Sugaring FAQs

What is sugaring?

Sugaring is a natural method of hair removal that originated in the Middle East. It uses a paste made from sugar, water, and lemon juice to remove hair from the root, leaving your skin silky smooth.

How does sugaring hair removal work?

Similarly to waxing, the sugaring paste is applied to your skin and sticks to the hair. When the paste is removed, it pulls the hair out from the root, leaving a smooth finish that lasts longer than shaving.

Is sugaring better than waxing?

While both are effective methods of hair removal, many people find sugaring gentler on their skin than waxing. Hair is removed in the direction of its growth, which reduces the risk of ingrown hairs. Plus it uses all-natural ingredients, which can be better for your skin.

How long does hair need to be for sugaring?

For the best results, your hair should be at least a quarter of an inch long – about the length of a grain of rice.

Does sugaring hurt?

Sugaring may cause a little discomfort, especially if it's your first time. But most people find it to be less painful than waxing.

Can you do sugaring at home?

With the right ingredients and steps, you can do your own sugaring at home. However, for a smoother and safer experience, we recommended getting it done by a professional therapist.

Sugaring is less painful than waxing and doesn't involve any chemicals. It's a super quick process, but regrowth should take up to 6 weeks. Plus, your hair should grow back weaker every time. Search the Fresha mobile app for sweet deals on a sugar wax in Earl's Court.
