I love this recipe which I have used for a long while. Sugaring is a tried and true method of simple hair removal.

Just as you may purchase hair removal wax, you can make your own hair removal product that only require sugar, lemon juice and water!

For centuries, women have relied on this and similar methods.

Sugaring is safe to use and is great for body and face.

All hair textures seem to work well with this recipe.

For best results, allow hair to be longer than a stubble...this will allow hair to be "grabbed" in the sugar.

1 cup sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup water

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Bring down to a simmer once you have brought this to a boil. Adjust temperature as needed and continue stirring until mixture is a rich brown or amber color.

Pour into freezer quality plactic containers or mason jars (run jar under hot tap water and dry before using to avoid cracking glass)

Place lid on jar after product has cooled to room temperature or warm enough to handle.

Any questions?
Just send a message here or to my page.

Thank you!!

  • great video!! how long did it take for your hair to grow back??

  • @GurlyScreech13 Oh, I think it takes about 6-8 weeks or so...it seems to go back in fine and not prickly, so it could be grown in sooner, but, I just can't see it or feel it much. That's a great question! thanks!

  • this is a method used today and a loong time ago by Arab women, its more effective then the wax with stips..it removes hair from roots!! and it makes skin shiny and glowing

  • @markee871 Thank you for watching!

    You're absolutely correct, it's the best, most effective method! I love it.♥

  • Hello there totogirl0, thanks for watching my video! I've only really sugared, however, I do feel sugaring is far better than the waxing because of the chemicals, the dangers and the costs...but, the process of removing hair is just about the same process, but, the sugar, in my opinion is far safer and eco-friendly. I would try sugaring...the only thing you have to loose is hair. :0) LOL :0)

    xoxo Thanks so much for stopping by, tell me what you think!! :0) take care, Nina

  • Hey Nina!

    I heard that sugaring works and lasts longer than waxing...is that true or is it practically the same thing?

    Peace xoxo

  • is it safe for the bikini area?

  • if you don't use it all the first time...can you use it again somehow after it has cooled down to room temperature? or will it get too hard and you have to reheat it?

  • hi itsCHRISTINAA02, thanks for watching my video, yes, you can use either brown, white (grandulated) or organic sugar, but, I usually use white grandulated sugar because it's easy to use and cheaper. :0) tell me how it works out 4 you! ;0) take care :0) Nina

  • Hi there akcidulb, thank you for watching my video!! You are very welcome!! :0) take care! :0) Nina
