Four different types of sugar wax
The recipe doesn’t change, the way it’s cooked changes.
As water is boiled away, the sugar content increases.
The more concentrated, the stickier it is.
Strip sugar will have the MOST water content.

Sugar too sticky (1:29)
Sugar too sticky and can’t manipulate it..can’t communicate at.

Stages of Sugar/Types of Waxes (1:43)
*Strip Sugar*

*Firm Sugar* (1:56)

YOURE BASICALLY OUR SUGAR WAX GODDESS 🤩🤩

[rsncrllvea]

Are you kidding me I just thought about making sugar wax

[monikatripathi]

Girl your magical recipe worked for me, I've been waxing my whole body from last 4 months ever since I watched your sugaring recipe video, you've changed the whole hair removing game for me, thanks a lot ❤️

[emdances]

Your editing is such a great aesthetic AHHHH 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[TheodoreBakes]

Omg you really look like Jordyn Woods!

I have been wanting to try this for a few years. Now I can’t go to a sugaring studio anymore because I moved to the middle of nowhere. Your videos are going to literally save me. And after watching them I’m at the point that I think I can actually make it through the trial and error until it works.

[juliaswiecicka]

You are our Lady Saviour! I've struggled a few times, but now that I nailed it one time I know it's really worth it! My legs are smooth, everything is cheap and zero waste which is all I ever wanted. Thank you for doing the best job on YouTube! ❤️

-For quick reference
Thread stage- 230°-233°F (110°-112°C)
Soft-ball stage- 234°-240°F (112°-115°C)
Firm-ball stage- 244°-248°F (118°-120°C)
Hard-ball stage- 250°-266°F (121°-130°C)
! Anything higher and you begin to get into the "crack" stage and it'll be too hard to use for sugar waxing. !
I have a candy thermometer and I got these temps from it.

[cherryhayden]

I did this for the first time about a week ago, accidentally made it too hard for what I wanted, but it still worked, second time I made it too hard, couldn't even use it. Third attempt, was perfect, and I had decided to time it as well so I learned that about 16 minutes(in between 6-7, on a stove that ranges from 1-9) is perfect for my desired consistency(which is a thinner strip wax, if anyone is curious). My fourth attempt, I decided to try and microwave a batch, and after about 16 minutes it had just started getting to almost be a strip wax, and it melted through the container, warning for anyone thinking of using plastic: even if it's microwave safe it might melt, best to use glass. My last attempt, I decided to stick to 16 minutes on the stove, since it was quicker and also I melted the only container that was microwave safe, and a proper size. xD

Long story short: Thank you for the videos! They are very helpful! ^.^

Starting at the first "How To- Sugar waxing" playlist to check for some guidance!
Abit disappointed as I thought this would be the holy grail to my journey of sugar wax! I have watched this playlist 10 times (last I was counting) thinking I was ready to tackle this and have had a horrible time trying to successfully wax.
Made 5 batches, first two were duds. (Having culinary exp, I thought it was be easier but followed instructions to a "T" after those attempts)
I got ONE long good strip the first time, BEAUTIFUL! I was determined to get both legs, soft and smooth as that one good stride.
Sadly, ever attempt after has been awful. My wax is the correct consistency but after one pull, it's pure mush.
Maybe too wet? Patted dry and added tiny bits of cornstarch. No.
Maybe too humid? TWO fans in direct contact to my legs? No.
After one pull with firm, just-abit-sticky wax it doesn't work. I can roll it in a ball, add more cool, hard wax or do spreads with marble sized pieces- nothing. Abit upset as it seems I've tried everything to work with the already fine wax without good results. Happy it worked for others and would love feedback! After making a full bag's worth of sugar into wax and having it come out fine but not work on my skin, I'm sad to say I need to do more research for something that will work x3

i’ve been sugaring for over a month now thanks to you and wowwww girl it changed the game 😫 thank you for these videos!!

Buying a candy thermometer is the best thing you can do for yourself! they're not expensive and it takes away all the time/color guessing!!

[raeleneosma]

Omg, so I’ve been using your exact recipe for a couple of years now with no problem, then all of a sudden, the sugar wasn’t getting to the right color at the temperature I wanted. I thought it was my location, which didn’t make sense because I only moved once within the same building. I tried three more times, then I was like... “Maybe it was the lemon juice...”

So I switched lemon juices, and Lo and behold, my sugar finally came to the right color at the right temperature.

TLDR, make sure you have good lemon

[tominutiae]

You are so organized and THOROUGH girl I love u. Can't wait for your series! So. so. helpful.
