What is Body Sugaring?
Centuries ago, Sugar Paste, or 'Halawa' as it is known to the Egyptians, was created as a means of hair removal and is a combination of Sugar, Water and Lemon Juice. Body Sugaring is a true art that takes much practice and is the most effective method of hair removal of its kind.
Unlike other methods, the Sugar Paste is warm, never hot and will only adhere to hair and dead skin. This means clients feel safe knowing they will never be burnt or experience irritation after treatment. The natural ingredients make Body Sugaring safe for Men and Women of all ages, skin types and hair textures. Our Body Sugar is so natural, you can eat it!

Sugar vs Wax
Over the years, an entire industry with many related businesses has grown out of our desire to be smooth-skinned. Sugaring is often compared to waxing as both are spread onto the skin and then pulled off - but that is where the comparison ends. The following chart shows the many significant differences between the two methods. Please note: Any Hair Removal Method can be performed safely by a Trained Professional!! If you are unsure whether your Practitioner/Esthetician is Trained.... ASK!

| Sugaring pulls hair out in the natural direction of hair growth, taking the hair out by the root. The result is less pain, less rashes and less ingrown hairs. | Waxing pulls hair out against natural hair growth resulting in breakage, pain, rashes and ingrown hairs. |
| Sugar is 100% natural with no chemical additives, no wax resins and no unnecessary essential oils. It is safe to use on all skin and hair types. | All wax products contain resins and may not be suitable for all skin types. Sugar Wax or Honey Wax is not to be confused with Sugar Paste and may contain resins. |
| Sugar is hygienic and applied to the body with a gloved hand. No spatula or cotton strips are required - NO DOUBLE DIPPING! | Wax is applied with a spatula and removed with cotton strips. Double Dipping is common. |
| Sugaring is Hypoallergenic and a natural healer of the skin. | Waxing damages fine tissue cells. |
| Sugar is water-soluble, clean up is easy. | Wax requires solvents and oils to clean up, even on your skin. |
| Sugar is lukewarm and will never stick to live skin cells. | Wax can easily burn skin causing bleeding and scarring. |
