Sugar depilation is better known as shugaring(bandage or manual). This is a completely natural method of hair removal, which can be carried out at home with just three simple ingredients: sugar, lemon juice and water. Like ordinary depilation, shugaring lasts a little longer than shaving, but it has some advantages compared to the wax method:
To prepare the skin for depilation will needscrub-lotion for cleaning and degreasing the skin, as well as talc without perfume. For the depilation, you need sugar paste, gloves, paper strips, spatula. After the procedure, it is recommended to cleanse the skin with thermal water, then apply a soothing and moisturizing lotion or cream.
There are several methods for conducting such aprocedures like shugaring: bandage technique (using depilatory strips) and manual (carried out manually, without the use of additional devices). Depending on the technology, different paste densities are selected. For bandage technology apply soft paste, for manual - tight. Pasta can be warmed or mashed, and then applied to the desired area against the direction of hair growth, and shoot on the growth.
A great advantage of shading bandage technologybefore other methods of hair removal is the lack of strong pain during the procedure. Over time, less ingrown hair becomes. After the procedure, the skin is soft and smooth. There are no red spots and signs of irritation. Such a brilliant result persists for a long time, as a rule, it's 3-4 weeks.
1.Before the depilation procedure, the skin needs to be cleaned and degreased. To do this, use a special lotion, for example with mint and birch extract. Birch extract has a disinfectant effect and prevents inflammation. The lotion can be sprayed onto the skin using an atomizer and evenly spread over the body with hands. Surplus lotion soap with a paper towel.
2.Cleaned and dried skin should be treated with talc. Powder is best to choose without extra additives and perfumes, it is advisable not to use baby talc, because there are often added fragrances and soothing agents. With its help, the skin will not be sticky, and the hair will be better and stronger to cling to the paste.
Bandage and manual sludge techniqueslightly, but differ from each other. A manual method involves the use of a good density paste that is applied manually. Preheated to forty degrees of mass (while it becomes viscous, like honey) is applied to the surface of the fingers against the growth of hair. The mixture is evenly distributed and remains for a few seconds for better fixation. Then you need to carefully turn the edge of the slightly cooled paste and cut off sharply in the direction of hair growth.
Shading bandage technique (photo below)is carried out with the help of additional tools and devices: you will need a cosmetic spatula and paper or cloth bandages for depilation. This method involves the use of a soft paste that heats up to forty-five degrees. Apply the mixture to the body with a spatula, then a band or bandage is applied, which after a couple of seconds is removed along with unwanted hairs.
Sugar hair removal is a hair removal procedureon the human skin by treating them with sugar paste and further radical removal along with the hair. What is shugaring (bandage technique) at home? Sugar paste can be prepared independently from improvised materials: water, sugar and lemon juice, and you can buy a ready version and do not waste time preparing. The paste is applied to the surface of the skin with unwanted hairs, special strips are firmly adhered to the skin, they are pressed well, and then they are removed with a sharp movement. Remains of the mixture can be washed off with warm water.
