Persian(Sugaring) waxing

 

Sugaring, sugar waxing or Persian waxing is a method of hair removal. It is speculated that honey was the first sugaring agent. Sugaring was also known as sukkar in the Middle East and in Egypt, as aÄ?da in Turkey, and as moum in Iran.

 

 

 

Sugaring is often compared to standard waxing. During the process, a sugaring substrate sticks to and essentially removes hair without attaching to the skin. The substrate can be applied at room temperature or heated to a lukewarm temperature, minimizing the risk of burns.For this reason, sugaring is generally preferred over waxing when it comes to removing hair from larger areas of skin.Nevertheless, sugaring can result in skin irritation, sensitivity, and reaction.However, this can sometimes be prevented by taking an anti-histamine. Sugar itself is otherwise hypoallergenic.
