Sugaring Paste (Traditional) or Sugaring Wax (modern): Which is right for you?

There are 2 methods to sugaring **For beginners & those whose hairs are naturally thick, I always suggest starting with sugaring paste. Once your hairs begin to grow back thinner & sparser (given you've heeded the advice of removing hairs at 1/8" growth Anagen stage with sugaring), then would be a great time to try the sugaring wax. **For those whose hairs naturally grow thin and/or have been faithful waxers & would like a different, natural alternative, go ahead & try the sugaring wax. You can still use sugaring paste as well. If you are not certain which way to go you can message me directly and I’ll walk you through picking out the best product for you.

Can sugaring make hair removal last forever?

It is possible to become permanently hairless if you sugar yourself correctly and regularly. If and how long it will take you to stay hairless depend on several factors. As every human being is an individual, there are individual hair types, so it could be the case that you stay hairless after a few treatments whereas others may need much more. Also, the method you previously used to remove hair has a strong influence. Hair growth intensity is stronger in some areas of the body than in others; in these areas it will naturally take more treatments. Use Sugaring Paste at the Anagen stage of growth if your goal is permanency. Refer to http://www.jbhomemade.com/science-sugaring-leads-to-permanent-hair-removal for more science on the matter.

How long does JBHomemade’s Sugaring Paste or Wax last?

You should close the container immediately after using the paste. When kept dry and stored at room temperature (65-70 degrees) in a dark place JBHomemade Sugaring Paste and Wax should last at least 12 months.

Does Sugaring hurt as much as waxing?

I can answer in my opinion No way. (Depending on your sensitization, tolerance of pain level, etc., that is.) This answer varies as well. Variants: #1 - Length of hair (most people report that the longer the hair is, the more the sugar is felt is the spreading action, but less so in the removal action).**Trim hair to 1/4" for best results for a first time user. **After the first use, hair can be as short as 1/8" and it is even less painful than the first time because hairs are already finer and sparser. #2 - Use of corn starch or powder greatly reduces the amount of pain. #3 - Follow instructions to the tee! Research, watch vids, and see in action before attempting blind. Know what you are doing before you try it.

How to store JBHomemade’s Sugaring Paste and Wax?

Sugaring MUST be stored at room-temperature. Do not store it in the fridge. Close the container tightly and securely so it will not absorb moisture from the room which can change sugar gel texture. Always store you’re Organic Sugaring Paste and Gel/Wax in a cool, dry place, ideally between 60-70°.

I am prone to ingrowns, what can I do to help this?

There are a few basic things you can do to reduce and get rid of ingrown hairs. First and foremost, exfoliate and moisturize! Using a natural bristle body brush, exfoliating cloth or brush, or our exfoliating scrub (recommended); you’ll keep dead skin cells from trapping new hair growth under your skin. The second step is to keep your skin healthy and moisturized. A good rule of thumb is, whenever your skin gets wet (after every shower or bath) moisturize. If you find your ingrown are painful and pustulous, add an antibacterial ingredient to disinfect and help draw out the bacteria. Before Sugaring: Oatmeal Mint Brown Sugar Scrub After Sugaring: Any of the oil based scrubs are great for after care!

What are the benefits of sugaring?

Short and sweet, some of the benefits include: Much less painful than traditional waxing Eliminating ingrown hairs and preventing new ones Extracting all hair colors and textures Gentle on skin allowing for reapplication for missed hairs Improved skin tone and texture More sanitary than waxing, Sugaring is never recycled and there is no “double dipping” Can lead to permanent hair removal Water soluble for an easy clean up Eco friendly All natural ingredients For a more detailed explanation, head on over to the website here: www.jbhomemade.com
