Difference between
SUGARING & WAXING
SUGARING VS WAXING
SUGARING
Ingredients
Sugaring uses only natural ingredients. The preparation is 100% natural. Contains sugar, honey, lemon and water.
Effects
Sugaring paste is applied at body temperature & will not burn your skin. It will smooth your skin.
After Sugaring
Sugar paste can be cleaned up easily with water. You will never leave a Sugaring Treatment feeling sticky.
Bacteria Free
Sugaring Paste is hypoallergenic & non-comedogenic. Bacteria cannot breed in the tub of sugar.
Flexible
Using the Advanced Sugaring Technique, the paste wraps around the hair making it pliable. The hair is removed out of the follicle only in the natural direction of growth, which helps to extract the hair intact.
Skin Effect
Sugar cannot adhere to live skin cells. This means less discomfort for you & less trauma to your skin. Sugaring does remove dead skin cells – so as the hair is removed your skin is also getting exfoliated!
WAXING
Ingredients
Waxing is made of resins and often toxic chemicals as well. These ingredients are often irritating, if not toxic to the skin.
Effects
Hot wax must be heated to a high degree in order to become liquified which can cause burning & scarring.
After Waxing
Wax contains resins, chemical solvents are required to remove it’s residues.
Not Bacteria Free
Cross contamination in a waxing room is always a danger, especially since bacteria will breed inside a tub of wax.
Flexible
One of the most common problems waxers face is early regrowth due to broken hairs. Since wax hardens on the hair, it has the tendency to break it off at the surface, rather than pull it out.
Skin Effect
Wax has been known to remove more than just the hair, since it can adhere directly to live skin cells, which makes waxing more painful & irritating. Wax cannot be applied to an area more than twice at the most.
