Sugaring Paste VS Hot Wax

PURE AND NATURAL INGREDIENTS

APSugaring paste is made from NATURAL INGREDIENTS with no testing on animals and with no harmful side effects caused by allergic reactions. It is so natural you can eat it!

Hot Wax has many chemical ingredients, mostly resins and preservatives.

IT IS NOT AS HOT

AP Sugaring paste is applied at body temperature making it safe for ALL AREAS even for spider veins and vericose veins.

Hot wax must be heated to a very high degree in order to become liquefied. This amount of heat can cause burning and scarring.

IT IS EASY TO CLEAN UP

Sugar can be easily cleaned with water – from both your client and your equipment. Clients never feel sticky after treatment.

Hot Wax contains resins, chemical solvents are required to remove it from the floor, equipment etc, which can be costly to replace. After waxing, the client usually feels sticky.

IT WILL NOT STICK TO THE SKIN

Sugar cannot adhere to live skin cells. Live cells are wet, and because sugar is water soluble, it will not adhere to live skin cell. It will extract the hair and exfoliate the dead skin cells, helping to free ingrown hairs. It's also safe on dry itchy eczema and dry psoriasis. It is gentle enough to go over the same area several times when necessary to extract the shortest and most coarse hair, without causing skin damage and irritation.

Wax has been known to remove more than just the hair, since it can adhere directly to live skin cells, which make waxing painful and irritating. Wax cannot be applied to an area more than twice at the most.

IT IS MORE COST EFFECTIVE

AP Sugaring paste can be used over and over on different parts of the body and is discarded after each treatment.

Wax can be more costly due to constant dipping for each strip applied.

IT NEVER DRIES

Sugar will not dry, so you can work over an entire area without ever dipping and stripping.

Most waxes must be removed immediately before they dry. This means repetitious dipping and stripping, making the process longer than necessary.

IT WILL NOT BREAK AS MANY HAIRS

AP Sugaring paste wraps around the hair shaft making it pliable, while seeping below the mouth of the follicle and lubricating the hair to make the extraction more complete and gentle. The hair is eased out of the follicle only in the natural direction of growth, which help to extract the hair intact.

Waxing can leave 15-30% breakage behind due to wax hardens on the hair, it has the tendency to break it off at the surface, rather than pull it out.

CAN EXTRACT VERY SHORT HAIRS

AP Sugaring requires less than 1/16 inch or four to seven days growth, after shaving.

Wax products require at least two to three weeks growth before treatment when a client is shaving.

LEADS TO PERMANENCY

After a number of treatments the hair follicle begins to deplete. The hair growth is more fine each time. Because sugar can extract the shortest hair, it is possible to extract hair in the early anagen phase, which can lead to permanency.
