WAXING & SUGARING

Waxing and sugaring are hair removal techniques that have been around since the beginning of time. Both techniques lift hair from the root of the hair follicle and have a longer effect on the skin than shaving. However, the two involve very different techniques for getting rid of hair.

​

In waxing, the gently warmed preheated wax is applied in a thin layer over the skin in the direction of the hair growth with a wooden spatula. There's no double dipping and a new spatula is used every time wax is applied. The aesthetician then uses a cotton strip to pull hair against the direction of your hair follicle's growth pattern. This results in hair removal from the root only, leaving the bulb intact.

​

Body Sugaring is an ancient art of hair removal using completely natural paste made from sugar, lemon and water. With sugaring, wax is at room temperature. The aesthetician applies the cooled paste to the skin using their hands. The sugar is smoothed onto the skin in the opposite direction of the follicle's hair growth. It's then removed in a quick motion called "flicking".
