Sugaring hair removal uses a sticky, gel-like paste to remove hair. The paste—which is made up of lemon, sugar, and water—is safe, natural, and uses no chemical additives. It’s applied to any area that has unwanted hair and is then removed in the direction of the hair growth.
The process of sugaring doesn’t stick to the top layer of the skin, therefore does not pull at live skin cells (unlike waxing, which breaks the hair at the surface). Instead, it removes the hair from the root (the bulb at the end of the hair that resembles an onion), making it especially effective for ingrown or curly hair.
When choosing to use sugaring as a method of hair removal you are not affecting the live skin cells on the body, therefore when it is removed, it only gently exfoliates dead skin cells, leaving behind silky smooth skin.

Sugaring unwanted facial and body hair requires an entirely different mind-set and approach from waxing. Waxing the legs or other areas on a client using hot wax runs the risk of burning sensitive 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, face, or back.
With sugaring you only remove the hair in the natural direction of the hair growth, plus the process of sugaring paste seeps into the hair follicle, which in turn helps lubricate the hair root regardless of whether it’s on the legs or anywhere else on the body.
