WHAT IS SUGARING?
Sugaring is a gentler, safer method of hair removal for all parts of the body. It is effective on all
skin types & hair textures for both men & women.
WHY IS SUGARING MORE EXPENSIVE THAN WAX?
* It's more labor intensive than waxing. Waxing is, slap it on, rip
it off! With sugar, you work it into the skin, then flick it off.
* It can take more time to perfom a service
* The cost of sugar to the esthetician
is 4 to 5 times the amount vs. a can of wax!
UNIQUE SUGAR PRODUCT
The sugaring paste used is a blend of natural ingredients, sugar, water and lemon-juice.
There are no chemical additives so there is no fear of any harmful side effects. The application of the sugar will remove
dead skin cells leaving the skin soft, silky & healthy.
ALEXANDRIA PRACTITIONERS
Certified Alexandria Practitioners are professionally trained & educated. We are committed to a high standard
of service, helping you to make Sugaring a part of your regular beauty routine.
YOUR APPOINTMENT
Hair growth need not exceed 1/8” to be removed. (If
you shave, between 9 & 10 days is sufficient.)
PREPARING YOUR SKIN FOR YOUR TREATMENT
Please do not use a razor or depilatory creams between appointments, this
will interfere with your goal to refine & diminish your hair growth. Also, ingrown hairs can become a problem when
one shaves on a regular basis. (If ingrown hairs are a problem,
please let me know immediately, I can make this problem be a thing of the past!) Regularly hydrating &
exfoliating your skin between sugaring treatments is just as important as receiving treatment. You will receive the
best results if your skin is healthy.
FACES
If
required, to quickly reduce redness in this area, either have me apply a Hungarian Wellness Mud mask immediately following
treatment or apply it at your home with "Mud Puddle Hungarian Wellness Mud". You may develop a few
white pustules in this area following your 1st & 2nd treatments. This can be treated & even prevented
by soaking a cotton pad in a mixture of "Saltspring" to half cup of cool/lukewarm water.
SALTSPRING
Dead Sea Salts exfoliates & smoothes
the skin & is traditionally calming, detoxifying & very soothing. When combined with sweet almond oil, it makes
an excellent dead skin exfoliant.
MUD PUDDLE
Hungarian Wellness Mud detoxifies & revitalizes the skin & is excellent for all skin types & conditions
ranging from acne treatment to cellulite. This high quality, versatile mud comes in a dry form & blends easily to
a rich, smooth creamy paste by adding water.
MAXIMIZE RESULTS
You'll want to establish a routine so that each treatment works more effectively towards the diminishment of
your hair. Since the best age to start is at puberty, we encourage you to influence your daughters to start Sugaring
instead of shaving.
SUN TANNING
Regular sugaring treatments will actually enhance and brighten your tan. Your
skin may sunburn more easily immediately following a sugaring treatment due to dead skin cell exfoliation. Wait
24 hours before exposing your skin to the sun, infra red lamps or solarium. You should not receive a sugaring treatment
on an area where your skin is sun burned.
IRRITANTS
Do
not use perfumed soap or products with chemical irritants on sugared areas within 24 hours of your treatment. Do not
apply deodorant to underarms for 12 hours after a sugaring treatment. We recommend that you avoid make-up for 12 hours
following a facial sugaring treatment. Mineral make-up is an exception.
MENSTRUATION
I suggest that you do not schedule your appointments 1 week prior to your menstrual
cycle, as you may be more sensitive. However, many of my clients do, if sensitivity is not an issue. If
you are menstruating, don't let that stop you from making an appointment. (Would you cancel a trip because Mother
Nature called? Nope, your travel bag would include a box of tampons!) C'est La Vie!
SKIN SPOTTING
Tiny red spots may appear on the skin for a few hours maybe longer, everyone is different.
If this should happen, do not be alarmed. This is a natural reaction caused when a hair is removed by the root.
It will disappear quickly. The bigger the root, the bigger the spot. As your hair becomes refined, the spots will
become smaller.
FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
If you experience
any discomfort or redness, you can also instantly calm you skin with our excellent Mud Puddle Hungarian Wellness Mud.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT
TYPES OF HAIR REMOVAL?
Below is a description of the most popular types of hair removal.
* Classic Bikini - Removes all hair outside
of the panty line.
* A little more off...bikini - Leaves a vertical or triangular shape on
the vaginal area. Hair is not removed from the labia or behind the tush.
* Playboy
Bikini - A very narrow strip is left in the vaginal area. All hair is removed from the labia and the tush. Named
after the models appearing in "Playboy" magazine.
* Brazilian or Full Monty Bikini
- All hair is removed from front to back. Everything is bald.
(Please note, if you prefer another style, just ask.)
WILL THIS SERVICE
HURT?
The first time sugaring, especially
the bikini area, will be uncomfortable. However, if you keep up with your appointments (every 4 to 5 weeks), your
hair will grow thinner in time and it won't be as painful as the the first time. Please note, any form of hair removal will be painful, including laser!
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET SUGARED?
Every 4 weeks is recommended.
