Sugaring Hair Removal - An Easy Economical Way To Get Rid of Body Hair
|
By:
Mike Jones
Sugaring hair removal is very kind to the skin! That's because sugaring pastes are made of natural ingredients. No wonder then that many find this method of getting rid of unwanted body hair a very easy, convenient, economical and safe method.
Before you can tell if sugaring hair removal is good for you experiment with it. Each person has a different hair texture, rate of hair growth and so on so you won't know until you try it.
Browse this frequently asked questions list to make an informed decision:
What is sugaring hair removal?
Originating in ancient Egypt, this method uses a paste made mainly from sugar which is then spread over the skin. When the paste hardens and is pulled off sharply, unwanted hair is trapped in the paste and taken out by the root.
How does sugaring work?
The sugaring paste should be warmed to just below body temperature and then spread evenly over the skin in the direction the hair is growing. Cotton strips (these can be reused) are pressed firmly into the paste. Then with a sharp pull back action the strip takes out the unwanted hair from the root.
On what areas of the body can sugaring be used?
Practically all areas including:
eyebrows
upper lip
underarms
legs
arms
stomach
bikini line
One caution: this method is not for a man's facial hair. Due to the different hair root system on a man's face sugaring hair removal is unsuitable.
How long before hair regrows after sugaring hair removal?
Probably somewhere between four and six weeks, depending of course on the person's rate of hair growth. As the hair is removed from the root each time, some find the hair gets weaker and finer over time which can make it easier if you persist with this method.
Is sugaring painful?
It depends on a person's pain toleration level but generally it is no more than a slight sting. Any red skin reaction that occurs afterwards usually disappears within a day.
Is sugaring hair removal safe?
Yes, the ingredients are all natural. Sugaring even has healing properties. Paste solutions which are purchased can also contain other ingredients such as citric acid and gum Arabic.
Specifically, the citric acid tightens the skin as it is an astringent and gum Arabic gives a good consistency to the paste so it is easier to take off.
What are the differences between sugaring and waxing?
1. Wax adheres to the hair and the skin whereas sugaring paste adheres only to the hair. Some say there is less discomfort because of this.
2. Sugaring paste is slightly warmed to room temperature whereas wax is applied either hot or cold. The cold waxes come in precoated strips.
3. Waxing supplies can contain chemicals which may have an adverse effect on the skin if used repeatedly. Sugaring paste preparations however are made of natural ingredients and tend to be gentle on the skin.
4. As wax preparations are petroleum based they can be a little oily and messy to clean up whereas sugaring pastes can be cleaned away with water.
From the foregoing you can see that sugaring hair removal has many features in its favor. No wonder it is so popular, especially for anyone concerned about the condition of their skin. Why not try it one time and see if it works for you. |
