WAX OR SUGAR

Which one is right for you?

Two methods.One smooth result.

Wax and Sugaring both remove hair from the root.Both leave you smooth the difference is in the technique.

Wax is a flexible, resin based wax applied with the direction of the hair growth and is removed against it. Hard wax works especially well on coarse, dense, or longer hair and is a great choice for both first time and regular clients.

Made from sugar water, and lemon, sugar paste is applied by hand against the direction of hair growth and removed with the natural growth pattern. It’s a great choice for clients who prefer a simple ingredient method and regular sugar maintenance.

NEW TO HAIR REMOVAL?

If you’ve never been waxed or sugared, or you have longer growth, I may recommend starting with wax. Longer hair can create more tugging during sugar application.Once your hair is a more manageable length, you can continue waxing or try sugaring the best choice comes down to your hair, skin, and personal preference.
