Did you know that at any given time, your body hair is in different stages of growth? This is why one sugaring session isn’t enough to remove every hair from the root—but staying consistent will help you achieve longer-lasting smoothness!
Let’s break it down:
🌀 1. Anagen (Active Growth Phase) – The Best Time for Sugaring!
✅ Hair is attached to the follicle’s blood supply, making it the ideal time for sugaring.
✅ When removed, the entire root comes out, leading to slower, finer regrowth over time.
✅ About 20-30% of your hair is in this phase at any moment.
✅ Consistently sugaring during this phase helps reduce overall hair growth in the long run!
🍂 2. Catagen (Transition Phase) – The Hair is Detaching.
🔸 The hair stops growing and begins to separate from the root.
🔸 Since it’s no longer actively growing, sugaring may remove it, but not always from the root.
🔸 This phase only lasts about 2-3 weeks, so not much hair is in this stage at once.
🍃 3. Telogen (Resting & Shedding Phase) – Hair is Ready to Fall Out.
❌ The hair has fully detached from the root and is just sitting under the skin.
❌ New hair is already forming beneath the old one, which will soon shed naturally.
❌ Sugaring at this stage only removes what’s already loose, but the new hair beneath will soon emerge.
✨ Why Is It Important to Sugar Regularly?
1️⃣ Catches More Hair in the Anagen Phase – Since only 20-30% of your hair is in this stage at a time, regular sugaring (every 4-6 weeks) ensures more hair is removed directly from the follicle, leading to finer regrowth.
2️⃣ Prevents Shaving Disruptions – Shaving cuts hair at the surface, throwing off the natural cycle and leading to coarse, uneven regrowth. Regular sugaring keeps your hair cycles synced and under control!
3️⃣ Weakens Hair Follicles Over Time – The more you sugar, the weaker the follicle becomes, making regrowth softer, finer, and eventually less frequent.
4️⃣ Exfoliates & Prevents Ingrown Hairs – Sugaring removes dead skin cells, keeping pores clear and reducing the risk of ingrown hairs or irritation.
5️⃣ Smooth, Hair-Free Skin for Longer – Over time, consistent sugaring can lead to permanent hair reduction in some areas, meaning you’ll need sessions less often!
💡 Pro Tip: The best way to get the most out of your sugaring is to stick to a routine and avoid shaving in between appointments.
