This is all I use now to wax my entire body! It’s less painful and I even have permanet hair loss in areas and because I stick to a routine I only have to do it once a month!
She said it's less painful. There is still pain, what do you expect, you're pulling your hair out, of course there is. There are Cremes you can put on half an hour before waxing so you don't feel anything, but I recommend the natural way as some might have side effects
i'm north african and here sugaring is all what we've been using for ages, my mom, grandmothers, great grandmothers, great great grandmothers, and it's still the only technique we still use till this time, even in modern life and with all different other tools and techniques it's the most effective one imo... it may be a little messy but only if you over heat it or keep it still in your palm or elsewhere during the removal, bc the mere fact that you keep it still ruins it, idk how to explain but you have to kinda play with it? throughout the hair removal session, kind of keep rolling over itself it and try to make it consistently in a round shape so it doesn't expand and melt, that's the trick, but only if you have a lot to remove, if you're going to do your armpits you just have to stretch it and use a cloth or something to remove it at once, hope this helps!
The hardest part about sugar waxing is getting the right consistency. I always cook it too little or too much so I gave up on it. That aside, sugar waxing is much better for the environment and I honestly really like it. If I could buy pre made sugar wax it would be my go to.
It's better than wax. You pull it to the direction of the growth and not against it, so less ingrown hairs, and it usually hurts less when done correctly. Also cheap to make on your own.
I think it's a palette knife if I recall they're for removing baked things like cakes or pies, it also perfectly scrapes the mixing bowl of leftover mix, as it's flexible.
Yesss it is , A whole month without hair, smoothness, to remove dead skin, reduce pores, clear skin, and no hair under the skin, and this is the most important point
Oh I love her channel. She actually teaches you how to make your own sugar at home. As well as body butters, organic scrubs, cuticle oils and so much more. A gem of a chanel truly.
I spend extra money to go to a proper salon that does sugaring. It's great! Especially if you have super sensitive skin! Sugaring is waaaay better than regular waxing
I’m 21 now, used to do this all the time when I was 13-14. I could go weeks without waxing, sometimes months. The hair would take longer to grow back each time and would be thinner and thinner every time it grew. All I needed to do was go to the dollar store, get some lemon juice and sugar, and I could wax for half a year off of 2 bucks. $4 a year spent on hair removal?? Heck yeah! And I’m sure if I was consistent, I wouldn’t have any hair today lol. I’m definitely gonna go back to doing this. It’s time consuming and can be very messy though so I would always do it on an old towel or t-shirt. My hands would always be so sticky. But definitely worth it Edit: I wanna add that I do have some spots on my legs that no longer grow hair at all. And it’s been nearly a decade since I’ve done this. The only place I haven’t tried is my bikini area and face, but I have done this on my legs, arm pits, arms, even my chest and happy trail area! Oh, and my knuckles on my hands and feet. You can use this anywhere, I honestly think this is the best hair removal method ever. And there are 2 different types of waxes: sugar and honey. The sugar one you can use your hands, but you need to use cloth strips for the honey. I haven’t used the honey one but I’ll probably use that for my face and/or bikini area.
I know it's kinda late to ask for this but how did you make it? :') I've tried to do it thrice (with sugar), but the texture always turns out to be too hard or too liquid :/
@@loser21060 Yeah, that part is always tricky lol. You gotta take it off the stove at exactly the right time, when the bubbles turn into a champagne color. And while I do boil it, I always take a bit, run it under the cold water, and touch it to see if it’s ready before taking the rest off. I hope this helps a bit!
My mom only ever did homemade wax. I didn't know it was called sugaring but I can tell you it's edible and delicious off the spoon (basically just caramelized sugar with lemon juice)

I haven't tried this exact method, but I used a sugar wax with cotton strips and it was still pretty bad. Don't have a comparison to regular wax, but was really red with bleeding spots and took FOREVER to even get close to the point it could be pulled when put on. I will say when I managed to do it right it worked well. Pulling hair will always be pulling hair though
I have sensitive skin and go to a salon for my sugaring. The first time was definitely the worst in terms of pain afterwards ( I was tender about a day) but since sticking to it monthly it's been actually less traumatizing to my skin than shaving with no itching, redness or bumps! Had a terrible experience with waxing so was very hesitant with sugaring but so glad I've tried it. My salon also offers a mud mask after your sugaring that helps prevent ingrown hairs and soothes the skin. Definitely would recommend it if waxing wasn't good and shaving is getting too much of a chore. Added bonus the hair grows back softer and thinner when you stay on a 4-5 week schedule.
Have only sugared for ~4 months, but in my experience it does a good job getting all the hair out in one application (might leave a hair or two which you can pluck with a tweezer anyway). You also don't have to use a lot for an entire leg, which is great. The only drawback is that you have to do it in a cold room as it can get too runny when warm (which can result to pulling it the wrong way and you can end up with tiny bruises). The first time is always painful, but now it doesn't hurt anymore for me even "down there." I use a damp towel (not soaking) to wipe off the stickiness and follow with a cotton pad with witch hazel toner. I get a smooth result each time 😀
Sugaring works well on dry skin. I have dry skin and it was fine. The trick is to keep the hair length short to get much pain. Overtime the hair growth slows down. Hair becomes softer.
It works pretty well for me. My legs were always itchy after waxing but with sugar paste it'ss not a problem anymore. I have very light, thin hair and wax never pulled the full thing out correctly (it was like I shaved, after 3 days I had to do it all over again) but sugaring lasts a lot longer.
Sugaring is awesome because you wait for it to cool down completely pretty much, so you don’t risk burning yourself (regular wax) and it’s a lot easier to remove residue bc it’s just sugar, so you only need warm water. Regular wax leaves the most annoying residue no matter what I do. Important tip: exfoliate before to prevent ingrown hairs, apply pressure immediately after flicking and it will reduce pain, aloe Vera is nice after you’re done if you have some remaining stinging or irritation

Another reason why I love sugaring is it doesn’t attach to the skin. It’s only attaching to the hair! Every other way attaches to the shin and that’s what causes the most pain
I was surprised that women in other countries are shaving or waxing their legs when the first time I saw videos on tiktok because in my country women are not doing this, for me having hair on our legs or arms is unique. I like it!
My sensitive skin can't handle both waxing and sugar waxing. It makes my skin red and inflamed for 3 days. I have hair with big follicles. Like once u pull the first strip, all u see is thick white dots. I think lazer is my only resort. But I'm too broke for that
I used to shave and wax so much as a teenager and now I don’t even have to shave 😂 my hairs are so thin that I don’t ever notice it unless if I stare at it or feel my hairs when I take off my pants. And as I got older, my body hairs stopped bothering me because I only did it for others. I used to lie and say it was for myself.
Its actually called shira , sugaring is the english translation. And shira was invented in ancient iraq . Most iraqis know how to make it at home and jave a designated ugly pan for it (bc the pan or pot becomes unusable for cooking after since its so hard to remove the shira)
I finally broke down and got laser hair removal. No matter the method, I always got ingrown hairs from waxing and shaving. Zero regrets. Go to a professional!
I spent a fortune on laser and it has grown back now in my bikini area. Cannot re do as the hair is much lighter now. Won't work so am waxing etc again 😡
You have to be super super sure the sugar wax cools down enough for you to use. Obvious I know but it can trick you at times. If it feels warm to touch it's most likely going to leave a burn I find. You should spot test it before applying. Most recipes work
this is the Egyptian waxing 🇪🇬❤ Sugaring is a traditional ancient Egyptian method of hair removal.❤🇪🇬 This technique is safe and 100% natural, using a paste made from lemon🍋, sugar and water. There are no chemical additives and it can be applied on any body part. It's applied to the skin and removes hair in the direction of the hair growth It is called by the local name "Halawa". 😊🍬🍯
I used to love sugaring but it takes too long to make and the temperature in the room has to be right other wise it gets too runny. I have so much hair that I can't reuse my pieces like this lol
‼️‼️DO YOUR LEGS ACTUALLY FEEL SILKY SMOOTH LIKE THEY DO AFTER SHAVING ❓❓❓‼️‼️ I've always wanted to know this but no one has ever answered it. Because what's the point of looking like you have no hair on your legs but it's extremely prickly and feels like sandpaper!! Please answer anyone who knows! Are there any shaving alternatives that actually leave you feeling silky smooth besides laser hair treatment? I absolutely cannot stand to feel prickly at all I literally have been shaving every single day since 7th grade. I cannot stand the feel of prickles
WHY DOES NO ONE ANSWER THIS QUESTION EVER??? Ive been checking back every single day because I want to know so badly but literally I the second I ask this everyone stops replying. So legit that makes me think it just visually removes the hair and doesn't actually make you soft. Otherwise why would this question be ignored on the like literally 20 videos I've asked it on?
@@WhitneyDahlinHi! I did sugar waxing care by professional. It was my first time and the result is 10/10. After the waxing, my skin is soooo smooth. Will do it again after a month or so.
@@binibini7779 THANK YOU!! I am check back every so often to find out! How long did the smoothness last? I know it's different for everyone but I just don't want to even bother if you get prickly really fast. Because it's not just the appearance of hair that bothers me it's the prickliness that drives me up a wall.
sugaring (in my opinion!) also hurts less if done correctly because you pull the hair in the direction it grows, causing less irritation! make sure to take a warm shower and do a little scrub before btw, i found it helps with the hair coming out easier :)
@@Jess-737 I'm so glad there was a brave curious soul way back when, because I love me some caramel. Actually, it seems almost sacrilege using it for waxing.... Unless it's waxing itself right across the top of my ice cream.
I’ve always wanted to try sugaring bc I have such issues after shaving (dry skin, razor rash/burn, & I have strawberry legs) but I don’t even know where to begin 🤦🏻♀️
ANOTHER FANTASTIC TIP: in case you chicken out or get in an area, you don’t want it this washes off with a little bit of warm water. No stress, no mess.❤
Yep, I used it about a decade (from 25-35) and no longer need to! My legs are hair free- and I had the scary East European semi-gorilla look, lol😅! Too bad it doesn't work on my fem- beard and mustache😭. I did electrolysis for years on my lower face and not even weed killer would take out the roots of these things! I console myself knowing every other woman in my group (esp. over 40) is dealing with the same issue.😄 You can overdo it tho. The ones who have removed even the baby fuzz look like plastic Stepford wives🤣. I guess I removed just enough to not end up joining the circus.
@@transbiologistthetransesto7956 Unrelated to hair but I'm trans and work in a health field... Yay for trans biologists! It is getting better and we are finally becoming able to more openly work in professional jobs
I love sugaring but I started shaving(with an electronic razor) between every occasional sugaring session because: 1)your hair has to be long to stick to the sugar 2) im scared to burn myself or rip off my skin so I get a sugaring professional (who happens to be my moms friend) to do it 3) when she does it she gets every little hair which takes abt 2 hours for my arm and legs
I’m a sugar waxer for life. Used to do regular waxing and would get so red and itchy from it. Sugaring is so much better. I use little cards that came with my orders that are basically just like credit cards like she said
It depends on your pain threshold. I’ve been living with a chronic pain condition since I was 14 so waxing isn’t really painful to me. And it saves time instead of shaving, especially being 6’1 so long legs = long time to shave lol but of course personal preference. But waxing is quicker, more efficient for some, can prevent ingrowns in you’re prone to them and you generally wax less often than you shave so there’s the appeal for some 😊
@@anyamiranda9452 they make home laser treatments now. You no longer have to go to salons and pay thousands. They cost like $200 but imagine how much money you're saving in your lifetime not repeatedly buying razors, creams, wax, etc on a biweekly basis and just using the same device until the hair no longer grows back at all. Also, if you get them from stores like QVC, it's paid in several smaller payments monthly rather than upfront.
Omg I love abetween!!! She's the first that taught me how to remove all of them hairs through sugaring which I've doing for the past couple years! You better mentioned her Dr. Anthony 😂😭💗
@@It5tete never heard of that. From where I am from women do sugaring for centuries ans it is the opposite way ? Can someone explain why it is différent ?
Every esthetician I’ve talked to says the same thing: sugar wax sucks. Soft or hard wax is the way to go, laser removal and electrolysis are more permanent options. In my experience, sugaring just couldn’t keep a grip on my strong as hair so i was mainly getting vellus hairs (that’s those thin “blonde” hairs you can see on your body). Definitely would try if you’re just doing it at home though, use caution and if it works for you, yay 🎉!
But remember that male or female, screw society because you do not have to shave! The more people that dont, the more society accepts it and the more people are liberated in the future
It's almost considered an ancient way used to remove hair in iraq .. it's called aloucha .. and yes it's useful ..the second one is sheera same aloucha but more liqudy texchure and they use piece of cloth with it ..they stretch it on the cloth then stick it on the skin ..removal is like waxing .. the third way is using threads .. also there is shaving .. wax .. and machines that works like the thread method ..
Ok so as an Indian I am no stranger to sugering but it's very difficult to do because sugar is so goddamn sensitive. If it's too hot that day, it will keep melting too fast. If it's too cold, it would dry up and form lumps in your mixture. If it's humid (which it is in India most of the time) it will become runny and stop being effective. I personally like the method of using sugar as a soft wax with strips. You can wash the strips and reuse them too.
I've tried it several times, with different consistencies, it looked exactly like the tutorials, I even used baby powder on the skin beforehand, and it still hurt like hell, both the pushing it upwards into the hair (it wasn't hot/warm, it felt like it was yanking on every strand) and the ripping off were extremely painful, and after a couple strips my skin would warm it up too much so it would just stick and hurt more and I'd use napkins as wax strips at that point and still pain.
Same! Idk why but putting it on hurts worse than pulling it off, it's painful:/ and "using the same ball" never worked cause it heats up too fast. I started using wax and it's about the same but with no pain putting it on, so I use that now lol, sugaring is just too messy and painful for me.
Im gonna start trying sugar waxing. Im gonna diy it and hopefully it works because I just feel like most things I try go wrong because im stupid or something idk
I'm so excited next month in April I get to meet with a dermatologist that is willing to try something experimental with me I've been trying so desperately to get rid of my hair at first I was okay with the idea of just making it more manageable but having to go through the process for long-term hair reduction and knowing how it works it really makes me depressed especially how expensive it is and definitely because most of them lying through there advertisements and I don't like that they do it to get people through the doors at their clinics just a Sit Them Down and tell them okay it's not permanent hair removal it's reduction and it doesn't Target your route it targets the pigment in your hair which could also Target your skin which is why there's such a thing as good candidates for having light skin and dark hair also it's not guaranteed I'm of course referring to laser in IPL for electrolysis love that just human error and because the hairs in the way it's really hard to get to the actual route that's why you need several sessions but what I figured to try doesn't deal with all of that is using old school techniques with some newer technology that's not made for hair removal but that's not what it's actually doing it just helping the process so everything's already there I just need help putting it together mostly to make the medicine proportion
Tbh I'm impressed how calm people are while waxing- I never waxed my legs or anything and I'm terrified of the pain I'd have to endure if I would try it-

Heat sugar with lemon on a stove for a couple minutes on not too hot heat then let it cool down before using it. My mom, aunts, grandma and so only us sugaring
Ive actually used her recipe/methods. This does NOT need to be hot to use so no worries burning yourself. Remember, hot sugar can be more dangerous than hot cooking oil! This stuff works so well and my thin blonde leg hair didnt grow back completely for almost 2 months.

Spatulas are flatter than butter knives.
Butterknives aren’t flimsy at all (unless it’s plastic) .. this spatula being used is just a little bit; that’s one way to tell the difference.

Can I ask what herbal extracts?
I did laser hair removal and I'm never going back, just never worrying about hair ever again is.... the best ☺️ won't regret a bit hahah
I was about to comment this lol. The best decision I've ever made.
I tried once (failed) and the amount of time it took me to wash the pan afterward was enough to never try it again 😪
Hey. Just heat the pan up with some water or just leave water in it for some time. The sugar will melt itself.
You can leave the pan full of water for like at least 2 hours so the sugar is not sticky anymore, and easy to come off
You can just actually soak the pan UNLESS its burnt

Important tip: exfoliate before to prevent ingrown hairs, apply pressure immediately after flicking and it will reduce pain, aloe Vera is nice after you’re done if you have some remaining stinging or irritation
What is this ??? product name please...
@@choudharysaba1775 it’s sugar wax. You can buy it but most people make it themselves. It’s sugar, water, and lemon.
I really like the fact that this woman shows powder being used before the waxing!
That’s an important point!
I wish you would have credited the original creator. Abetweene makes great content on sugaring. Wish I could link her.
There doesn't have to be constant crediting. He's not claiming this content as his own. He's simply reviewing it. Theres not need to give credit. People can search sugar waxing if they want. Credit isn't always needed. He has no obligation to bring traffic to her channel just bc hes reviewing her video. Also hes a dr so he has to be careful. If he sends people to her channel and she post something wrong or harmful then hes got a moral issue going on bc hes a professional that sent people there. His recommendations hold more weight than the average persons bc he is a dr and people will give more weight to his recommendations. He has a professional responsibility for what he post. He shouldn't give credit to random people on social media and send people to those channels bc when he does that his followers will assume anything that person post is correct info. Her getting credit for a video he reviewed isn't more important than that. Posting someone's page info is treated the same as recommending that page. He shouldn't be recommending people. Drs live by different ethical guidelines than the rest of us. Very strict guidelines. Don't expect him to start recommending channels and risking his reputation simply bc he reviewed info someone posted. You'll be disappointed. Hes not going risk his followers getting bad info off some influencer due to something he's posted bc it makes u feel better. If she's that great she doesn't need credit from him.
thanks hun!
💯👊😎🏴☠️
@@lolasmom5816he didn't add anything to the video, he just stood there nodding. That is not fair use and the original creator @abetweene should make a copyright claim. At least he should've credited her.
Please give credit to the original creator in the video or a description. Thankfully people in the comments recognize this content, but it shouldn’t be our job to give proper credit
Another reason why I love sugaring is it doesn’t attach to the skin. It’s only attaching to the hair! Every other way attaches to the shin and that’s what causes the most pain
Abetweene is amazing 😻, I love her channel.
I've been tempted to try sugaring for a looong time but imagine making a mess hehe. I might try it this way.
Check her videos! It's abetweene. She goes really in depth about most issues you might have while making and using it.
I was surprised that women in other countries are shaving or waxing their legs when the first time I saw videos on tiktok because in my country women are not doing this, for me having hair on our legs or arms is unique. I like it!
He's so sweet. A real person with no attitude, down to earth despite being so high in education.
He didnt add to this video at all
@@MynameisnotRenold oh yes, he didn't speak but he shows us all this so we can better understand whether we need to take it seriously or not.
@@Naz-Ali he didnt show us anything he just used another person's video
It's abetweenes video
@@MynameisnotRenold ok so don't watch. I love watching it anyway. Good bye.
Try refrigerating the wax and showering with cold water before waxing
My sensitive skin can't handle both waxing and sugar waxing. It makes my skin red and inflamed for 3 days. I have hair with big follicles. Like once u pull the first strip, all u see is thick white dots. I think lazer is my only resort. But I'm too broke for that
We use wax heater to melt it and a thick tissue paper to remove hair in opposite direction
The ancient romans used honey for wax in terms. It's a really old tecnique but it works really well
Him just fading into existence
I used to shave and wax so much as a teenager and now I don’t even have to shave 😂 my hairs are so thin that I don’t ever notice it unless if I stare at it or feel my hairs when I take off my pants. And as I got older, my body hairs stopped bothering me because I only did it for others. I used to lie and say it was for myself.
Its actually called shira , sugaring is the english translation. And shira was invented in ancient iraq . Most iraqis know how to make it at home and jave a designated ugly pan for it (bc the pan or pot becomes unusable for cooking after since its so hard to remove the shira)
YAY thank you doctor. I’ve always considered it
I’m a Sugarist! I do this almost exclusively….. but I also do facials and lashes. Your Body’s Retreat in Hurst Texas!
I finally broke down and got laser hair removal. No matter the method, I always got ingrown hairs from waxing and shaving. Zero regrets.
Go to a professional!
My whole body is hairy, I plan to. I have many insecurities, it’d be nice to be rid of one.
Next time I'm in S Korea am getting this done. It's too expensive in the UK🤭💜🙏💜
I spent a fortune on laser and it has grown back now in my bikini area. Cannot re do as the hair is much lighter now. Won't work so am waxing etc again 😡
Or maybe you could just accept yourself
He was so informative and said a lot of useful information regarding her video.
I burnt my skin off using this I need a step by step tutorial plsssss!!
You have to be super super sure the sugar wax cools down enough for you to use. Obvious I know but it can trick you at times. If it feels warm to touch it's most likely going to leave a burn I find. You should spot test it before applying. Most recipes work
this is the Egyptian waxing 🇪🇬❤
Sugaring is a traditional ancient Egyptian method of hair removal.❤🇪🇬
This technique is safe and 100% natural, using a paste made from lemon🍋, sugar and water.
There are no chemical additives and it can be applied on any body part. It's applied to the skin and removes hair in the direction of the hair growth
It is called by the local name "Halawa". 😊🍬🍯
I agree it removes dead skin but, I’d say that was more so the powder she put on before coming up.
The way i automatically knew this was Abetweene🤣
😉
Sugaring is a viable option for superfluous hair removal! I just had Sugar Mama as a guest on my video podcast~
I would need 5 hoops of that for my legs
These shorts always make my day ♥️
It makes me feel so good when two TH-camrs that I follow approve of each other 😭❤️
Is this Abetweene? I love her videos!
Yup!
I used to love sugaring but it takes too long to make and the temperature in the room has to be right other wise it gets too runny. I have so much hair that I can't reuse my pieces like this lol
‼️‼️DO YOUR LEGS ACTUALLY FEEL SILKY SMOOTH LIKE THEY DO AFTER SHAVING ❓❓❓‼️‼️ I've always wanted to know this but no one has ever answered it. Because what's the point of looking like you have no hair on your legs but it's extremely prickly and feels like sandpaper!! Please answer anyone who knows! Are there any shaving alternatives that actually leave you feeling silky smooth besides laser hair treatment? I absolutely cannot stand to feel prickly at all I literally have been shaving every single day since 7th grade. I cannot stand the feel of prickles
WHY DOES NO ONE ANSWER THIS QUESTION EVER??? Ive been checking back every single day because I want to know so badly but literally I the second I ask this everyone stops replying. So legit that makes me think it just visually removes the hair and doesn't actually make you soft. Otherwise why would this question be ignored on the like literally 20 videos I've asked it on?
@@WhitneyDahlin just try it on a small patch of your skin first
@@WhitneyDahlinHi! I did sugar waxing care by professional. It was my first time and the result is 10/10. After the waxing, my skin is soooo smooth. Will do it again after a month or so.
@@binibini7779 THANK YOU!! I am check back every so often to find out! How long did the smoothness last? I know it's different for everyone but I just don't want to even bother if you get prickly really fast. Because it's not just the appearance of hair that bothers me it's the prickliness that drives me up a wall.
sugaring (in my opinion!) also hurts less if done correctly because you pull the hair in the direction it grows, causing less irritation! make sure to take a warm shower and do a little scrub before btw, i found it helps with the hair coming out easier :)
People in the Middle East and South Asia been doing this for a long time.
@@Jess-737 I'm so glad there was a brave curious soul way back when, because I love me some caramel. Actually, it seems almost sacrilege using it for waxing.... Unless it's waxing itself right across the top of my ice cream.
I love sugaring! It's easy to make and easy to store extra in a jar that's heat safe for next round.
i trust this man with my life even if all he's doing in a video is nod
HELP IDK WHY BUT HIM GLIDING IN IS SO FUNNY TO ME 💀
I’ve always wanted to try sugaring bc I have such issues after shaving (dry skin, razor rash/burn, & I have strawberry legs) but I don’t even know where to begin 🤦🏻♀️
ANOTHER FANTASTIC TIP: in case you chicken out or get in an area, you don’t want it this washes off with a little bit of warm water. No stress, no mess.❤
Yep, I used it about a decade (from 25-35) and no longer need to! My legs are hair free- and I had the scary East European semi-gorilla look, lol😅!
Too bad it doesn't work on my fem- beard and mustache😭. I did electrolysis for years on my lower face and not even weed killer would take out the roots of these things! I console myself knowing every other woman in my group (esp. over 40) is dealing with the same issue.😄 You can overdo it tho. The ones who have removed even the baby fuzz look like plastic Stepford wives🤣.
I guess I removed just enough to not end up joining the circus.
@Cathrine White - Welcome to the club!! Once I hit 40, these lil pricklies on my chin grew in and are driving me insane! 😵
i like to use teaspoons or cutlery knives. the sugar washes of after some soaking if ur not squeemish about the hair
I'm cool with hair. At the end of my life I feel pretty sure I'll be glad I didn't spend months of my life pulling/shaving hair off myself
Saaaame
@@transbiologistthetransesto7956 Unrelated to hair but I'm trans and work in a health field... Yay for trans biologists! It is getting better and we are finally becoming able to more openly work in professional jobs
I love sugaring but I started shaving(with an electronic razor) between every occasional sugaring session because:
1)your hair has to be long to stick to the sugar
2) im scared to burn myself or rip off my skin so I get a sugaring professional (who happens to be my moms friend) to do it
3) when she does it she gets every little hair which takes abt 2 hours for my arm and legs
It doesn’t seem to be getting the full root of the hair, I’m still seeing the root left over
I’m a sugar waxer for life. Used to do regular waxing and would get so red and itchy from it. Sugaring is so much better. I use little cards that came with my orders that are basically just like credit cards like she said
I will never get the appeal of waxing. It's painful.
It depends on your pain threshold. I’ve been living with a chronic pain condition since I was 14 so waxing isn’t really painful to me. And it saves time instead of shaving, especially being 6’1 so long legs = long time to shave lol but of course personal preference.
But waxing is quicker, more efficient for some, can prevent ingrowns in you’re prone to them and you generally wax less often than you shave so there’s the appeal for some 😊
Ikr like just get laser 😭
It's less painful than waxing. Problem is, it doesn't last for long.
@bria •́‿•̀ This is like telling a homeless person to "just buy a house". Why are you intentionally oblivious to the huge price of that?
@@anyamiranda9452 they make home laser treatments now. You no longer have to go to salons and pay thousands. They cost like $200 but imagine how much money you're saving in your lifetime not repeatedly buying razors, creams, wax, etc on a biweekly basis and just using the same device until the hair no longer grows back at all. Also, if you get them from stores like QVC, it's paid in several smaller payments monthly rather than upfront.
AbetweenE is one of my favorite channels she's dope!
Good to know for when I go on testosterone, I don't want facial hair, just the other stuff.
Omg I love abetween!!! She's the first that taught me how to remove all of them hairs through sugaring which I've doing for the past couple years! You better mentioned her Dr. Anthony 😂😭💗
It works: Yes but the real nightmare is that she's doing it the wrong way...😭😭😭
I’m pretty sure people are confused with waxing. Sugaring you do it in the opposite direction.
She's doing it right. Sugaring is not the same as waxing.
Sugaring you go with the grain of the hair not against like with traditional waxing
@@sonicblue2323 why? I thought you always have to go against the grain. Is it what it's made out of or... something else
I love your videos, Dr. Youn.
Hurts
I've experienced that when done this way it leads to more ingrown even though I exfoliate my legs properly. So I always do it with stripes.
She is doing it the wrong way. Put sugar on the direction of the hair growth and remove it the opposite direction of the hair growth
Actually that’s the way you do waxing. It’s the opposite for sugaring.
No she’s doing it right. The technique for sugaring is opposite from standard waxing
@@It5tete OK but why ? Where is the différence ?
@@It5tete never heard of that. From where I am from women do sugaring for centuries ans it is the opposite way ? Can someone explain why it is différent ?
Every esthetician I’ve talked to says the same thing: sugar wax sucks. Soft or hard wax is the way to go, laser removal and electrolysis are more permanent options. In my experience, sugaring just couldn’t keep a grip on my strong as hair so i was mainly getting vellus hairs (that’s those thin “blonde” hairs you can see on your body). Definitely would try if you’re just doing it at home though, use caution and if it works for you, yay 🎉!
But remember that male or female, screw society because you do not have to shave! The more people that dont, the more society accepts it and the more people are liberated in the future
My girl abetweene is amazing. I learned how to make this wax and it’s amazing.
It's almost considered an ancient way used to remove hair in iraq .. it's called aloucha .. and yes it's useful ..the second one is sheera same aloucha but more liqudy texchure and they use piece of cloth with it ..they stretch it on the cloth then stick it on the skin ..removal is like waxing .. the third way is using threads .. also there is shaving .. wax .. and machines that works like the thread method ..
Ok so as an Indian I am no stranger to sugering but it's very difficult to do because sugar is so goddamn sensitive.
If it's too hot that day, it will keep melting too fast. If it's too cold, it would dry up and form lumps in your mixture. If it's humid (which it is in India most of the time) it will become runny and stop being effective.
I personally like the method of using sugar as a soft wax with strips. You can wash the strips and reuse them too.
I've tried it several times, with different consistencies, it looked exactly like the tutorials, I even used baby powder on the skin beforehand, and it still hurt like hell, both the pushing it upwards into the hair (it wasn't hot/warm, it felt like it was yanking on every strand) and the ripping off were extremely painful, and after a couple strips my skin would warm it up too much so it would just stick and hurt more and I'd use napkins as wax strips at that point and still pain.
Same! Idk why but putting it on hurts worse than pulling it off, it's painful:/ and "using the same ball" never worked cause it heats up too fast.
I started using wax and it's about the same but with no pain putting it on, so I use that now lol, sugaring is just too messy and painful for me.
Her voice is so soothing
Im gonna start trying sugar waxing. Im gonna diy it and hopefully it works because I just feel like most things I try go wrong because im stupid or something idk
i love sugaring but if you make your own wax, don’t get too eager to use it before it cools. i’ve learned my lesson…like five times 😅
I'm so excited next month in April I get to meet with a dermatologist that is willing to try something experimental with me I've been trying so desperately to get rid of my hair at first I was okay with the idea of just making it more manageable but having to go through the process for long-term hair reduction and knowing how it works it really makes me depressed especially how expensive it is and definitely because most of them lying through there advertisements and I don't like that they do it to get people through the doors at their clinics just a Sit Them Down and tell them okay it's not permanent hair removal it's reduction and it doesn't Target your route it targets the pigment in your hair which could also Target your skin which is why there's such a thing as good candidates for having light skin and dark hair also it's not guaranteed I'm of course referring to laser in IPL for electrolysis love that just human error and because the hairs in the way it's really hard to get to the actual route that's why you need several sessions but what I figured to try doesn't deal with all of that is using old school techniques with some newer technology that's not made for hair removal but that's not what it's actually doing it just helping the process so everything's already there I just need help putting it together mostly to make the medicine proportion
Highly recommend! But let a professionist do it, it’s way better and doesn’t even cost that much,
Her channel is avetweene she has many videos centered around sugar waxing, vegan meals, and nail care. And etc. I love her videos 😊
I love sugaring!
It also helps with splinters!
Tbh I'm impressed how calm people are while waxing- I never waxed my legs or anything and I'm terrified of the pain I'd have to endure if I would try it-
Lol Fifty Shades of Gray music!!! I love it!
This my girl abetweene!!!!!! 😁🥲🤎🤎🤎👏🏾
Please pull it the right way . Your lovely skin x
Then you can use the used sugar in your chamomile tea to help you relax.
Credit to the creator abetweene , she is the sugaring queen and deserves the shout-out Dr Youn
Wow great transformative content. Good job reacting and changing the original video enough to call it your own content. I love how you said nothing, added a caption, and didn’t credit the creator.
Hi Dr Youn. Please can you do a video about how plastic surgeons in America are cutting breasts off physically healthy but often mentally unwell children.
I need to get it together and try this. Keep putting it off.
yeah don’t worry about crediting the video or anything, just take their content :)
You can dissolve the sugar in tea after and drink it! Winwin
Little hair tea
I have autoimmune. Sugaring, waxing, heck shaving most of the time, just rips my skin.
Heat sugar with lemon on a stove for a couple minutes on not too hot heat then let it cool down before using it. My mom, aunts, grandma and so only us sugaring
Ive actually used her recipe/methods. This does NOT need to be hot to use so no worries burning yourself. Remember, hot sugar can be more dangerous than hot cooking oil! This stuff works so well and my thin blonde leg hair didnt grow back completely for almost 2 months.
