Male shugaring is the same natural procedure as female one. It is carried out not only for aesthetic reasons, but also for hygienic purposes, since the abundant vegetation in the groin area contributes to irritation on the skin. The relevance of depilation with the onset of hot time only increases, since at high temperatures in the intimate zone, a "greenhouse effect" is often created, this causes the multiplication of fungi and pathogenic bacteria.

Most of men carry out depilation of intimate areas. for hygienic purposes. The fact is that men's sweat has a more pronounced odor, therefore, in the presence of vegetation, an unpleasant odor appears in the groin area by the end of the day. Male shugaring can effectively solve this problem for several weeks.

Shugaring has spread among men whose work is related to the demonstration of the body. These are models, actors and athletes. Removing hairs once every few weeks is much easier than shaving them every 3-4 days.

Many men carry out epilation of the intimate area exclusively for your own comfort. Many of them consider excess hair on their bodies unaesthetic. In addition, some resort to the procedure at the request of their beloved women.

The advantages of male shugaring are beyond doubt:

There are general rules for depilation of hair on the male body using shugaring, following which makes the manipulations as painless as possible and increases their effectiveness.

1. The composition should be applied against the direction of hair growth, and removed, on the contrary, along the line of hair growth.
2. During the procedure, the treated area of ​​the skin must be tightened, this contributes to the maximum capture of the hairs.
3. To hold the sugar composition and the skin together, before the epilation procedure, the dermis should be degreased and well sprinkled with talcum powder.

Allocate several types of shugaring of the intimate area.

• Deep. With deep shugaring of the male intimate zone, all hairs growing on the inner surface of the thigh, as well as in the groin area, are removed.
• Normal. Regular shugaring involves removing hair exactly along the line of the trunks, that is, in the place where vegetation can peep out from under the underwear.
• Brazilian. This type of hair removal involves removing hair from the penis, scrotum, buttocks and near the anus. To provide effective access to the most difficult-to-reach areas, the man must be in the knee-elbow position. As a rule, these manipulations are very painful, therefore, to alleviate the condition half an hour before starting work, you can use pain relievers, for example, "Ibuprofen" or "Tempalgin". In addition, anesthetic ointment should be applied to the skin 40-60 minutes before the procedure.

In order to prepare for the shugaring procedure, it is necessary to grow hairs to the required length, the optimal length is 5-7 mm. The minimum length for shugaring is 3 mm, the maximum is 8 mm. If the vegetation is longer, then when applying the sugar composition, the hairs will pull strongly, and this significantly increases the intensity of painful sensations. In addition, long hairs increase the duration of the procedure, since the master has to change the paste more often.

The day before the procedure, you should exclude the use of intimate deodorants and fatty creams. Considering that representatives of the stronger sex sweat more often and more profusely, it is advisable to take a shower right before going to the salon. All areas that will be involved during manipulations should be especially carefully processed. Taking a shower, you can additionally use coffee, salt, tea or any other scrub - this way you can soften the skin and thereby facilitate the process of further hair removal.

Any local anesthetic can be used for pain relief; they can be in the form of a paste, spray, cream or gel.... The composition must contain lidocaine, this component is able to "turn off" the sensitivity of pain receptors for some time. According to user reviews the most effective are EMLA cream, Lidocaine spray, and Light Dep and Deep Numb creams.

Sugar paste can be applied in several ways.

• Manual technique. In this case, the composition is applied to a small area of ​​the skin, and then with one sharp movement of the hand it is torn off along with the regrown bristles. This method is optimal for the treatment of hard-to-reach areas with a dense cover.
• Bandage technique. The paste is spread with a spatula evenly over the treated area, and after the allotted time it is removed with special strips.
• Spatula technique. The composition is also applied with a spatula and removed with it. The method is optimal for relatively flat large areas of the body.

Depending on the density, certain types of paste are distinguished.

• Solid... Can be used on all areas (legs, bikini area, armpits, back or chest). Removes hard, dark bristles. Most often it is used during the very first procedure, it is applied using a manual technique.
• Average... It is used for epilation of vegetation on all parts of the body during repeated treatments, when the bristles have already become softer and thinner. It is better to give preference to manual techniques.
• Soft... Ideal for removing light, soft hairs on even skin areas. It is applied using a bandage technique.

After shugaring men should take good care of your skin... Caring for her involves the use of moisturizers and harsh scrubs.

After the procedure is completed, there is a lot of sweating, and any physical activity can irritate the skin and lead to some other problems. That's why for a couple of days, it is advisable to exclude sports, as well as sex.

In the same period it is recommended to temporarily stop wearing too tight underwear. After shugaring, synthetics should be abandoned in principle, since wearing such underwear contributes to the "greenhouse effect" and this leads to the appearance of a rash and redness of the skin.

Male shugaring - a physiologically and psychologically difficult procedure, therefore, having decided on it, it is very important to be as careful as possible about the choice of a beauty parlor. Of fundamental importance here is not only the friendliness of the master, but also the level of his professionalism, which lies in certain factors.

• Competence... The sugaring master must answer any question that a man may ask in connection with the upcoming procedure. He must necessarily mention the risks that may arise during the epilation process.
• Compliance with personal hygiene. The foreman must carry out all procedures with gloves worn by the client immediately before starting work. The procedure also requires disposable sheets and wet wipes.
• Psychological preparation... The ability to competently set up a man before the upcoming manipulation is one of the components of the quality work of a good master. A competent craftsman should do everything possible to make clients feel comfortable. To do this, while working, he must talk on abstract topics.
