I have been getting Brazilian waxes regularly for over two years now. When my go to girl went on maternity leave, I decided I would finally try sugaring based on people saying it's less painful. I did find it less painful, mostly because there also isn't any heat involved which made it a lot less taxing on the skin itself. I have to say, what amazed me most was the speed. I'm pretty sure my whole Brazilian took about 6 minutes. So at the end of the day, even if you find it equally as painful, I can say for sure you won't find anyone this quick and thorough all at once. My skin wasn't as irritated after either. Wasn't hot or sensitive, hardly even any redness. I'm definitely a convert! Thank you!!
