Prepping For Your Appointment
- Exfoliation is extremely important, BUT refrain from exfoliation the day of your appointment.
- Avoid lotions and oils the day of your appointment as this makes sugaring very difficult.
- Caffeine can cause extra skin sensitivity.
- Hair must be grown out about 14 days after your last shave. The longer the hair, the better results!
- Avoid trimming, I'll do it for you if need be.
- Avoid spray tanning before sugaring, as it can remove the color.
After Care and Recommendations
- Avoid Touching! It's tempting to get your hands on your new silky smooth skin, but your hands carry bacteria that could potentially cause an infection to your freshly opened pores.
- Avoid Exercise. Sweat and bacteria could clog pores and irritate your skin. 24 hours.
- Avoid lotions with fragrance, products with harsh chemicals, and exfoliation directly after your appointment. As mentioned before, exfoliation is extremely important and is recommended daily to prevent ingrown hairs, but waiting 2 days after your sugar is the best time to start.
Between Your Appointments
- Get into a routine of exfoliating and moisturizing your beautiful skin! Gentle exfoliation daily will help to remove dead skin buildup and give your new hair opportunity to grow through the skin. But it doesn't stop there, exfoliation without moisturizing can cause dry skin, which your new hairs can get stuck underneath. Use an all natural oil to moisturize your skin and if you have sensitive skin, it may be best to avoid lotions with fragrance. The combination of exfoliation and moisturizing will give you optimal results for soft silky smooth skin!
- Once you begin sugaring, waiting 4-6 weeks between appointments is average and will give you the best results for hair removal.
