Before Sugaring

ALLERGIES, MEDICATIONS, SUPPLEMENTS ~ Disclose all allergies prior to service during intake. If you are taking any medications including over the counter pain killers like (Advil or Tylenol), you can have adverse reactions to sugaring such as, thinning of the skin, dehydration, and bruising. Supplements like vitamin C can thin you blood increasing chances of bruising.
TOPICAL EXFOLIANTS ~ Stop use of Retin A, Retinol, Retinoids, AHA's, BHA's, Enxymes, Fruit Acids, Acids, Peels, 7 days prior to service, otherwise a doctor's note will be needed. Faces are particularly susceptible to scabbing or lifting if topical exfoliants have been used right before hair removal.
HAIR GROWTH ~ The hair must be at least 1/8th of an inch long or have 1-3 weeks out growth to be removed successfully.
PATCH TEST ~ Particularly for a full face sugaring, we recommend you do a 24hr patch test on a small area to see how your skin reacts.
SCRUB OR SOAK ~ Scrub with an OIL FREE scrub 2-4 times a week. Alternatively you may soak in a bath for 20 minutes to exfoliate entire body, do not use oils in bath right before the appointment.
FRESHLY SHOWERED ~ Come to your appointment right after your shower, clean off ALL oils, creams, and lotions. Choose a scrub or soap that does not leave unwanted residue.
NO SUN BATHING ~ No sun bathing, tanning booths, or spray tanning, 72 hours prior to your appointment.
LOOSE CLOTHING ~ Bring a clean set of loose clothes to wear after your service. Tight or sweaty clothes can cause ingrowns and breakouts.
BRAZILIAN PREP or THICK HAIR? ~ You should trim all dense areas down to 1/4th of an inch, do not trim to short especially if it is your first time!
