Sugaring
Half arm sugaring: natural hair removal using a paste of sugar, lemon and water. Hair is removed from the root, leaving skin smooth for weeks. Covers wrist to elbow.
Smooth forearms.
Sugaring is similar to waxing: hair is removed from the root. The paste is made from lemon, water and sugar, heated to a candy-like consistency and applied once it cools. It's flicked off in the direction of hair growth, which many clients find kinder on the skin than traditional wax.
For 24 to 48 hours avoid hot baths, saunas, sun, tight clothing over the area and perfumed products. Start gentle exfoliation after 48 hours to help prevent ingrown hairs.
Sugar paste is water-soluble and natural, so any residue rinses away easily. Hair should be about 3 to 5 mm long. Let us know if you use retinoid skincare or are on medication that thins the skin or blood.
