Body sugaring is the oldest method of hair removal known to mankind. Its practice has been documented as far back as Ancient Egyptian times. This simple hair-removal technique involves covering areas of unwanted hair with a thick, syrupy mixture of sugar and water. Once in place, the mixture hardens and can then be ripped off, taking unwanted hair with it. You can do sugaring yourself at home, though it is a bit messy. You can also choose a body sugaring practitioner to help you get the professional results you desire.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1

Check with local day spas and salons to find out which ones have body sugaring practitioners on staff. You can use your local telephone book or the Internet to find these places.

Step2

Choose four to five body sugaring practitioners to interview. Try to get an in-person appointment for a consultation. If the practitioner is unable to do this, talk to her over the telephone.

Step3

Ask pertinent questions regarding prices, policies and areas of the body where the practitioner will do sugaring. Be sure to inquire about the actual process of sugaring and what you can expect.

Step4

Pay special attention to the personality of the practitioner. If this is someone you plan on visiting regularly in the future, you'll need to make sure your personalities are compatible. The practitioner should also be someone you're comfortable being around and dealing with on a regular basis.

Step5

Make sure price is a factor in your decision. Fees vary widely.

Step6

Make an appointment with your chosen practitioner for your first sugaring experience.

Tips & Warnings

Choose a body sugaring practitioner who has some experience in the procedure. Someone who has only recently learned how to do sugaring may be cheaper than a more experienced person, but you may not be as happy with the results of your sugaring session. Someone with at least 2 to 3 years of experience is best.
Ask for references and referrals from other clients if you have any concerns about the practitioner's abilities.
