or look into sugaring instead. I refuse to do wax.

Interesting! As someone who has tried sugaring only in the middle east, I am curious as to why you choose sugaring? Can you give me more info?

Hi Amy! Sugaring only removes dead cells out of the skin vs wax that removes more than that.

Since the stratum corneum is composed of dead skin...Both wax and sugaring remove dead skin. Hard wax removes very little of it while soft removes more. But both only exfoliate skin.

You need to do more research before making this kind of statement. You can't fool people into thinking that the hair is not there when it is. Sugar works very well.

I'm confused by what you mean. Are you responding to me or body&skin? Two things...Neither one of us is trying to fool anyone about there being hair or not. So you're coming out of left field with that. The discussion is about sugaring and waxing removing too much skin when doing hair removal. I'm sure sugaring works well. But there's no reason to bash waxing to promote it. Because if waxing is done properly one would not remove more than dead skin cells.
One could say that sugaring is possibly idiot proof because perhaps it's more gentle. But I'm getting frustrated by the sugaring promotions that are claiming it's superior to wax in X amount ways where ridiculous and exaggerated claims are then inserted to prove a point.
And not only that but why do it in a forum where a ton of people are waxing professionals? Would that not offend us? I'm not bashing sugaring. But if I wanted to I would say it takes longer than waxing and doesn't pick up stubborn hairs. Which..let's face it...who of us hasn't come across some tough hairs on practically everyone? So while I believe sugaring has a good place in the treatment room, it shouldn't disinclude waxing services.

I agree with this, and I am over hearing whether or not waxing or sugaring is better. The reality is that everyone has a different hair and skin combination. While one person may respond better to one type of medium, another person may not do well with the same one. This is why I decided not to remove hard or strip waxing from my menu, so now I offer all three mediums: hard wax, sugar paste, or strip wax. I've found, out of all three, that the sugar paste when used in the authentic manner has proven to be superior but that's because of the method that the hair is pulled out: in it's natural direction of growth vs. opposite when waxed. When it's done this way, the root comes out cleanly. The hair takes longer to regenerate, and the pores do not have as much trauma. Unfortunately there's a handful of people who don't do well with sugaring because of variable reasons; allergies to citrus, etc.
For eyebrows, I don't think the sugar paste (when manipulated onto the skin) does a precise job. If it's a softer consistency, it will do a good job with a stick and strip - but not in the traditional method of application. I noticed that I had to go back and tweeze more than remove the bulk of brow hair.

I bought a book called Beautiful Brows by Nancy Parker and Nancy Kalish - really helpful! Also, visited their website www.eyebrowz.com - lots of useful tools and tutorials.
