With the Alexandria Professional™ technique, the paste is seeped into the follicles and then removed with a “flicking” action in the natural direction of the hair growth.
Extraction of hair in the early anagen stage, when the hair is generally 1/16” (2mm) in length, promotes quicker refinement that leads to diminishment.

What is Body Sugaring?
Professional Body Sugaring is a safe, gentle and effective solution to hair removal for women, men and children. Body Sugaring offers many diverse benefits. The most important advantage is that the Alexandria technique and sugar paste extracts hair in its natural direction of growth. By doing so, the hair is still in the early growth stage, eliminating breakage, unnecessary discomfort, irritation and ingrown hairs while exfoliating dry skin cells. The result: smooth, beautiful skin, without the discomforts of other hair removal techniques.
SUGAR OR WAX????
Sugar contains pure and natural ingredients - it's safe enough to eat! Wax - contains resins, bees wax and other chemicals, not to mention the potential of other clients skin and blood.
Sugar is more sanitary - hypoallergenic and noncomedogenic; sugar paste is applied with a gloved hand, and a fresh ball of sugar paste is used for each client, meaning no risk of cross contamination. Wax - easily spreads bacteria in the wax pot. A wood spatula is repeatedly dipped in the same wax pot that is used from client to client.
Sugaring is less painful - Sugar will not stick to live skin cells, only the dead ones. Skin cells are removed, so there is less risk of abrasions, tearing and generally less redness than waxing. Wax - adheres to live skin cells and when removed, it will pull the skin, increasing the risk of tearing and redness.
Sugar is not hot - sugar paste is lukewarm when it is applied, so there is no risk of burning the skin. Wax - resin waxes are heated to high temperatures to keep them fluid, so burning is a risk.
Better technique - sugar paste is applied against the natural direction of the hair growth, then removed in the direction of growth...resulting in less painful hair removal and less hair breakage. Wax - applied in the direction of hair growth and removed against the natural of hair growth. This frequently results in breakage of the hair at the follicle, which can lead to ingrown hairs and unsightly bumps.
Sugar is gentle - it can be used to remove the vellus hair that grows on some women's faces - something that cannot be done with waxing.
Easy cleanup - sugar paste dissolves easily in water the there is no sticky residue left on your skin. Wax - requires the use of chemical solvents to remove.
