Sugaring vs Waxing : What’s the difference?

Most people know all about waxing, but what is SUGARING? Sugaring in an ancient form of epilation that dates all the way back to Ancient Egypt. Its 100% natural and only made with 3 ingredients: Sugar, Lemon, and Water. That’s it! Because it’s all natural you don’t have to worry about any harmful chemicals or resins being on your skin or tossed into land fills by the strips left behind. Its a great alternative for people that have sensitive skin or struggle with ingrown hair. Since we were founded and created as a waxing business, we respect waxing as an effective form of hair removal and will always offer it as a service, but wanted to offer our beautiful ladies an alternative that was more gentle for the skin and a little kinder for our planet.
