Transcript:Hair Removal: See the Sugaring Technique
Hi, I am Anjali Arora, Master Specialist of hair removal and skin care at Shobha, for About.com, and today I am going to show you a hair removal technique known as sugaring.What is Sugaring?
Sugaring is a natural alternative for wax. What you need, basically, for sugaring, is very simple: you need sugar, lemon juice, and water. You have to boil it to a right consistency and it can not be very watery, so you have to let the water evaporate and the consistency is like that of honey.Supplies Needed for Sugaring
To perform this service, what we need is some talcum powder, and then you need something to dip into your sugar solution. It can be a spatula or even a blunt knife. After that, you need a muslin or a denim strip. If the cloth is heavier it is better, because it is going to absorb more moisture. So for sugar we generally use denim.About videos are made available on an "as is" basis, subject to the User Agreement.
