A sugarist is someone who uses sugar for hair removal instead of wax.

Sugaring is similiar to waxing in the sense that it removes hair.

Sugaring is a more environmentally friendly form of hair removal. You use just one ball of sugar when sugaring someone so there is a lot less waste.

It is made out of sugar, water and lemon juice and is heated until it is a candy like consistency. The lemon juice makes it smooth.

Sugar is gentler than wax because when you use wax, wax sticks to the skin. Sugar doesn’t adhere to the skin. So after, your skin feels soft and smooth and hair free.

Sugar in itself is a natural exfoliant. So you are gently exfoliating the dead skins cells at the same time a removing hair. (Think: a light peel for the skin on your body… which is an alpha hydroxy effect.)

It is also the traditional Persian method of hair removal.

To summarize sugar is a more gentle and effective way of removing hair over waxing.
