How sugaring is done
Sugaring is a “pull” method of hair removal . The components of the sugar paste are melted with the heat of a small stove.

The gestures of applying and removing the sugar paste adhering to the skin resemble a kind of massage . Traction must be exerted, in fact, in the direction of hair growth to minimize the breakage of the shaft, which we remember is the cause of ingrown hairs.
After epilation, the skin is washed with a neutral liquid detergent (no soap !) And the application of a soothing gel or a vegetable oil -based emulsion completes the treatment (e.g. sweet almond oil , aloe, calendula , chamomile etc.) to speed up the skin repair process.
Results and duration of Sugaring
