Body hair is 100% normal to have (or not have!)

Whether you are looking to expand your knowledge on sugaring, ready to book your first sugaring hair removal appointment, or just embracing the hair you want to keep, at Spruce we are happy to support you in your healthiest skin/body no matter the season.

So what is Sugaring? Body Sugaring is an all natural, much less abrasive form of hair removal containing only sugar, lemon and water. With a quick flick of the wrist, the sugar paste and hair are removed in the same direction of growth, making it less irritating, smoother and longer lasting than traditional waxing, with much less discomfort.Clients may feel a slight sting from the root of the hair being removed but there will not be a lasting burning sensation that you may experience when using a resin based wax that also grabs live skin.

Why we love Sugaring!⤵️
  • Less waste
  • Less mess/sticky
  • 100% organic/natural
  • No chemicals or resin
 
 After care is SO important!
a
The first 24 to 48 hours after a hair removal service your skin barrier is a bit more vulnerable, so being gentle on your skin is very important. Make sure to follow the guidance from your licensed esthetician! Below are our product recommendations and after care tips we tell our clients⤵️
 
EXFOLIATE -
Gentle exfoliation is a key component to the aftercare and longevity of your treatment. We love the Supracor Bath Mitt because it is sustainable and can be used dry or wet. Scrub away your dead skin cells, unclog your pores, and stimulate blood circulation for hydrated, softer skin. We recommend using this mitt 1-2 times a week.
 
TREAT -
Lady Suite Exfoliating Ingrown Solution is a great option to treat ingrown hairs and we highly recommend this #spruceapproved product! This acid based exfoliator is a glow-to solution for stubborn ingrowns, razor bumps, and dark spots without the harsh scrubs or retinols. Formulated for your most intimate and sensitive areas with hydrating and immune-boosting prebiotics, it helps remove dead skin cells and clears hair follicles and pores where bumps begin.
 
NOURISH -
Lady Suite Rejuvenating Botanical Oil has been a staple at Spruce since we opened and a bestseller for a reason! This product contains Omega rich oils like organic jojoba and meadowfoam seed which keeps the skin smooth, bright and moisturized to help prevent ingrown hairs, dryness, redness and itchiness that can be caused by hair removal. Applying daily will keep your skin hydrated leaving little room for those pesky ingrown hairs.
