What is sugaring?
Sugaring is an ancient art of hair removal that was popular thousands of years ago in Egypt, Greece and Mesopotamia. The technique is described in Egyptian hieroglyphics and in writings from the Turkish Empire.
Rediscovered ancient arts often are found to be the most effective methods, and this is clearly the case with sugaring. The technique is not more commonly available because it is a true art that takes much practice to perfect – watching the finger dexterity and curvaceous hand motions is fascinating! And your licensed esthetician is a highly trained sugarist!
The pure, 100 percent natural sugar “paste” – consisting of sugar, lemon juice, and water blended into a substance that looks and feels like honey – is more effective, more sanitary and less painful than any other hair removal process.

Benefits of Sugaring
Sweet And True is natural and organic:
Sugaring paste is made of natural ingredients with no harmful side effects caused by allergic reactions. It is so natural you can eat it!
Body Sugaring is sanitary:
Sugaring paste is hypoallergenic and does not clog pores. Due to the high concentration of sugar, bacteria cannot breed in the sugar paste.
Body Sugaring can extract short hairs:
Sugar has the capabilities of extracting less than 1/16th inches or four to seven days after shaving. Although this is not a guarantee. We like to aim for closer to 1/8th of an inch.
Body Sugaring will not break hairs:
Sugar paste wraps around the hair shaft making it pliable, while seeping below the mouth of the follicle and lubricating the hair to make the extraction more complete and gentle. The hair is removed within the direction of hair growth to help eliminate hair breakage.
Sugar paste is cooler than wax:
Sweet And True paste is applied at room temperature making it safe for all areas. It does not increase blood supply around varicose veins, which makes it a safer alternative. Also, will not cause burns on the skin.
Sugar is easier to clean up:
Sugar is water soluble and easily cleaned off the skin and clothes with warm water.
Sugar will not stick to the skin:
Because live skin cells are moist, and sugar paste is water soluble, the sugar will not adhere to live skin cells lessening the risk of skin lifting/tearing. Which makes it a safer alternative for clients with psoriasis or eczema.
Body Sugaring promotes healthy skin:
Sugaring exfoliates dead skin cells and leaves your skin smooth and silky.
Sugar never dries out.

-Wear comfortable clothing.
-Stay hydrated
-Do not workout or drink any caffeine prior to service as it may make sensitivity more intense during your session.
-Trim down if it's longer than a grain of rice (clippers with a 1/4" guard)- this will make your session go smoother.
-Come free of oils, lotions, makeup and deodorant on your skin.
-Exfoliate and moisturize up until the day before to lift of dead skin cells

-For the first 24-48 hours after your service. It is recommended that you avoid tight clothing, hot baths/tubs, public pools, sauna/steam rooms, sun exposure/tanning beds, perfumes/scented moisturizers, sexual activity (including oral sex) & exercise that would involve excessive sweating. If you must exercise be sure to shower immediately after with antibacterial soap.
