What is sugaring?
Body Sugaring is an all natural, much less abrasive form of hair removal containing only sugar, lemon and water. The treatment is performed using a ball of this paste that looks like thick honey. The paste is applied by hand and molded into the hair follicle. With a quick flick of the wrist, the paste & hair are removed in the same direction of growth making it less irritating, smoother and longer lasting than traditional waxing with much less discomfort. Clients will still feel a slight sting from the root of the hair being removed from the tiny pore but there will not be that lasting burning sensation experienced when using a resins based wax that grabs live skin.

- More profit (sugaring cost less to perform due to supplies & you generally charge 2-20$ more per service, depending on the body part)

SUGARING CERTIFICATION
How do I become certified to provide sugaring services?
You’re in luck! Sweet & True Sugaring Co. provides beginning and advanced sugaring certification courses. Check out our Education Page for a list of approved educators and classes.
Once you become certified we will continue to help you succeed in building a successful sugaring practice by sharing the knowledge and tips that have made us recognized experts. We do so through webinars, videos, newsletters and in-person classes on marketing, business management, service enhancements and knowledge about natural and holistic skincare.
Who can attend sugaring certification classes?
Licensed estheticians and cosmetologists can get certified. Students are welcome upon showing proof that they are enrolled in an esthetics or cosmetology program.
Do you provide starter kits with your certification classes?
Yes! So glad you asked. We offer various levels to help you get started quickly and efficiently. Visit our product website Sweet & True Sugaring page for more information.
What is your class cancellation policy?
When you register, we reserve a spot for you in class and share proprietary info and training videos with you to prepare for class. Due to this, there are NO REFUNDS. Out of consideration for other students who want to register, and our sweet team's time, reschedules must be made 3 weeks prior to your class date in order for you to retain a full credit. If you need to make a change after the three week period, you can apply your tuition amount minus 20% to a future class. Three weeks notice gives sufficient time for another student to register, grow out their hair & find models. Thank you for your understanding.
How long does it take to learn how to sugar?
Everyone learns at different speeds. The most important approach is to practice, practice, practice immediately after your certification class so that you don’t forget all the important tips and tricks. Our instructors are here to provide the support you need after the certification class to ensure your growth and development. If you’re feeling motivated, sugaring techniques can be picked up in as quickly as a few weeks!
