
However, avoid exfoliating on the day of your appointment.
-Avoid lotions & oils on the day of your appointment.
-Avoid spray tanning before sugaring because sugaring may remove the color.
-Avoid caffeine as it may cause skin sensitivity.
-After your last shave, hair must be grown out for about 2 weeks. Hair must be about the size of grain of rice.

-On the day of your Brazilian/Bikini sugaring appointment, it’s recommended to wear loose-fitted bottoms. Doing so will avoid any occlusive affect and allow adequate airflow post sugaring.

-For the first 24 hours, avoid exercise because sweat and bacteria could irritate your skin and clog pores.

-Avoid touching your newly sugared, smooth skin because hands carry bacteria and that could potentially cause an infection to freshly opened pores.

-Avoid lotions with fragrance and harsh chemicals.

-Avoid exfoliation for the first 48 hrs. after your appointment.

-Avoid salt water pools/ocean/sauna for the first 24-48. hrs.

Daily skincare routine is very important to achieve optimal results for soft and  beautiful skin. 

-It's recommended to exfoliate your skin about 3 times a week and moisturize daily. When your skin is gently exfoliated, this process helps slough off the dead skin build up. In addition, when your skin is moisturized daily, the hair has a safe environment to grow through the skin.

-Please be advised that if you exfoliate only without moisturizing your skin, the skin can become dry and the hairs can get stuck resulting in unpleasant ingrown hairs.

-Consistency is key when it comes to sugaring. It's recommended to schedule your sugaring appointments every 3 weeks to achieve less hair density and a pain free experience.
