Both! I encourage clients to have the right to choose what is most comfortable for them. Sugaring and waxing services are catered to YOUR skin & hair type - and both products can be used on multiple areas. If you aren’t sure which would be best suited for you, or the area you are hoping to have waxed/sugared, I am happy to help guide you on your decision with a detailed consultation prior to having your services done.

The main difference between waxing and sugaring is the application. Waxing is performed by using a spatula to apply warm wax WITH the hair growth pattern, ripping it off via cloth strip that is applied on top of the wax, against the grain. Sugaring is applied by hand, OPPOSITE the hair growth pattern, and ripped off using a flicking motion of the wrist, with the grain.

Sugar paste is all-natural, containing only water, sugar & lemon. This service is perfect for delicate areas like the Brazilian or underarms, or for our clients with a bit more of a sensitive skin type. Sugar works well on coarse hair. This service is also known to help with irritation and ingrown hairs. Healing time with the sugar paste is 6-12 hours.

Waxing is great for large areas like the legs, arms chest or back, or for precision waxing services like eyebrows. It can be applied and removed in larger strips, and is great for medium or very fine like textured hair - peach fuzz, if you will. Healing time with the warm wax is 12-24 hours.
