LegWorks Sugaring (The Zahra method of Hair Removal) is a recognised alternative form of hair removal. What is the Zahra Method of Hair Removal?

It is a skill that enables the practitioner to remove the entire hair as well as the hair bulb. When the hair re-grows, it is much finer. After successive treatment, hair growth diminishes until that area of skin is free from hair. No matter how strong or dense you hair is, the
treatment is still very effective. The main product is a sweet paste made entirely of natural ingredients. Only Zahra trained and qualified practitioners can administer the treatment.

👉Sugaring Vs Waxing: 30 July 2025

Hair removal remains one of the most in-demand beauty services, with clients increasingly prioritising comfort, effectiveness, and skin health. Choosing the right method – sugaring, waxing, or both.

What Is Waxing?

Waxing is a long-standing hair removal method that uses resins or wax compounds to adhere to hair and remove it from the root. It comes in two main forms:
• Soft wax: Applied in a thin layer and removed with a fabric or paper strip. Best for large areas like legs, arms, and backs.
• Hard wax: Applied thickly and removed without strips. Ideal for sensitive areas like the bikini line, underarms, and face.

Key ingredients often include resins, beeswax, and additives for texture or scent. Some formulations are also hypoallergenic or designed for specific skin types.

Waxing Process
1. The wax is heated (using a professional wax heater).
2. The wax is then applied in the direction of hair growth. Wax can be applied by spatula, hand or roller depending on the wax type.
3. Once set, the wax is pulled off quickly in the opposite direction of hair growth

What Is Sugaring?
Sugaring is a hair removal method rooted in ancient Middle Eastern traditions. It uses an all-natural paste made from sugar, lemon juice, and water, offering a gentler and more eco-conscious alternative to traditional waxing.

Sugaring Process
1. The paste is applied (usually by hand) at room temperature or slightly warmed.
2. The sugaring paste is gently massaged onto the skin in the direction of hair growth to grip longer hairs. It’s then flicked off in the opposite direction, removing the hair from the root. Because the paste is so gentle, it can also be applied against the hair growth to catch any short or stubborn hairs, ensuring a thorough result.
3. The paste is removed both with and against the direction of hair growth, helping to minimise breakage and irritation while ensuring even the shortest hairs are effectively removed.
Sugaring paste is water-soluble, making clean-up quick and easy, and it’s often suitable for sensitive or allergy-prone skin.

Pros And Cons
