Hair should be around ¼ inch or about the length of a grain of rice.

The ideal length of time between appointments is 4-6 weeks to allow your hair growth cycle to sync.

Hair typically starts to grow back around three weeks. Hair growth rates are dependant on the person. If it is your first time being sugared or if you shave between appointments, you may find the hair grows back sooner.

Do not spray or self-tan before your appointment. Sugaring will remove the tanner. It is recommended to wait 3 days following your sugaring appointment before using tanner.

Sugaring is an all-natural and gentle form of hair removal. Sugar paste exfoliates skin and removes dead skin cells and hair from the root. Your skin may be sensitive or experience red spots where the hair was removed from the follicle. This is perfectly normal and should go away after a few hours to a couple days depending on the person. If your skin is feeling tender, you can apply a cold compress to the sugared areas. Your first time is the most sensitive but trust me, it gets easier over time.

Not to fear, sugaring is safe for all skin types.
