While it doesn’t pose any health risks, unwanted hair can be an embarrassing condition for many people. Hormonal imbalances, irregular menstrual cycles, certain medications, and post-pregnancy hormonal changes, can all cause unwanted hair issues for women. Aging also seems to bring about more unwanted hair too. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed my face has developed a lot more “peach fuzz,” and it’s really annoying!
Geranium oil may be less well-known than other oils, but that doesn’t make it any less useful! Get more familiar by learning 9 useful things you can do with geranium oil.
But before shelling out big money for treatments like laser hair removal, permanent waxing, electrolysis, etc., there are plenty of natural home remedies for hair removal that you may want to try first!
These at-home treatments can save you a LOT of money, while removing unwanted hair naturally and without any side effects. Today I’ll be sharing one method in particular that I’ve had a lot of success with—sugar wax!
And to make it, you’ll only need a few simple ingredients that may already have in your kitchen!
“Sugar waxing” or “sugaring” is a hair removal treatment that has been practiced for centuries throughout Northern Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East.
Rather than using wax that adheres to your skin and pulls on it when you are removing the hair, sugar binds to the hair and pulls it out at the root. This makes it especially great for individuals with sensitive skin and “peach fuzz” (like me!) because it’s less likely to cause irritation.
You can use it anywhere you would like to remove hair, but beforehand you want to grow the hair out to about 1/4″ in length to ensure that the sugar wax has enough hair to grab onto.
