About Us
Stumbling onto Sugar, Lemon, and Water.
At Sugar in the City, we believe in natural, long-lasting, and painless beauty.
Our goal was to provide people with healthy and organic hair removal services that are completely suitable for all body parts and skin types.
After years of traditional waxing and trying all available hair removal methods, we stumbled upon Sugaring paste.
And the results and effects blew us away.
Sugaring is the all-natural ancient art of body hair removal
With the increased interest in more holistic methods of caring for ourselves the need to provide a natural type of permanent hair removal system was necessary.
Women in Egypt call this type of hair removal “HALAWA”. Body Sugaring is a safe and natural Egyptian method of hair removal. Unlike waxing it is applied at body temperature so there is no burning and it does not contain any irritating chemicals that might harm the skin.
Our method of body sugaring does not leave permanent scars, which can occur with electrolysis and laser techniques. Also our sugaring is gentle to the skin leaving it smooth and silky.
It is so gentle that it can be applied to any body part or skin type. Hair grows finer, lighter and sparser. There is only minor discomfort with long lasting results. Our sugar is environmentally safe and non-allergenic.
Our sugar can be used on men, women and children.
“It all started as a wish to find a hair removal method that can be completely organic, suitable for everyone, and long-lasting at the same time.”
Why Sugaring?
Organic
Sugaring paste is 100% natural, made of only three holistic ingredients: Lemon, Sugar, and Water. Unlike wax, which is often made of toxic chemicals.
Less Painful
Sugaring paste doesn’t burn, irritate or break the skin. It is applied cold and only removes hairs and lightly exfoliates the skin, leaving it smooth.
Long-Lasting
With sugaring, hair is pulled out in the direction of growth, resulting in more effective hair removal and less ingrown hairs in the long run.
Shorter Cycles
With SUGAR waxing, the hair needs to be only 1/6″ long before the treatment. Meaning, you won’t have to wait more than two weeks.
Safety First
Sugaring is safe for all skin types. It can be applied to all body parts safely, including the sensitive parts like face, neck and intimate regia.
Our Unique Sugaring Paste
The sugaring paste used in our salon is a hypoallergenic blend of simple natural ingredients with no chemical additives or toxic resins.
Thanks to the use of pure natural ingredients, lemon, sugar, and water, there is no fear of any harmful side effects.
Sugaring paste is biodegradable, creating no harm to the environment, and can be rinsed of the skin with pure water.
The Sugaring Process
The day before your sugaring appointment, make sure to moisturize your skin and avoid body scrubs and any kind of exfoliation. Don’t apply tanning creams 24-48 hours before the sugaring either.
On the Sugaring day, don’t apply body lotions and butter, avoid going to the swimming pools or ocean. Avoid sunbathing and sunbeds as well. Dress in loose comfortable clothes that won’t press and irritate your sugared skin.
The day after the Sugaring, hydrate your skin and ensure it is kept moist. During the next 24h since sugaring avoid any type of physical activity and sweating that might cause the sugared area to rub against skin or fabric.
