Frequently asked questions

 

Does it hurt?!

YES!!

However, unlike wax, sugar only sticks to the hair and dead skin cells. It does not stick to live skin and sugar removes hair in the direction of hair growth. This is opposite of wax. Most clients will say that sugaring hurts less due to the healing process being minimal compared to wax. Removing hair never feels great but the results are going to be amazing! We will show you sugar, go over positions, and discuss our process at the time of your first booked appointment.
 

help!! i started my cycle…

Ladies, this is no worry to us! We understand that not everyone is comfortable with this idea, but as professionals it is OKAY! We just ask that you wear a tampon and tuck your string. Most of the time the string may come loose and that is OKAY too. Take some ibuprofen beforehand because we are typically far more sensitive while our cycles are here. Don’t stress we will always take care of you & help you feel comfortable!

Sugaring 101

NATURAL & ORGANIC INGREDIENTS DELIVERING EXCEPTIONAL HAIR REMOVAL RESULTS

Sugaring unwanted facial and body hair requires an entirely different mind-set and approach from waxing. For instance, did you know…

Studio Sugar’s sugaring products do not adhere to live skin cells

This is one of the major differences between sugaring and waxing. Wax products are made of resins which adhere to skin cells. Because wax sticks to any surface it is applied to, pulling it away causes unwarranted pain. Our sugaring products never adhere to live skin cells on bodies and faces. Therefore, when it is removed, it only gently exfoliates away dead skin cells, leaving behind silky smooth skin.

Additionally, because our sugaring paste is all natural and WATER SOLUBLE, it can be easily rinsed away.  At the end of your session, a warm washcloth rinses away all stickiness leaving you with beautifully smooth skin.

OUR SUGARING TECHNIQUE EXTRACTS HAIR IN ITS NATURAL DIRECTION OF GROWTH…

When waxing legs and bodies, you remove the hair against the natural direction of growth causing undue levels of pain. With our sugaring method, you only remove the hair in the natural direction of the hair growth. Plus, through our sugaring application technique, the sugar paste seeps into the hair follicle. This helps lubricate the hair root regardless of whether it’s on the legs or anywhere else on your client.

These two facts alone make a world of difference in comfort for the client. This is especially important for clients who have suffered in the past with waxing in sensitive areas.

THE HEALTHY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NATURAL SUGAR PASTES VERSUS CHEMICALS FOR WAXING LEGS AND BODIES…

Our Sugaring Paste is all natural and ORGANIC. It’s even edible and delicious. Our sugar pastes are very safe and skin friendly.

Most products used for waxing legs and full bodies are made from petroleum based resins and chemicals making them prone to contamination or cross contamination.

NO RISK OF BURNING SENSITIVE SKIN AREAS WITH SUGARING…

Waxing the legs or other areas on a client using hot wax runs the risk of burning skin. There’s just no way around that. While women are used to this risk, men are often intimidated by the idea of hot wax on their chest, legs, or back.

Our sugaring is performed at body temperature. Studio Sugar’s organic sugar pastes adhere to the hair, not the skin, and lubricate the root for easier extraction from the follicle. Combined with the hair removal in the natural direction of growth, our sugaring means a much more comfortable experience for everyone.
