I strongly recommend if this is your first time with any waxing method to try on a tiny area first (say a 1-inch area on your leg) to see how you tolerate it. Apply the wax, about ⅛ inch thick, to the skin. The trick with sugaring is to apply the sugar wax in the direction of hair growth and remove it in the opposite direction. If the wax is too hard, like candy, you will have to start over. NOTE: If the wax is too liquidy, you can put it back into the saucepan and heat it to a higher temperature. It should be stretchy and pliable, similar to the texture of normal wax or chewing gum. Once it is cooled, you can start shaping and “working” your wax. To test the consistency, you can pour a little bit of the mixture into a ¼ cup measuring cup and place it in the freezer. The mixture will have to cool completely before use. Transfer to a heat-resistant glass mason jar. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat, so it stops cooking. You can check this with a candy thermometer. Measure and pour the sugar, apple cider vinegar, and water into a saucepan.Ĭook over medium heat, stirring constantly until it comes to a boil.Ĭontinue cooking until the sugar wax reaches 250 degrees.
