Sugaring

SUGAR WAX

Sugaring is the process of removing unwanted hair from any part of your body. When you want to try other forms of hair removal, turn to the trained staff at Nue Beauty San Francisco. Whether you are looking for naturally shaped brows or want to tend to your bikini line before a trip to the beach, our sugaring techniques will have you looking your best without the common side effects individuals experience following other forms of hair removal. 

 

What is Sugaring?

Hair removal with sugaring is an all-natural alternative to waxing and other traditional treatments used in the past. Its all-natural approach offers more benefits while causing minimal irritation or side effects. Sugaring is a gentle method of hair removal that has been practiced for centuries. The process uses a paste made from sugar, water, and lemon juice to remove the unwanted hairs from your skin. 

 

These all-natural ingredients allow the sugaring process to be significantly less abrasive than wax, only exfoliating off dead skin. The temperature of the sugar never gets warmer than room temperature. NO MORE GETTING BURNED! 

 

Sugaring is very effective and efficient at removing hair. The process also gets hairs at a shorter length than wax can. That is because the molecule in the sugar is small enough to penetrate the hair follicle sticking to the hair closer to the root, at a deeper level in the skin. Sugaring allows for more secure removal of the hair without breaking. 

 

The sugaring technique makes Nue Beauty's hair removal processes unique. The application of the sugar goes opposite the direction of the hair growth and is removed in that direction. That eliminates hair breakage and ingrown hairs, which means your service will last longer and lead to permanency sooner than wax can. 

 

How Does Sugaring Differ From Traditional Treatments?

Sugaring differs from traditional waxing or sugaring forms because it does not adhere to live skin cells. The gentle sugaring paste is never hot and only adheres to the hairs, which helps with the removal process. Sugaring also exfoliates your skin, as it removes dead skin cells along with the hair. This can help reduce the appearance of ingrown hairs and leaves you with smoother, softer skin.

 

​On the other hand, waxing removes hair from the root and is a source of discomfort for many clients. Not only is the hair ripped from the body, but so are the skin cells. This ripping process is more likely to experience after-effects of ingrown hairs, redness, and irritation. Also, if you have coarse hair, waxing can pull too hard and cause breakage.

 

Is Sugaring Safe?

Yes! Sugaring is a safe and natural way to remove unwanted hair. The all-natural ingredients used in the sugaring process make it safer than traditional hair removal methods. It is also gentle enough for sensitive skin and can be used on any area of your body.

 

Sugaring is known to cause minimal irritation and side effects compared to traditional hair removal methods. If you have sensitive skin or are prone to irritation from waxing, sugaring may be a better choice for you.

 

What Are The Benefits Of Sugaring?

Sugaring has numerous benefits over traditional forms of hair removal. It is all-natural and gentle on your skin, making it suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. It is also an effective and efficient way to remove unwanted hair, as it can remove hairs that are shorter than those that waxing can. Additionally, sugaring has exfoliating benefits and helps your skin feel softer and smoother after each session.

 

Before you book your next waxing appointment, remember:

  • Sugaring is a much gentler option for sensitive skin.

  • Clients experience a lower risk of irritation.

  • Ingrown hairs, folliculitis, damaged skin, discoloration, and more will decrease with the increased use of sugaring.

  • Sugar paste can be reapplied to the same area multiple times before it needs to be replaced, making sugaring a more efficient process.

 

Get the Lowdown on Your Body and Skin Type

Did you know that you can customize the sugaring paste to your skin type when you choose to sugar over waxing? This is because sugaring pastes are made with all-natural ingredients, unlike wax, which often contains synthetic materials and chemicals. If you have sensitive skin, rosacea, or eczema, sugaring may be better! Book your first appointment with Nue Beauty!
