A. Sugaring is an ancient art of hair removal using a sugar paste
made from lemon, sugar and water. The paste is applied with a
molding technique onto your skin against the direction of the hair
growth and flicked off in the direction of the hair growth, extracting unwanted hair. This method leads to less breakage, ingrown hairs, discomfort and irritation. You are left with gently exfoliated soft and silky skin.

A. Sugaring can be performed on all skin tones and skin types.
Body Builders, Athletes, females and males.
Anyone sensitive to waxing, razor burns or razor bumps, ingrown
hairs, thinning skin from aging or skin care product use.
Feminine facial hair due to hormonal imbalances, PCOS or ethnic
hair growth, pre and post tattooing and body art.

A. First, breathe and relax, sugaring is one of the most gentlest
forms of hair removal. There is a level of discomfort because the
hair is being extracted from the root. I use several different
techniques to reduce the discomfort level as much as possible.

Stop shaving for at least a week to ten days so there is enough
hair growth for extraction.

Please do not exfoliate the day of or the day before your sugar
service.

No tanning (sun or bed) 24 hours prior to service if you are
sunburned the service can not be preformed.

A. Hair grows in 3 growth cycles so for the first 6 months it is
recommended to book your follow up appointments every 2-3 weeks with the approximate hair length of 1/4 of an inch. This allows the hair to be on the same growth cycle and leads to hair growth reduction.

A. It is a personal preference, the skin may be more sensitive but if
you are comfortable the service can be preformed but a tampon
is recommended.

A. Absolutely not, these products causes dryness and thinning of the
skin and there is a risk of skin damage, it is recommended to be
completely off these products for at least six months to a year.

A. Stop any exfoliation 24 hours before your service, this includes
any skin care products with retinols, cleansing brushes like
Clarisonic, scrubs, or exfoliating masks. I recommend 48 hours
prior to your appointment to use a gentle exfoliating mitt or dry
brush to lift any hairs that may be growing flat to the surface of
the skin.

A. Exfoliation and hydration will be your best friends, 48 hours after
your sugar service use an exfoliating mitt with your gentle
cleanser and hydrate with fragrance and dye free moisturizing
lotion. Sugar Me Suite carries a full line of natural aftercare products, bamboo body polish, moisturizing lotion and ingrown hair
treatments for home care purchases.
