Introduction to sugar paste hair removal
Definition and Origin
Sugaring, also known as sugaring, is a natural hair removal method that has its roots in ancient skin care traditions. It is a gentle and effective alternative to other hair removal methods.
Skin preparation
Before you start sugar paste hair removal, make sure the skin is clean and dry. You can disinfect it with a pre-depilatory lotion. Avoid applying creams or oils 12 hours before hair removal, as they can make the paste less effective.
Using the Right Temperature
Heat the sugar paste to the correct temperature for the best results. It should be warm but not too hot to avoid burns.
Application in the opposite direction of hair growth
Application should be carried out in three passes with a thick layer of sugar and removed in the direction of hair growth for optimal results.
Pain management
Sugaring paste is known to be less painful than other hair removal methods, but if you experience discomfort, you can apply light pressure to the skin after removing the paste to ease the pain.
Hydration after hair removal
After hair removal, moisturize your skin with a soothing gel to help calm any irritation and redness.
Hair removal frequency
It is important to wax your clients during the anagen phase of hair regrowth to optimize your hair removal.
Maintenance of sugar paste
Store your sugar paste in a cool, dry place to extend its life. It is essential to clean the edge of your pot so that it closes correctly and to prevent the texture from changing. You can also reheat the dough slightly before each use to make it more pliable.
Tips for Successful Hair Removal
Avoid using powder during sugar paste hair removal. In fact, adding powder will reduce the adhesion of the sugar paste to the skin, which will require changing the paste more frequently. Not only can this compromise the effectiveness of hair removal, but it can also lead to additional costs. By opting for an application of sugar paste directly to clean, dry skin, you maximize the effectiveness of the method while preserving its economy.
