i've been waxing since i was 12 and i'm 21 now. One thing my grandmas and aunts used to do is after done waxing (immediately after) is that they massage the waxed area with olive oil (make sure it's 100%. the olive oil we use we also make from scratch) . don't go under the sun with it on your skin and don't wear a clothes so the olive oil won't stain them. i prefer to wash it away after 10-15 minutes. it makes the hair grow back less darker/thicker and way slowweerr!!! if you wanna try it then please first try it on a small area to see if you're not gonna have any reaction or something and to make sure it's gonna work for you as well. 💗

I just tried this out! Here are my thoughts:
This is absolutely incredible! I have struggled for so long with body hair removal, especially around the bikini area. Shaving causes me insane ingrown hairs and irritation, while store-bought waxing strips never hold on to my hair or break it off rather than pulling it out at the root, leaving behind a sticky waxy residue that doesn’t come off. I’ve been wanting to try sugaring for a while but was too scared from those past negative hair removal results. Today I finally tried this out and I am SO IMPRESSED. The sugar seriously grabs onto hair and holds on tight. I sugared my whole bikini area and I am SO HAPPY with the results. It did hurt a lot, to be honest, but not worse than any other type of waxing. Any waxy residue comes off easily with water. I also really recommend using some kind of powder to absorb moisture. My skin is definitely red and irritated (this is normal of course) but it’s also really smooth and the pain has subsided. There are a few stray hairs that the wax didn’t grab but those can be easily removed with tweezers. I am just so so happy that I have finally found a method of hair removal that works for me. I’m going to try my underarms and legs once the hair is long enough. Maybe I can finally say goodbye to my razor! Literally cannot thank you enough for this tutorial!!!!

This is the most zero waste waxing I’ve seen and I’m here for it

[wisdomhappy]

I’ve had been getting Sugared it for six years professionally.

That I’ve been buying it off line with stripes.

I been doing it myself for 2 years.

I watch many video on how to make it, that just were not the right one.

This is the best one so far!

Idk if you're gonna read this comment, but I just wanted to thank you for this video. You cleared up literally every doubt that anyone could have haha. I have pcos which led to so much extra body hair and your video has been super helpful.
Thanks a lot!

[sweetener]

I’m literally so scared to use this because I’m scared one of my parents will walk down stairs and ask me what I’m doing

[spoem]

me: has 3 papers due tomorrow
also me: hmm maybe I should try diy at home sugaring

[kkadaeda]

So, after years of shaving and plucking, I finally tried waxing yesterday. Apparently, it didn't feel as painful as I imagined! Oh and no longer neck pain yaaay!

Thank you so much for your helpful tutorial! ❤❤❤

Thank you! You have taught me something I can use for the rest of my life. I'm going to share this with my sisters.

Being the procrastinator that I am, I found your video while working on an assignment around 11pm. It's now 2am and my legs and arms are hairless. I thought my arms would be easier to do and I was wrong. I was also learning the direction that my hair grows as I was going along.

I need to work on my technique, a couple times I let go as I was pulling and the sugar went flying, it landed on the counter, mirror, toilet tank, floor, wall, & tub. The shower curtain was spared this time. Luckily I had more than enough.

I saw you have a video on pedicures, but that's another video for another time I feel like procrastinating.

This is so exhausting 😩😩 I’m done being a human female I want to be a panda bear

[Keirosqeen]

After trying this wax, it took me more than a month for them hair to grow back. Much better than shaving, wax paper strips and so on.

[alonaonyoutube]

I want to say after literal YEARS, I got this recipe to work for me today! Thank you!

[mckennareed]

[chloetsang]

came back to this video after like a year and you’re still replying to comments and helping people, so helpful and kind !!

[renakobi]

Soooo
I tried this and when I put the recipe on water, it didn't seem to blend in so I waited for 15 mins with no change at all then my sister comes in and notices a weird smell
Turns out I was using salt the entire time

[blackeyedsusan]

I love about this that in addition to being so effective (brava for the super educational video), everything you have shown is biodegradable and sustainable, which is something we should all be thinking of! Thank you, m'am!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️

[sharayalee]

Thank you for making this this fit seem so simple and taking the intimidation out of sugaring… I’ve been wanting to try but pre-made kits are so expensive and I was shocked to learn it’s only a couple ingredients that I always have on hand. Will definitely be trying this soon!
