Have questions? here are some great commonly asked questions that might help!
What is Sugar Waxing?
Sugaring is a method of hair removal using a 100% natural paste made up of only sugar, lemon, and water. The sugar paste is applied by hand and removed in the direction of your hair growth. This drastically reduces the occurrence of hair breakage, painful ingrown hairs and also allows us to remove smaller, harder to grab hair.
I’m planning a vacation when should I get sugared?
We truly prefer 2-3 visits prior to your trip - which should be 2-3 months before then for best results! This allows us to get your hair on the same growth cycle to ensure we are removing all the hair from the root. If this isn’t possible thats totally fine! we suggest about 3 days prior to your vacation.
What is the difference between a bikini, extended bikini, and Brazilian?
Bikini - is a basic tidy up, we clean up the panty line and a crossed the top, for a tidy bikini area.
Extended Bikini - is that little bit further in on the sides and on top.
Brazilian - removes all of the hair. You can leave as much or as little hair as you want on the top.
Can I be sugared on my cycle?
Yes. We are comfortable if you are. Just a reminder you are more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
Do I need to prepare for my appointment?
Please do not put deodorant on prior to an underarm sugar, and avoid any lotion on the areas getting sugared that day.
Exfoliation is key between sugaring appointments, just not the day before or day of your appointment.
Here is one of our favourites to help with exfoliating between appointments !
Do you get less in-growns with sugaring?
Yes!
Sugar is removed the same way the hair grows, causing less hair breakage, making it less painful and keeping ingrowns to a minimum.
Exfoliating is a big part in keeping those pesky ingrowns away, Here is a great option to help with them !
Does it hurt, if shaving prior?
Your first appointment is the worst due to the fact that the bulb, at the base of the hair is enlarged. Your second appointment the pain is almost cut in half. The more you sugar the weaker the roots get and the easier it is to remove the hair. Hair will grow back much softer, not as coarse and a lot more sparse.
How do I avoid ingrown hairs?
Exfoliation is key and keeping the skin clean and moisturized.
We carry a full line of products that are packed with high quality ingredients to soothe and smooth the skin, treat and prevent ingrowns, soften and refine hair growth.
How long does the hair have to be?
The hair should be about ¼ of an inch long, like a grain of rice. For best results clients should have a minimum of 2 weeks growth to ensure optimal results. For legs we recommend 3 weeks.
I have sensitive skin, can I be sugared?
Yes! Sugar adheres to your hair, not your skin, leaving the skin feeling smooth and hair free, not raw and irritated. Any pigment or type of hair can be removed. Also it is 100% safe during your entire pregnancy. It is made up of only lemon, sugar and water. That’s all!
