Before Your Sugaring Appointment
Exfoliate the areas being sugared gently before your appointment.
Your skin should be clean and dry. Please avoid using any powders, sprays, or lotions prior to your bikini sugaring treatment.
Please do not wear any deodorant, oil, lotions, or any other skincare products on the areas you intend to have sugared.
We cannot wax or sugar hair from sunburned skin.
Please refrain from wearing tight clothing around the areas that have been waxed or sugared.
-
Generally speaking, four to five weeks of hair growth is perfect but about two weeks of growth would be acceptable.
-
The optimal amount of time between sugaring will be between two and four weeks, depending on the body part. The goal is to remove the hair from the root ball to discourage it from growing back.
-
It is completely up to you. Generally, skin is more sensitive during this time and you may opt to reschedule but if you are comfortable, it is fine to get sugared while on your period. If this is the case, we ask that you wear a tampon.
-
While we cannot guarantee this, in many cases, sugaring can lead to permanency.

Can I sugar while using Accutane, Retin-A?

Yes, gently.
After Your Sugaring Appointment
-
It varies from person to person and here's why:
There are three separate growth cycles for your hair. On your first sugaring visit, we get the first, second, and part of the third growth cycles of your hair. Once returning to get sugared two or three times, we start getting all three hair cycled out at the same time. As you continue to get sugared regularly, you will be able to go longer periods of time between your sugaring.
-
With sugaring, your hair will grow back thinner and many clients report a noticeable reduction of hair growth.
When choosing body sugaring as your hair removal choice, your first three appointments are the most important. It is important that your first three sugaring sessions are booked fairly close together. If you are planning to use sugaring to soften and reduce hair growth, regular sugaring treatments result in slower growth of hair and is thorough. Many find that sugaring is less painful and in most cases lead to permanency.
Using razors or depilatory cream between appointments will interfere with the goal of diminishing your hair growth. Please exfoliate and hydrate your skin regularly between sugaring visits. Proper aftercare is important for optimal results. You will receive the best results if your skin is happy and healthy.
-
Sugaring is longer-lasting, exfoliates while removing the first layer of dead skin cells, and is 100% pure and organic. It is more sanitary because there is no double dipping. Additionally, shorter hair can be extracted. Sugaring is water-soluble and easy to remove from clothing.
-
Your first appointment can take between 30 and 45 minutes depending on how long your hair is and if you have been waxing or shaving. Generally speaking, your maintenance appointment will last only 30 minutes or less.
-
Yes! Sugaring is all natural and generally consists of sugar, lemon juice, and water.
• Our sugar is warm and never hot so there’s no need to be concerned about being burned.
• Sugaring wraps itself around the hair shaft making it pliable and gently encourages the extraction of hair deep inside the follicles.
• Sugar is bacteria resistant.
• You will notice how clean and soft your skin feels after sugaring.

After Care Instructions
What should I do after my treatment?
Clean all makeup brushes and makeup supplies used on the face before re-applying any makeup.
To prevent ingrown hairs, we recommend exfoliating daily and moisturizing. It is very important to exfoliate and hydrate your skin. If you cannot exfoliate daily, we recommend you exfoliate your skin every two to three days to remove dead skin cells and to avoid ingrown hairs. Do not forget to moisturize your skin and hair follicles and keep them hydrated.
Please plan to avoid activities that may lead to excessive perspiration. We recommend avoiding those activities for at least eight hours. Remember, your follicles and pores are open, and for this reason, we want to prevent bacteria in the form of sweat.
It is recommended you not have sex for at least 24 hours.
Avoid hot tubs and swimming pools for two days following treatment. Your skin is still sensitive. There is an increased risk of developing a bacterial infection with open pores.
Should I do anything different before my sugaring treatment?
Please do not sunbathe or use a tanning bed for 48 hours prior to or after any sugaring or waxing treatment.
Please avoid putting moisturizers on the skin 24 hours before the treatment and 12 hours after the treatment.
Clients that are premenstrual experience more skin sensitivity. For sensitive skin, apply ice cold compresses 2 to 3 times for about 20 minutes at a time to take away the sting and reduce redness.
Take care not to use perfume soaps or products with chemical irritants within 24 hours of your treatment.
