My name is Nettie and I'm the owner of Sugar and Lemon, at your service!
I am a Sugarista, an Esthetician and non-practicing Spanish Teacher; I promise to speak to you in Spanish if you want to practice! :)
Using an organic, biodegradable, even edible paste to gently (compared with waxing and treading) remove facial and all body hair.
What is Sugaring?
It is an ancient method of hair removal that uses a water soluble paste made of sugar, lemon and water to remove unwanted hair from the face and body. It's a great alternative for clients with sensitive skin and those who are looking gentler, longer lasting and eco- friendly hair removal treatments.
Sugaring has been in use since 1900 BC! The original basic recipe of sugar, lemon juice and water is heated at a very low temperature to form a rich syrup, which is then molded by hand into a ball that spreads easily onto the skin and then removed with a flick of the hand by an experienced Sugarist.
Besides being organic and quite possible the most ancient and natural hair removing method, the benefits of sugaring extend beyond its pure formula. During application, the sugar paste seeps into the the hair follicle, lubrication the hair root for easier removal. Pulling hair out in the same direction of growth, unlike waxing, lessens strain on the skin and prevents hair breakage above or below the surface. As a result, the client enjoys hairless skin for 3 to 5 weeds, the hair becomes finer and softer with every treatment, and the skin get the added bonus of a smoothing and rejuvenating treatment.
