How to apply sugaring at home, the correct technique

Sugaring is a method of removing excess hair on the body using sweet caramel sugar. This type of hair removal can be done both in a salon and at home. You can make the pasta yourself, or buy it ready-made in the store. The good thing about this technique is that it allows you to reduce the intensity of hair growth. New hair grows soft and fine. Most women appreciated the technique, due to the long period of time between repeated procedures.

Sugaring techniques

Different hair removal methods have their own advantages. For the first time you may not get the desired effect, because... The method requires some skill, but you will soon get the hang of it. The technique is divided into:

  • manual;
  • manual with applications;
  • bandage;

How do the methods differ from each other? Each has its own pros and cons, and features in implementation. Let's look at which ones next.

Manual technology involves removing hair follicles manually. The advantages are hair removal without breaking, light massage, and no injury to the skin. Working with your hands allows you to feel which area requires specific pressure and speed.

A sugar ball is used, which is kneaded in the hands and applied to the body. The mass in your hands heats up and becomes plastic, which increases its grip with the hairs and allows you to achieve the best result. The only drawback will be insufficient knowledge in practice, but by practicing, honing your skills, you will achieve quick implementation without losing the result.

Appliqué

It is done manually by applying the composition to the skin. Flatbreads are made from caramel, pressed against the skin, and when heated they adhere to the hairs. They come off slowly. Applications are good for small sensitive areas, such as the bikini area and armpits. Economically, sugar caramel is used repeatedly and then simply thrown away. The easy technique is often used by beginners.

Quick hair removal, does not require special skill. This hair removal is not economical, since the sweet composition is applied with a special spatula and is evenly distributed over the body. Then strips of fabric or paper are applied. The large amount of space helps you work at a very fast pace.

Relevant for sensitive skin, excessive sweating, stretch marks, rosacea, frizz, and caramel not sticking to vegetation. For profitability, polymer strips can be used; after one section, they are glued to a new one and torn off. It is better to purchase strips in rolls, cutting them to the width and length as required.

Order of conduct

Before removing hairs, you need to follow a few simple rules. They will help you achieve better results. Before epilation you should not:

  • go to the sauna;
  • sunbathing in the sun, in a solarium;
  • make wraps;
  • do rough peeling;
  • heavy physical activity;

An important aspect will be the length of the hairs. They should not be too short or long. The optimal length is 5-6 millimeters. A length greater than 6 millimeters requires multiple passes over one place, the session will be delayed and it will be more difficult to work. For a significant effect, you need to take a warm bath and do a soft scrub. The latter will remove excess fat and the mixture will better adhere to the skin. Use baby talc or degreasing tonics. After some simple manipulations, you can begin depilation.

Applying sugar paste

Need to remember caramel is applied according to the growth of hairs, and removed against their growth. Apply paste prepared in advance at home. You can buy ready-made or prepare it at home from natural ingredients.

Desirable proportions for composition:

  • 250 grams of granulated sugar,
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice,
  • 2 tablespoons of water.

Stir everything and put on low heat. Cook until boiling, remembering to stir constantly. We accelerate when boiling so that the caramel does not stick to the bottom. Remove from heat; the color becomes copper. When the pasta has cooled, take it and roll it into small balls. Unused ones can be stored in the refrigerator until next use.

Knead the ball in your hands; it should become plastic and acquire a light golden color.

The paste should not stick to your hands.

Don't try to take too much at once; a thick layer won't work. We stretch the ball on the surface of the skin, one is enough for 2-3 repeated uses. Let it warm up with the skin and adhere, carefully remove it without sudden movements, apply it to a new area, repeat the movements.

Removing the paste

How to properly remove the sugar mixture from the skin so as not to leave excess vegetation. Movements should be refined, not sharp, but fast. Do not try to cover a large area at once; remove slowly. If there is any remaining vegetation, repeat again. Avoid being too sticky to avoid bruising. Make sure that no water gets into the mixture or onto the skin.

After a hair removal session, it is not recommended to take a bath, sunbathe, or apply fatty creams and lotions. They clog the pores and inflammation begins. Disinfect the epidermis with a disinfecting tonic or alcohol-based lotion. It is better to wear clothes made from natural fabrics, cotton, linen. You should not use a razor during breaks to avoid ingrown hairs.

In conclusion, I would like to add that sugaring allows the skin to remain smooth and soft for a long time. Each new procedure makes hair thin and invisible. The absence of allergies, ingrowths, complications such as burns and affordability make it attractive to many women.
