Plucking VS Waxing VS Threading
Summers in Houston force many of us to adopt a less-is-best approach to everything. With the exception of air conditioning, that is.
The approach works not only for fashion, but also for beauty as well. Most women put away their heavy foundations and dark colors, opting for a lighter, more natural look.
What is Body Sugaring?
Based on a technique developed thousands of years ago in the middle east, Body Sugaring is a gentle and effective form of hair removal, using a natural ingredient - sugar. Sugar has an antiseptic function preventing bacteria from thriving. That is one reason why sugar dressings have been used to treat patients with wounds such as severe burns that are susceptible to infections. The results - reduced healing time and dramatically diminished scarring. The healing properties of sugar continue to benefit the skin in the Body Sugaring unique hair removal process.
You'll witness the difference after your first treatment by its gentle action on your skin. Most people find that sugaring does not hurt. However, the first time you sugar it may feel as though you are pulling off a Band-Aid (particularly if you have always shaved). Don’t give up. Sugaring weakens the hair root making it easier to remove the hair with each treatment. By your third sugaring treatment, you too will find it virtually pain free! Sugaring Hair Removal Paste is gentle enough to repeat on same area if a few strands of hair remain. Skin may be slightly pink after removing the hair but should return to normal within 24 hours.
Skin must be clean of all creams and/or oils before beginning your hair removal treatment. The time between treatments will be anywhere from three to five weeks, if you are new to Body Sugaring. That period will increase, even after a few months of sugaring. To ensure successful sugaring, hair growth must be at least a 1/4" or 6 mm to effectively remove hair by the root.
Sugaring ingredients include: sugar, fresh lemon juice and water. Sugar has proven healing qualities and bacteria can not grow in large amounts of it. Citric acid (from lemon juice) is a mild astringent used to tighten and firm the skin; when the skin is firm the hair is removed more easily and gently. Sugaring is easily cleaned because it's water soluble. Sugaring not only removes the unwanted hair, it also removes dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth and silky, which makes moisturizing more effective. If this layer of flaking or dead skin is not removed, applying moisturizers brings little or no benefit to the good layers underneath.
What is Brazilian Bikini Waxing?
The terms 'Brazilian Waxing' and 'Hollywood Waxing' are often used interchangeably to refer to hair removal in the bikini area. Specifically the term 'Brazilian Waxing' refers to partial bikini hair removal, often leaving a strip of hair, whereas 'Hollywood Waxing' refers to total bikini hair removal.
What is Brazilian Bikini Waxing So Popular?
Many just enjoy the clean feeling that comes with being hairless. Some who did it just to wear a bikini before, now keep it up because "it just feels great"!
What is Threading Hair Removal?
Threading hair removal is an ancient method originating in Persia, but is still used in many countries in the Middle East as well as India and Pakistan. It is used to give clean lines and good shape to the eyebrows and also remove hair from the upper lip and other facial areas.
How Does Threading Hair Removal Effect The Skin?
The effects are less than with other hair removal methods such as tweezing, waxing or sugaring. The skin may get a little red and sore but only a slight pinch is felt as a relatively large area is covered each time.
