Sugaring bikini deep, classic. Video on how to do it right at home for the intimate area. Before and after photos

Sugaring of the bikini area has distinctive features from hair removal in other parts of the body for many reasons that are important to consider (video tutorials will be later in the article).

The procedure itself is hair removal using caramel mass. But unlike the wax method, this method eliminates the likelihood of ingrown hairs, does not damage the skin like a razor, and does not irritate the mucous membrane like a cream. The effect after the procedure in the delicate area of ​​the bikini persists for a long time, and the method itself, if carried out correctly, is relatively painless.

Advantages of the method over analogues

The bikini area shugaring technique has gained popularity due to its advantages:

1. The result lasts for a long time (more than 10 days).
2. The homemade composition contains exclusively natural ingredients that not only remove hair, but also make the skin silky by exfoliating dead skin cells.
3. Slight painful sensations compared to wax hair removal technique.
4. Ease of use and availability for independent use.
5. With continued hair removal in this way, hair becomes thinner, less visible and grows more slowly.
6. After shugaring, with the correct technique of the procedure, the hair does not grow in.

Kinds

Shugaring bikini is classified into types, depending on the area of ​​the treated surface.

Allocate:

1. Classic sugaring bikini - remove hair on the inner side of the thigh and in front, which is visible in underwear.
2. Deep shugaring - leave a certain amount of hair closer to the genitals, treat the lower abdomen, lateral pubic zones, intergluteal fold, inner thighs with caramel mass.
3. Sugaring brazilian bikini - implies complete hair removal in the intimate area.

Features of technology

1. The best result is achieved with the manual shugaring technique, because it is easier to handle all body curves and folds of skin with your hands, although the bandage technique can also be used.
2. It is important to experimentally select the optimal thickness of the caramel layer. It should not be quite thin and not too thick. A thin layer will not grip the hairs well and will tear, a thick layer will be more difficult to remove, and the pain will increase.
3. Without pretreating the skin with antiseptics, they do not start the procedure, since there is a high risk of introducing an infection that will cause inflammation, irritation, and the appearance of purulent acne.
4. Unlike the wax method, caramel paste is applied against hair growth, but removed, on the contrary, according to growth. It is because of this that, after shugaring, it is so rare to deal with ingrown hairs.
5. Hair length should be neither too long nor too short: 4 to 8 mm. If the length is shorter, the procedure should be postponed for now, if it is longer, it is recommended to trim the hairs.
6. The paste is applied not to the entire surface to be treated, but to small areas, so it is more convenient to work.
7. It is not recommended to pass the paste over one area more than three times, as it is possible to injure the skin. If there are only a few hairs left, tweezers should be used.
8. When performing the procedure yourself, you will need a mirror.
9. The paste is not left on the skin for a long time. Citric acid can cause irritation, flaking, and inflammation.
10. After the procedure, you must carefully follow the principles of hygiene, since the first few days, bacteria can easily penetrate the skin through microdamages.

Anesthesia

Bikini sugaring is not so painful that pain relievers are mandatory. In addition, the painfulness of the procedure largely depends on the actions of the master.

The more precise and sharper his movements are, the less pain the client experiences. However, if the pain threshold is low, the skin is dense or the hair is too thick, it is worth using special drugs.

Anesthesia can be performed by external and internal methods. Local anesthesia is performed with lidocaine or anesthetic ointment, cooling gels.

The drug should be applied one hour before the procedure under the film. The effect lasts about 40-50 minutes. This time will be enough for the master to carry out the procedure.

They also take painkillers in non-steroidal or combined pills, for example, Diclofenac, Analgin, Tempalgin, Pentalgin. From ointments use drugs Emla, Anestol. For one procedure, you will need 1 tube of ointment.

You may be allergic to pain relievers. In addition, they have contraindications, which should be consulted before use.

Training

Preparation for the procedure begins a few days before the event:

1. Shugaring is planned by the time the hair length reaches at least 2 mm - for repeated depilation. If the event is held for the first time, then you need to grow hairs about 7-8 mm long.
2. To avoid painful hair removal, you must first scrub the area of ​​future depilation. As a result, the top layer of the skin will soften, the hairs will be pulled out with less effort, which means there will be less pain. This is done 2 days before the event.
3. Before the procedure, within a week, experts do not recommend sunbathing both on the beach and in the solarium - tanning provokes irritation after depilation. Also during this period, it is not recommended to use cosmetics containing alcohol to care for the treated area.
4. Before the procedure at home, you need to take a hot bath: the skin pores will expand, and hair removal will be carried out faster and more efficiently.

Shugaring techniques

Manual technique

This is a classic working technique and involves using only your fingers when applying and tearing the mixture. Suitable when using any kind of caramel paste.

The dense composition must be slightly warmed up in a microwave oven before application. When working with medium-density pasta, it is enough to separate a small piece of the mixture (the size of a chestnut) and knead it with your fingers until it acquires an opaque golden color.The properties of the paste will also change: it will become more sticky.

The paste is stretched with your fingers against the growth of the hair, pressing the caramel to the skin. After a few seconds, the mass will stick to the hairs, harden a little, and then it is torn off the skin with sharp jerky movements, not at once the entire area, but in small parts, without breaking the caramel ribbon.

Bandage technique

The bandage technique is more like waxing. This technique requires a soft caramel paste. It must be heated to 36-38 degrees and applied to the treated area with a thin layer - it is convenient to do this using roller cassettes or a spatula.

Then a strip of fabric is pressed against the caramel. Having given the composition to grab (no longer than 10-15 seconds), they are torn off in one motion. This technique is recommended for more experienced people, it is not suitable for beginners.

Advantages of bandage technology:

1. Helps to capture finer hairs.
2. The process is faster.
3. It is more convenient to remove the composition from hard-to-reach places, where it is difficult to find a comfortable hand position for manual removal of the paste.

Procedure progress

In the salon, the master carries out the procedure in the following order:

1. The skin is treated with an antiseptic.
2. Sprinkle with talcum powder to remove any beads of sweat.
3. Then the specialist applies a heated professional paste against hair growth to the treated area.
4. Waits for a few seconds and tears off the hardened tape with a sharp motion.
5. After treatment, it cleans the skin from the remnants of the caramel mixture and applies a moisturizer.

Experts advise to test shugaring for the first time in a salon in order to visually get acquainted with the technique of the procedure, remember the movements of the master.

What is needed for the procedure at home

For the shugaring procedure, first of all, sugar paste is required. You can purchase a ready-made composition or make it yourself. A dense paste is most suitable for the bikini area. It will be easier for beginners to cope with it and perform the procedure efficiently. But you can also use formulations of medium density. However, it will take some experience to work with them.

In addition, it is recommended to prepare an anesthetic (if you decide to use it), a shugaring spatula (also optional), an antiseptic, talcum powder, an anti-inflammatory cream, for example, with panthenol.

How to make sugar paste

If you prepare a paste for shugaring at home, then the procedure will be quite inexpensive, because available products are used for cooking - lemon juice, sugar. In addition, homemade pasta will definitely not contain any preservatives, unnatural ingredients or herbal ingredients that can cause allergies or irritation.

Recipes:

1. To prepare a paste for several procedures at once, you should use the following recipe. Take 1 kg of granulated sugar (refined sugar can be used if desired), pour it into a metal pan or bowl, add 8 tbsp. water and 7 tbsp. lemon juice. Place on the stove over medium heat. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved, within 2-3 minutes. Then the heat is reduced to a minimum and, covering the pan with a lid, cook for about another 10 minutes. The mixture should be checked periodically to avoid overcooking. They check it like this: drop a drop of caramel into water, if it does not dissolve in water and keeps its shape, then the paste is ready. The finished paste should be golden brown. It is important to immediately pour the mixture into another dish, otherwise it will reach for a couple of minutes in a hot saucepan and can be overcooked. The finished composition is stored in the refrigerator, and slightly warmed up in the microwave before use.
2. For a single use, you will need 10 tbsp. Sahara. Mix sugar with 2 tbsp. water and squeeze the juice of 1/3 lemon.Prepare in the same way as in the previous recipe.

It is important to "catch" the moment when the pasta is ready, because the undercooked paste will not be sufficiently elastic and liquid, which will not allow using it for hair removal, and the digested composition, on the contrary, will lose elasticity and will not adhere well to the hair.

It is recommended to try the recipe with a small amount of ingredients, especially the first time. Only when it is clear how to determine the readiness of the mixture can the composition be prepared in large portions.

Ready-to-use sugaring paste

Not everyone can cook pasta on their own. And some people prefer to use ready-made formulations, because you can choose the desired paste consistency. It is recommended to familiarize yourself with the composition of the product before purchasing. It should not contain any letters "E", dyes, flavors.

From additional ingredients, the paste may include honey, essential oils, plant extracts. Ready-made pasta is produced both in small jars, for example, 200, 400 g, and in large packages of 1.5-3 kg. But for home use, a small package weighing about 1 kg will be enough. This is taking into account the treatment of all problem areas.

The paste is consumed sparingly and lasts for a long time. One piece of paste is used several times during the procedure. For example, you can treat an arm or leg with one piece of pasta.

Experts recommend purchasing paste from these manufacturers:

• Gloria;
• Cannaan;
• Dolce Vita;
• Riviere Sucre.

Carrying out the procedure at home

Sequence:

1. The treatment area must be wiped with a disinfectant before starting the procedure.
2. Then it should be sprinkled with talcum powder.
3. At the same time, the skin must be absolutely dry.
4. It is recommended to start processing from the pubic area.
5. Take a comfortable position. For example, the procedure can be performed while standing or in a frog pose.
6. The paste is rolled out against hair growth, and removed according to growth.
7. After application, you should wait a few seconds, but not for long. From prolonged contact with the skin, the paste heats up and becomes more liquid.
8. When tearing off the paste, pull the skin with the other hand to increase the effectiveness of the treatment.
9. If a manual technique is used, then the skin is treated in small areas.
10. The paste is applied to the same area no more than 3 times.

Deep bikini sugaring care

The following activities are recommended:

1. After shugaring, slight redness may appear, which has nothing to do with inflammation, but is a physiological reaction of the body. Redness goes away on its own within a few hours. The inflammatory process, if it nevertheless manifests itself, is treated with Chlorhexidine or another agent with antibacterial properties, for example, hydrogen peroxide, Solcoseryl. You can wipe your skin with chamomile tincture.
2. After shugaring, it is not recommended to wet the treated area on the first day, and it should be protected from mechanical stress for 4-5 days. For example, do not scrub the area with a washcloth or apply a scrub. This injures the skin, and pathogenic microbes can penetrate the skin through microdamages.
3. Experts advise against visiting baths, saunas, swimming pools for 2-3 days.
4. Tanning salons and beaches should be avoided.
5. In the first few days, you need to wear cotton underwear so as not to provoke skin irritation.

Complications

Despite all the precautions, following the instructions and recommendations after shugaring, there may still be complications, although they are very rare.

Among them:

1. Ingrown hair... Such a complication appears after shugaring if the technique of the procedure is not followed, especially when the direction of hair removal is confused - it must be removed according to growth. Also, a hereditary predisposition is a risk factor. To avoid ingrown hairs, it is necessary to check the correctness of the procedure.In 3-4 days after the procedure, ingrown hairs appear due to the fact that they have not been removed from the root. If the hairs are thin and delicate, then you need to use a scrub more often.
2. Herpes. For some, shugaring causes herpetic eruptions, because after the procedure, the local immunity of the skin decreases, which provokes a rash.
3. Acne... Appear if the ducts of the sebaceous glands are overgrown with skin. May appear in a single amount or as a rash.
4. Abrasions and hematomas. The reason for their appearance lies in non-observance of the procedure technique - insufficient skin tension while removing the caramel paste.

How often should bikini shugaring be done

After 1-2 shugaring procedures, the hair will grow back faster than after subsequent procedures. On average, the process will take 10-14 days, after which the procedure will need to be repeated. But later the hair will become thinner and thinner, and the procedure can be carried out after about 3 weeks or even once a month.

Contraindications

Despite all the advantages of shugaring, it is contraindicated for:

• varicose veins;
• diabetes mellitus (sugar is absorbed through the skin into the blood);
• allergies to the components of the mixture;
• skin diseases;
• damage to the skin;
• oncology;
• hanging moles in the treatment area;
• candidiasis;
• pregnancy.

Is it possible to spend during critical days

The period of menstruation is not a contraindication for shugaring. The only thing that needs to be done is to tell the master about it and use a tampon. Pain threshold may be unstable during menstruation. Usually at the very beginning of menstruation, it decreases, and towards the end of the critical days it rises. However, this must be verified empirically.

Sugaring during pregnancy

Professionals do not recommend sugar hair removal during pregnancy, because pain during the procedure can provoke an increase in uterine tone and miscarriage.

Experts allow the procedure to be carried out only in some cases:

1. If complications are not diagnosed during pregnancy, in particular, increased tone.
2. If the hair in the bikini area is fine and delicate, thanks to previous shugaring procedures.
3. If the master is experienced and able to carry out the procedure as accurately as possible.

You don't have to go to the salon to sugaring your bikini area. The procedure can be performed at home, even by preparing the composition yourself. It is the convenience and accessibility of the procedure that made it so popular among women.
