Sugaring is a game-changer compared to waxing! Here's why: - **All-Natural:** No harsh chemicals, just pure, skin-friendly ingredients. - **Gentle on Skin:** Doesn't burn or stick to live skin, making it less painful and irritating. - **Hygienic:** Naturally bacteria-resistant and water-soluble. - **Effective:** Reduces breakage, eliminates ingrown hairs, and is safe for sensitive skin. - **Long-Term Benefits:** Regular sugaring can lead to permanent hair reduction over time.

To make the most of your Sugaring session, here’s how to prep: - **Hair Length:** Let your hair grow to about a grain of rice (2–3 weeks). - **Clean Skin:** Avoid lotions, oils, or deodorants on the day of your appointment. - **Exfoliate:** Gently exfoliate the day before to lift trapped hairs and prevent ingrowns. - **Comfy Clothes:** Wear loose, breathable clothing to keep your skin happy post-sugaring. - **No Shaving:** Wait for the right hair length if you’ve recently shaved. With these simple steps, you’re all set for smooth, glowing skin!

A Vajacial is a soothing post-hair removal treatment designed to pamper and refresh your skin. Here’s what it includes: - **Steps:** Cleansing, light exfoliation, calming masks, and nourishing products. - **Benefits:** Helps with ingrown hairs, bumps, irritation, dark spots, and dry skin. It’s typically done after a Brazilian sugaring session to focus on skin care once the hair is removed. Think of it as a facial for your bikini area—leaving your skin soft, clear, and glowing. **Pro Tip:** Pair your Vajacial with a sugaring appointment for the ultimate skin treat. Your bikini line will thank you!

Unlike waxing... Sugaring only requires the hair to be 1/8" (7-10 Days of Hair Growth) which allows the hair to be removed in the first stage of hair growth... at this stage the hair follicle wall is pulled out each time causing it to close.

Yes....Please note that the senses are heightened during and around your cycle, you would also have to wear a tampon during the service.

The frequency of your Sugaring appointments depends on your hair growth cycle, how long you’ve been sugaring, and the area of your body. - **Brazilian Sugaring:** Most clients schedule every 4 weeks. Over time, you may extend to every 5–6 weeks as hair growth slows. - **Facial Sugaring:** Can be done more often, with some clients coming every 2 weeks. Regular Sugaring leads to finer, sparser hair over time, so you may find you need appointments less frequently as you continue!

A histamine reaction after Sugaring is totally normal—and actually a sign your skin is responding just as it should! ✨ **What it looks like:** - Small red bumps - Slight swelling - A warm, flushed look **Why it happens:** When hair is removed from the root, your body releases histamines as part of its natural response. This reaction is more common if it’s your first time or if your skin is extra sensitive. It usually appears immediately or within a few hours and typically calms down within 24–48 hours. **How to soothe it:** - Apply a cool compress ❄️ - Avoid heat (hot showers, saunas, workouts) for 24 hours - Keep the area clean and skip heavy products - Wear loose, breathable clothing If you’re a regular sugaring babe, you’ll likely notice this reaction becomes way less noticeable over time. And don’t worry—we use gentle, natural sugaring paste that’s designed to be kind to your skin while keeping you smooth, glowing, and bump-free! ✨

While rare, a bacterial reaction can happen if aftercare isn’t followed. Here’s what you need to know: **What it Looks Like:** - Small whiteheads or bumps - Redness or irritation a day or two after - Tender or inflamed skin **Why it Happens:** - Touching the area with unclean hands - Tight clothes causing friction - Sweating or working out too soon - Skipping aftercare steps **How to Prevent It:** - Keep the area clean and hands off - Avoid sweating, workouts, and heat for 24 hours - Wear loose, breathable clothes - Follow your esthetician’s advice **If It Happens:** - Gently cleanse the area - Don’t pick or pop bumps - Use a gentle antibacterial product if needed With proper care, your skin will stay smooth, clear, and glowing!
