Sugaring vs Waxing
Sugaring
Waxing
​​
-
Wax is often made with harsh chemicals, fragrances and ingredients that tend to irritate and inflame the skin.
​
-
Wax undergoes a hot liquefying process which increases the likelihood of burning the skin.
​
-
Waxing removes a live layer of skin cells leaving the skin hyper sensitive and often raw after a treatment.
​
​
-
Hair is removed in the opposite direction of growth which creates a snapping effect which can lead to breakage and ingrown hairs.
​
-
It’s recommended to have at least four to six weeks weeks of hair growth before being waxed.
​
​
-
Wax is not water-soluble and needs to be removed with wax remover, petroleum jelly or baby oil.
​
-
Bacteria breeds in the wax pots and double dipping in the wax jar is extremely common and highly unsanitary.
​​
-
Sugaring is made with 100% organic ingredients: Lemon, sugar and water.
​
​
​
-
Sugaring paste is lukewarm and soothing to the skin.
​
​
-
Sugaring paste is a natural exfoliant that removes dead skin cells and can even make the appearance of tattoos more vibrant.
​
-
Sugar paste seeps into the follicle fully removing the hair. This process avoids breakage and in grown hairs.
​
​
-
After receiving consistent sugaring treatments the hair follicle begins to deplete making hair growth more refined after each service.
​
-
The depletion of the hair follicles can potentially lead to permanency.
​
​
-
Sugaring can extract hairs as short as 1/16" when receiving consistent sugaring treatments.
​
​
-
Sugaring is water-soluble making unwanted residue on your skin or clothing easily removable.
​
-
Sugaring’s natural ingredients are not only beneficial to the skin but to the environment as well.
​
-
Bacteria will not breed in the sugar solution and unsanitary double dipping is not an option.
