Sugaring
Effectiveness
6 - 8 weeks
Hair is removed from the Root
Notes
Minimum length of hair 5mm, once the roots become weaker with
continued use the hair does not need to be this long.
The method of applying Moom, our main sugaring product, is
the same as that previously described for waxing.
Before
waxing or sugaring wash using soap and water. Afterwards ensure
the skin is dry
Most waxing/sugaring kits contain a jar of wax, fabric strips
and applicators.
Warm the jar of wax by placing in a bowl of hot water, although
there are also microwavable versions. Test to ensure it is
not too hot but warm enough to be easily spread. Apply a thin
layer of warmed wax in the direction of the hair growth by
using an applicator or palette/ butter knife. Quickly lay
a cotton or poly-cotton fabric strip onto the wax and quickly
rub a couple of times to ensure it has adhered to the wax.
Use one hand to pull the skin taut with the hair growth whilst
with the other pull the fabric strip back against the direction
of hair growth, parallel to the skin.
Apply
hand pressure or lightly pat the area to minimise discomfort.
Some
companies refer to sugaring as washable or soluble waxing.
Exceptions to the waxing notes are that when the fabric strip
is pulled back the level of pain isn't so intense, as sugaring
only sticks to the hair and not the skin. This method is becoming
more popular for both men and women.
It is best to avoid waxing or sugaring after a bath or shower
as the skin is more sensitive.
