6 Reasons Why You Should Choose Sugar Waxing Over Razor

April 1, 2022

When it comes to painless hair removal, shaving is the first option that comes to our mind! And whenever we think about sugar waxing where the hair is ripped off from its roots, all we can think about is pain.

But did you know there are some clear benefits of sugaring instead of shaving?

  • Result

Shaving cuts off hair from the surface with a blade and is mechanical. As the razor cuts your hair extremely close to the skin, the chances of damaging the epithelial layer of your skin are high. On the other hand, in sugar waxing hair removal, the hair strand along with its follicle is plucked off, resulting in smooth skin for weeks.

  • Pain level

Shaving is a painless process minus the razor burns and can be done at home. While sugar wax hair removal is a painful process, the pain level varies from person to person according to their skin type, hair thickness, and tolerance level. According to experienced professionals and clients’ reports, sugaring is painful for the first time only. During the later sessions, the hair grows thinner, the pain diminishes considerably, and can be removed easily.

  • Impact on your skin

Shaving not only causes a burning and unpleasant sensation but other drawbacks like hyperpigmentation and skin roughness are also assured side effects. In addition, close shaving could cause micro-trauma like cuts and scratches. Other skin conditions like goose skin appearance and folliculitis could appear post-shaving. Sugaring, on the other hand, is soft hair removal. In addition to that, it also exfoliates mildly by removing the dead skin cells but does not damage the epidermis.

  • Hair condition

As pointed out earlier, hair is being cut, and with time, hair grows back thicker, and the rate of hair growth increases with every shaving. Small bumps and redness appear 2-5 hours post-shaving. Sugar waxing removes hair completely without breaking them. With time, the hair follicles get damaged, and hair gets thinner. After the treatment, there could be temporary redness, which goes away within a few hours.

  • Procedure frequency

Shaving makes the hair grow back faster in 1-2 days, and for smooth skin, you will have to shave almost every day. The procedure can become expensive as you need to but the equipment frequently. However, sugaring removes hair that doesn’t grow back soon. So you can forget about hair removal for the next 3- weeks.

  • Ingrown hair

Ingrown hairs are guaranteed side effects of shaving, especially in the armpit and bikini region. However, when performed the right way, sugar waxing hair removal, and being religious with the aftercare, ingrown hairs can be excluded altogether.

Wrapping it up

The benefits of sugar waxing are many, and for those who do not prefer much body hair, this could be the ideal option. However, there are specific skin conditions like sunburns, fungal infections, and other skin conditions where you should consult a specialist before you go for sugaring. With proper aftercare and a skincare routine, you can avoid bacterial infections.
