I can't answer questions as I have never done it before :laughing: Which is why I asked the question!!!

It is an alternative to waxing and I want to know if there is a significant difference in the pain.

I'm assuming you are referring to the traditional middle eastern method of hair removal made using lemon juice and sugar boiled up into a waxy syrup. Applied in the same way as normal shop bought hair removal wax.

Now sadly that is a secret passed down from generation to generation of ladies.

and I wasn't "wog" enough to share the secret with :mad:

damn inlaws!

Apparently it works a treat and even men are ceremonially waxed for their weddings :eek::D:p

I have and found it to be just as bad as waxing. I have read that sugaring isn't as painful. I can't wax as I bleed and bruise, so I was hoping this wasn't so bad.

seems pretty spot on.

Sorry Chelle described as painful, :thumbsdown:

I have heard that IPS is the least amount of pain for hair removal (not IPL)

What's IPS and IPL :confused:

I thought it would probably still be painful but have read that it isn't quite as painful as waxing.

IPS and IPL are the "permenant" hair removal alternatives (not sure if these are laser or not)

I have heard IPL stings and makes your skin go red, but IPS is relatively pain free.

You'd need to go to a specialty beautician or clinic for that.
