The description of "sugaring" is actually a description of "sugar waxing". The Middle Eastern technique of Sugaring does not employ the use of spatulas and cotton strips.

Sugaring uses a sugar paste that is the consistency between honey and taffy. It's molded by hand against the natural growth pattern of hair. With a flick of the wrist the entire hair is extracted in the direction of growth (root and all). It's considerably less painful than waxing, it's not hot, doesn't stick to the skin and is significantly more sanitary.

[edit] Tags added July, 2007

I added the unsourced, cleanup, and how-to tags, because... well, the article is unsourced, it contains how-to information, and it needs cleanup (wikification, article improvement). Anchoress 14:20, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] clean up of howto

I tried to begin cleaning up the "howto." But at the same time, I think that the components and process are important to understanding the subject. 76.190.222.115 18:29, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
