In Europe, this unique procedure has long enjoyed great popularity among connoisseurs of perfectly smooth, silky skin. Russian women of fashion now also had the opportunity to experience the method of Nefertiti herself. After all, according to legend, superfluous hairs from the luxurious body of the queen of the slave were removed with the help of frozen sugar syrup. It turns out, the birthplace of the original manipulation - the ancient East.
Later, this unpretentious recipe from the Egyptians was borrowed by the Persians. In those distant times the bald spot in Persia was considered an indicator of real manliness, and the representatives of the stronger sex transferred tons of sugar, trying to match the given parameters. Hence the second name of the procedure is "Persian hair removal".
In Tunisia, sweet hair removal shugaring is still one of the traditional wedding rituals. Each bride in front of the altar must undergo "purification with sugar." Many Muslim women use syrup to maintain the body in perfect purity, as prescribed by their religious doctrines.
Shugaring is not an expensive procedure in the beauty salon, because its composition is elementary simple: water and sugar. But if for some reason you can not afford to visit the salon, you can clean the skin at home. This is not difficult at all.
According to the principle of action, shugaring resembles a wax depilation, but it has a whole list of beneficial advantages.
1) The natural composition, which does not contain chemical components, guarantees the absence of allergic reactions even in individuals with very sensitive skin. A stand of redness or irritation after flushing the composition on the body will not remain. The result will be only perfect velvety skin.
2) In comparison with other similar procedures, unnecessary vegetation is removed almost painlessly, the skin is not injured. Even very short (1 - 2 mm) hairs disappear without a trace. For areas with delicate skin (bikini, decollete) - this method is just a find!
3) Oh, a miracle! No "ingrown hairs" and flaky skin! All cells of the epidermis remain in their rightful places, the syrup eliminates only the hairs.
4) Absence of inflammatory reactions allows using paste in the most problematic places several times.
5) The temperature of the mixture usually does not exceed the body temperature, so the method is safe even for people with varicose veins and vascular asterisks.
6) Hairs are extracted together with the bulbs in the direction of growth, which significantly slows down their recovery processes. The effect of this hair removal lasts no less than twenty days.
7) After use, the syrup is easily washed off from the body with ordinary warm water, leaving no trace and stickiness.
8) Concentrated sugar prevents the spread of bacteria.
Attention! The method can not be used for people with diabetes. Individual intolerance to the components of the composition, pustular and inflammatory skin diseases are also contraindications for use. If you do not have the above problems, you can safely embark on the mystery of transforming your skin into something perfect: smooth, silky, radiant!
To prepare shugaring at home, you need 200 grams of sugar, a tablespoon of water and a half of lime. You can use the usual lemon - the proportions are the same.
In the refractory bowl, mix the previously prepared ingredients and bring to a boil over low heat. To ensure that the mixture does not harden and does not stick to the bottom and walls of the saucepan, stir it all the time. Boil the sugar water for at least ten minutes! Fire in any case can not be done more or less! The temperature should not change! Be careful, the mixture can not be digested, watch for color.
If the process of preparation has changed the color from transparent to golden brown - everything goes as it should, you get it! Pale, unsaturated color indicates that the process has not yet been completed. Observe also the transformation of the smell: the ready syrup, as a rule, smells of caramel. Probably, someone cooked such candies for children, or he began to eat them in childhood. If you really want to - get even now, but do not forget about the high calorie content of the product!
After ten minutes we remove the dishes from the fire, let the resulting composition cool down. But first you need to find out the degree of readiness of the mixture. Take a little to the tip of your finger and try to roll the ball. If it works out - the mixture is ready for use. If the syrup spreads, the experiment did not end well. Use this brew for the intended purpose - nothing will come of it.
Do not despair! Try to make "candies" again, only now use less water. At you all necessarily will turn out! And the end result will instantly make you forget about the failed first attempt.
So, the syrup is ready - let's get to work! We are preparing another ball - now for business. It must be rolled on the selected area of the skin necessarily against hair growth! We will tear off in the opposite direction parallel to the skin with a quick, sharp movement. Another hand at the same time pulls the skin, facilitating the process of epilation. Some ladies prefer to do the latter slowly and accurately, mistakenly believing that they are protecting themselves from acute pain. This is an illusion! The sharper the leap, the less pain. If the syrup has cooled sufficiently simply to heat it on low heat and it is again ready for use.
To facilitate a more rigid wax depilation, fabric strips are used. You can also use them in the process of "sugar" skin treatment.
At the end of the procedure, do not forget to wash off the remainder of the syrup with warm water. Done! It remains only to admire the result of its fruitful activity and go on a visit to friends or to a party. Now you know what a sweet hair removal shugaring in a beauty salon. Believe me, your feet will nowhere go unnoticed anywhere!
