Sugaring is an ancient form of hair removal made up of Sugar, Lemon, and Water with a soft warm “honey-like” texture. The paste is placed on your skin (against the direction of hair growth) and then “flicked” off leaving the skin smooth (and hairless).
What should I do to prepare for my appointment?
Your hair should be at least 1/8th of an inch long for best results. Anything shorter than that and we will attempt to extract it, but a followup appointment might be needed. Clean, dry skin is needed to apply our sugar. So please try not to apply any lotions, oils, deodorant, fragrances, etc. to the skin on the areas to be sugared prior to your service. Make sure to exfoliate your skin, but not 24 hours before your service.
*Please inform us of any allergies, sensitivities, conditions, or medications prior to your service.
I’m on my period, can I still get sugared?
Yes. You may be more sensitive in the few days leading up to your period and the first few days of your period. Some clients take an Ibuprofen 30 minutes prior to their appointment.
I’ve never been sugared before, what should I expect?
Sugaring, while in technique differs quite a bit from waxing, is essentially a less abrasive, more natural, and gentler method of hair removal. When you arrive, we’ll check you in and get you set up with some paperwork (if needed). Then, when they’re ready, your esthetician will come up and get you, show you to the room, and chat briefly about your service. We leave a towel and some wipes on the treatment bed for your privacy and convenience. Then, your esthetician will close the door to give you a minute to change and situate. Once they’re ready, they’ll knock to make sure you’re ready, and then it’s go time!

POST SUGAR INSTRUCTIONS:
24 hours after your service stay clean, cool and free from friction.
24 hours after your service refrain from strenuous activity that might get sweat/bacteria on the freshly sugared area. This includes working out and or sexual activity. Doing these things will increase the likelihood of ingrown hairs (and those suck!)
Please don’t suntan for about 48 hours after you’ve been sugared. You are freshly exfoliated and we want to avoid sun damage and burning.
48 hours after being sugared begin daily exfoliation on the sugared area.
