Benefits of Sugaring
1. Technique Leading to Longer Lasting Results
Though waxing and sugaring are similar, there is one difference that leads to long-lasting results when it comes to sugaring. The sugarist will mold the ball of sugar onto your skin in the opposite direction of growth, and then will remove it in the direction of growth.
This is the opposite of waxing. Removing the hair in the opposite direction of growth places less pressure on the hair, decreasing breakage and leading to a higher likelihood of the hair being removed by the root. This causes more hairs to be completely removed and leads to longer-lasting results.

2. Sugar is Applied At Room Temperature
Unlike wax, that needs to be heated, sugar is applied at, or only slightly above room temperature. If sugar was to be heated too high, it would turn into a liquid and the sugarist wouldn’t even be able to use it! This benefits you in two ways.
Firstly, you will never be burned when getting sugared. Sugar hot enough to burn you is too hot to even be removed from the pot with a glove. (no sticks or spatulas are used) Secondly, the lack of heat leads to less redness and less swelling, a huge benefit if you have to be seen directly after your appointment!
