Sugaring
Your experience
Because the sugary paste adheres to only dead skin cells and hair, it doesn’t hurt as much as waxing. It also doesn’t require a resin like wax does, which can hurt when being pulled off the skin. Because the mixture is made with all-natural ingredients, it is water-soluble and easy to wash off after treatment. The choice to run the product over the skin in the opposite direction of hair growth also reduces the chances of ingrown hairs, which can be quite uncomfortable when they occur. But you still need an experienced sugarist to ensure this does not happen. Sugaring also gently exfoliates the skin, which is a bonus.
