Sugaring
Sugaring is often compared to waxing because they both use a similar manner to remove the hair-pulling it from the root. One if the biggest differences in sugaring and waxing though, is the pain that results. Waxing hurts…A LOT. Sugaring is a much less-painful way to remove your unwanted hair. Real sugaring is made from all natural ingredients…usually water, lemon juice, and sugar! Another amazing benefit of sugaring is that it’s water soluble….which means it can be cleaned up and removed with warm water! I don’t know if you have ever waxed at home, but it can quickly become a sticky horrible mess! Sugaring only attaches to your hair and dead skin cells…not to your actual skin (like wax). This is the reason that it hurts less, and isn’t as likely to cause damage to your skin! So give sugaring a try…see if you like it better than waxing!

I learned how to do threading almost 2 years ago & I love it! I do my eyebrows twice a month & my whole face once a month. I constantly get asked where I get my eyebrows done because they look so great 😉
We (always) use threading in Middle East. I lived in Canada, and it was difficult to find someone who knows how to do threading. Until I found Indian women, they are really good in doing this. Look for them.
I have had the thread hair remover on my upper lip and let me tell you it hurts like crazy but it works great . The hair that grows back is much thinner with time and it stays hair free longer. You will find that salons owned by oriental girls will have someone who knows how to do it.
I am doing this to me and my mum, I love it! It really defines your eyebrows, and it is so easy. I have heard that, waxing your eyebrows is not good for sensitive skin around your eyes.
I have had my brows threaded for years. It is common here and is frankly much cheaper than waxing, not to mention it is apparently easier on the the skin. The accuracy is better than waxing as well.
As for other body parts I have had the girl thread stray hairs after waxing my legs. Faster and easier than tweezing.
