So I made it back to Sugared Beauty Bar, First time trying a Brazilian sugaring before my boudoir shoot and I'm not gonna lie, I was a little nervous, but I wanted to feel extra confident going into my shoot. Plus as a mom, I really don't have time for "arts and crafts" iykyk! Alyssa made the whole process so smooth, and gave me a lot of information and tips!
Here's what I learned: Sugaring is made from just sugar, water + lemon (yes... that's it). It's applied against the hair growth and removed with the growth (opposite of waxing), which helps with less ingrowns. And the best part... it's never hot, so no worrying about burns, just warm or room temp. It only sticks to the hair + dead skin, so it's actually really gentle and lightly exfoliating too.
Now let's be real... the first time? A little spicy. BUT it gets easier the more you go, and over time your hair grows back thinner and slower (we love that for us).
Honestly... if you're prepping for a trip, vacation, self-care day, or something like a boudoir shoot... I get the hype now !!!
It truly wasn't bad at all, and so quick! Alyssa was amazing and I'll definitely be back for more treatments! read more
