The Ancient Middle Eastern’s placed a high importance on cosmetics, both for aesthetic and practical purposes.  Egyptian hieroglyphics described that the slave girls who were serving the Pharaoh were expected to remove their body hair.  To the people of the upper class it was considered to be unclean if you had body hair.

Hair removal dates back to as early as 1900BC.  In the British Museum’s famed Department of Egyptology it displays copper and bronze razors and also tweezers. There is also one combination of a razor/hair cutter/trimmer that dates back as far as 1450BC. These methods however have come a long way since 1450BC because back then it was very painful.

During the Turkish Empire, the harem was an important part of court life and during that time the removal of body hair was considered a form of art.  Therefore the art of hair removal has been handed down through generations and to this day certain Middle Eastern women still practice total body hair removal using sugaring.

After extensive research it has been determined that the current methods of waxing or shaving were only working to a limited extent. It has been found that the ancient form of sugaring could provide permanent, satisfactory results with benefits that would exceed the more commonly used methods such as waxing or shaving.

The biggest myth of all is that everyone thinks once you start shaving or waxing is that your hair will grow back faster and thicker. FALSE. There are certain areas of the body that will eventually produce heavier and darker hair through its predetermined programming at the time of birth.

Another myth is that people think with sugaring you need to grow your hair out as long as you do with waxing. FALSE. With sugaring you can actually have your hair shorter and it can still be extracted. The hair for sugaring at minimum has to only be 1/16″ that is just 5 days after shaving!

Now you may be thinking that it couldn’t just be made with 3 ingredients there has to be some kind of chemical in it. FALSE. The sugaring paste is made with just Sugar, Lemon, & Water. The reason why you may be thinking there could be chemicals in the sugar paste is because in today’s market some companies have added sugar with resins/waxes and have called it sugar wax.
