First Timer? Sugaring vs Waxing — 5 Things You Need To Know!
30 April 2020We know it’s sad but true, nowadays many people give misleading information about beauty tips, especially hair removal.
When it comes to hair removal methods, sugaring and waxing are both popular alternatives to shaving. We are sorry to say that the most famous myth that said SUGARING IS TOTALLY PAINLESS THAN WAXING is true! There is something you should now, the wax they talk about is strip wax, not hard wax.
You don’t want to miss that smooth and silky skin on your body for this summer, right? For those first timer babes, don’t worry, we’ll give a short explanation about sugaring and waxing.
Sugaring is an organic hair removal method, as it consists of natural ingredients, such as: sugar (obviously!), lemon juice and water. They were melted down at low up to medium heat and once it is cooled, it can be applied to your skin.
Meanwhile, waxing uses waxes made from resins and tree by-products to remove the hair from its root. Babes, this is the part where you need to emphasize that waxing has two methods, hard wax and strip wax. Hard wax is applied in a thicker layer, and then it hardens before it is removed. Unlike strip wax, hard wax is removed without a strip. Hard wax is advisable for sensitive areas, while strip wax is for the large areas such as legs, back & arms.
Good news for you, Pink Parlour uses hard wax as the hair removal method. Why? Because it will last longer. Okay, let’s go to the next level, comparison between sugaring and waxing!
PAIN LEVEL
About the sugaring is the painless alternative to waxing, yup, rumours have it. Waxing unfortunately can be painful and causing people to squirm during the treatment. BUT, the wax they talk about is strip wax, not hard wax! It’s not something to be sweaty, Pink Parlour will assure you to have the best painless waxing experience. And with hard wax for sure!
WHICH LASTS LONGER?
Well, this is kind of a tricky question as different ingredients and different salons have different results. Sugaring can help you get that silky smooth skin you’re craving for, but sorry to say that on average, sugaring only lasts up to 3 weeks, while hard waxing lasts up to 6 weeks.
DURATION
While one session sugaring takes up to 45-minute, hard waxing less takes only 20-minute, which will save your busy time!
PRICE
Sugaring and waxing both cost similar amounts of money. However, in some cases, the cost of sugaring treatment is higher by about 10-20% than hard waxing.
