FAQ
Body sugaring is an ancient method of hair removal that dates back thousands of years and has been used globally to keep our bodies smooth and hair free. Various African Countries, The Middle East, and Papua New Guinea are a few places where sugaring is widely used and continues to grow as a premium niche hair removal service across the U.S.
Traditional Body Sugaring uses “the handheld method” in which a ball of paste made of sugar, water and lemon is molded onto the skin and into the follicle with a gloved hand. The paste is then quickly removed in the direction of growth disconnecting the hair shaft from the papilla as it slides out the “mouth” of the follicle thereby reducing irritation and breakage.
