Hair removal for men and women by sugaring
Using ingredients right from your kitchen

By Lisa Kramer

All women know what a tough time they have with removing unwanted body hair. While some of the solutions currently used (for instance, shaving) is positioned as the 'perfect solution', it may not be so. One, you are using a really sharp object on what is supposed to be really soft skin of a woman. Two, all ingredients are chemicals and none of us really understands what harm they do. Finally, the hair that comes out is rather rough. Removing unwanted hair is something you can easily do at home. You can pluck your eyebrows and buy or make wax to use in other areas such as the legs. Bikini wax and underarm wax are a little tricky so you may want to go to the salon or use a razor on your underarms. You can also purchase a stencil to fix your eyebrows at home. They will help you have a cleaner line. Many women use very thin eyebrows. If you are over 30, try to let them be a little thicker. It is believed that in the majority of women, too thin eyebrows make them look older. (Related: Hair problems)

Women have always removed their body hair (the regions of the body have varied by culture and the point in time) and shaving was not the common method for a long time. In fact, in most parts of Asia, women still do not like to shave and use other methods. The one that I have found to be more effective is sugaring or using sugar to remove unwanted hair. Now your immediate reaction will be, Oh God, how much work is it going to be, how will it work, can I do it, etc.? It is perfectly understandable if this is the way you react because you may have never seen any other way for hair removal. The other thing is that we often get skeptical when something sounds so simple. My family reacted the same way when I started to make breakfast cereals at home (I bought the ingredients at the local health food store and basically mixed them at home - it was not only much cheaper but now we eat all-natural breakfast cereal and we definitely know what we are eating).

If I told you that you could prepare the sugaring paste using ingredients in your kitchen and then remove your hair in practically no time, you will be surprised. But that is the way women in so many countries get rid of their unwanted hair. In fact in most countries of the world razors for women are not even sold. (Related: Leg extension surgery)

Basically you will need sugar, lemon, and tap water. the preparation of the paste takes just about 15-20 minutes. You might need to buy a simple muslin cloth if you do not have it at home but once you buy it you will not need to buy it again for almost an year. I always suggest to first-time users to start with their legs and then try it on their face. In no time you might have legs like Stacy Keibler.

There are a few more reasons why I prefer sugaring over other methods for hair removal. I find that my skin gets less irritation and when my hair does grow back it is much softer. I have also tried to use the sugaring technique for removal of hair above my lips and it works great.
