Sugaring Hair Removal Has Come To Englewood!
Simply put, sugaring is a method for removing unwanted body hair using a rather thick gel, typically made from sugar, lemon and hot water. The body surface is prepped and dried, generally with power, at which point the gel is gently applied to the skin’s surface where it remains for a few minutes. It is then gently pulled from the skin removing the hair from the roots.
This method of removing hair has been practiced for centuries throughout Greece, the Middle East and Northern Africa. It offers the benefit of being significantly less irritating and longer lasting than conventional waxing. This is so because, unlike wax, the gel does not adhere to the skin—only to the hair. Thus, when the gel is removed from the skin’s surface it pulls only the hair and not the skin, resulting in less skin irritation and a more complete hair removal. Sugaring offers the additional benefit of being less messy than conventional waxing.
Sugaring is an excellent option for anyone seeking hair removal, but is especially the case for those with sensitive skin.
Hair must be at least ¼ of an inch in length so that the gel can bond to the hair properly. Immediately after sugaring your esthetician will apply a skin soothing balm or cream which will leave your skin feeling soft, clean and comfortable.
As with all skin services, be certain that you are having the service performed by an experience and qualified professional esthetician.
