Sugar Sugar

When my regular esthetician relocated out of state, I came to Sugar Sugar in search of someone who would take care of my sugaring needs.
The staff here are very professional and do excellent work. I book out my next appointment at check out and then I get a lovely reminder a day or two before.
If you’re ready to make a switch from waxing to sugaring or your esthetician jumps state lines, check out Sugar Sugar.

The Service at Sugar Sugar is terrible. I am taking my business elsewhere.

I’ve had great services here, facial and eyebrow sugaring. Love their products! Love the location.

I use to love Sugar Sugar and have gone there for years mainly because of the great estheticians that I saw there but over the years all the people I worked with have left. There are little things that have started to make me look elsewhere for my sugaring needs but the main one is… their poor security on their booking page (not https !)
My main concern with the salon is their lack of security on their booking page. I emailed the owner, regarding the situation, she replied back initially stating the site is secure when it is not!! I resent an email to follow up and she ignored me.
I have used other websites that use BOOKER (which is what Sugar Sugar uses for their bookings) and their sites are secure (Https) so it is possible. I think it is sad that the owner of Sugar Sugar doesn’t think high enough of her clients and their info that she is willing to do what it takes to keep her clients’ info secure.
Just want to let all you great people out there know this and be careful with your info. I would always call in to make my appointment and not book them on the site!
Adiós Sugar Sugar, may you not screw people over.

Summary: Basically zero tweezing after waxing, and full eyebrows will stay full not become little pencil lines.
Had eyebrows and underarms waxed by Robin — she’s great and very friendly &chatty. It was my first time ‘sugaring’ so she explained what it is (sugar water + lemon juice). I find that it’s kind of a combination between hard and soft wax. It’s not as fast as soft wax but seems to be better for the skin like hard wax. The serum used after the wax smelled amazing. I’m not sure if I prefer sugaring over hard wax but it’s definitely better than horrid soft wax that rips your freaking skin off.
Also, there was pretty much zero tweezing after!!! Biggest plus ever. I hate being waxed then suffering through a tweezer extravaganza. I get waxed to avoid tweezers, and Robin barely used them, if at all. Also, she is the second person I have ever had that appropriately waxed my eyebrows. My brows are full and thick and even though I always ask for them to JUST be cleaned, I end up with pencil thin eyebrows and it drives me crazy. Robin actually listened and gave me what I wanted! Yay :)
Karli tinted my lashes and was nice and did a good job, however it was kind of weird that she wouldn’t stop insulting the music. It was Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald. I love that music!
Everything was really fast and I was done way before the booked amount of time said. Also, tampons in the bathroom! I didn’t get a bikini wax this time but there have been times where I’m close to starting my period and wish I had one just in case.
Tip — don’t wear dark colors! For the underarms they put a ton of powder on before waxing, luckily I was wearing white.

I can’t say enough great things about Robin and Sugar Sugar! The staff is friendly and welcoming! And the service is great!

So I was recommended by several living humans to go this place. I stopped in to ask them a skin question on my way home today. Not only did the receptionist stop what she was doing and listen to my struggles, she went back and got a really knowledgeable esthetician. She asked if I had a moment to chat, had me lay down on the table, and gave me all her attention.
She gave me some recommendations and no fee.
Above and beyond service; I will be back.

I had a facial here about 2 weeks ago and I figured I should give my feedback on Unilocal :)
Loved the facial & the products they use — lots of facial massage, felt awesome.
The room I was in wasn’t that relaxing though, not as much like a ‘spa’ experience as I had hoped for. The main over head light was in my face the entire time — even though it was dim — it kind of took away from the relaxation process.
However, I did fall in love with the facial products they sell and I splurged on the lip gloss — totally worth it! Also, I’m planning to go back and get the strawberry/​rhubarb serum as I could totally see a difference in my skin after using it.

You know those places that you go where you almost want to give it a terrible review just so you can keep it to yourself? I feel like this is one of those.
I had never been waxed, or sugared, or professionally «manicured» prior to yesterday. I wasn’t exactly nervous, but I knew this was not going to be the most pleasant introduction to the world of bodyscaping (I dove in headfirst with a Brazilian). However, when I got there the ladies were fantastic. My aesthetician, Karina, explained the process and was humorous and kind. It should be said that, good or bad, I am very… vocal. This certainly seemed to amuse her and in turn created an entertaining, albeit painful, first foray into the art of forcibly removing hair from down there. Also, the after care products that were recommended, while not inexpensive, are going to last and be beneficial for some time. I’m very excited and I will definitely be returning for maintenance in about 4 weeks, as recommended.

I am so disappointed in my last experience at Sugar Sugar. I have been here several times in the past and loved it. I have even bought gift cards for friends and took both my best friend and sister’s bridal parties here. My last visit was the worst experience that I have ever had here or at any salon.
I booked a facial and sugaring appointment on ¹⁄₂₇ for appointment date 3/20…almost 2 months notice. I was leaving for vacation on ³⁄₂₁ so having the correct appointment date and time was important.
I received a phone call 30 minutes before my appointment alerting me that they were cancelling my facial because the esthetician (Marie) was sick. I showed up for my appointment and the esthetician was perfectly healthy and was chatting it up the whole time!!! Her sugaring technique was terrible — extremely painful and she left me literally covered in wax and with spots of missed hair!
I sent an email about my experience to the manager after I left (they were not in when I was there) and sent a follow-​up email almost a week later. Still no response to either email.
Apparently the customer service here ends once a customer’s credit card transaction is complete.

Had one great and one horrible experience here. The staff is professional and space is really clean and inviting. Online scheduling is super convenient. The bad experience left me in a lot of pain and with ingrown hairs which I have never, ever had before. Not sure if maybe sugaring just isn’t for me or if I just wound up with an esthetician on her bad day but I haven’t wanted to go back since then.

Thank god for Sugar Sugar and for Karina. I went and saw her today to fix a hack job Brazilian done at a different place last week. I still had enough hair to get ANOTHER Brazilian a week later so that will tell you how bad it was! I have to say that I was super super nervous for this appt because hair removal is never fun and because of the experience I had last week. Karina made me feel relaxed and made the experience as painless as possible. I left Sugar Sugar very hairless, very relieved and very happy! I will be returning!

This place is outstanding! I came in and I wasn’t even buying anything or was there for any services. Just looking around. Sara (I think that’s the lady’s name) helped me out a ton, I was very interested in a lot of things and what drew me into this shop was the huge line of skin care they have for eczema, sensitive, and other skin factors.
I have eczema and my skin becomes so bad during the winter. She walked me thru all the products I SHOULD try but she told me to not buy too much all at once because she wanted to make sure I got the right products. She wrote down a lot of products for me but told me I should just start with the face wash, face cream day and night, then an exfoliating product. She did recommend a strawberry oil that smells SO SO good. But she told me to try out the other simple products first before buying a lot of things.
But she told me before I buy anything I should come in for a facial and they actually use all the products made for my type of skin during the facial. Then after that I can see if I would like to buy the products or not. I love this place and I haven’t even bought anything or done any of their services yet…
NEXT STOP: Facial time!
Thanks sugar sugar for being so educated and taking that extra step with me!

I see Kim, who I think is great. She is always on point, confirms what service I’m there for so there’s no mix ups, like I’ve seen at other places, answers any questions I might have. Is friendly without seeming fake and always does a great job at comforting me. On a few occasions I have had a hard time getting through to the front desk but that’s the only reason its not a five star place!

Cannot say enough good things about Robin! I got an amazing facial with her yesterday. She is very friendly and extremely knowledgable about the products she uses. Having sensitive skin and nut allergies, it always means a lot to me when my technician triple checks before putting something on my skin. Reception was very friendly, and the office itself was very clean and pretty. I can’t wait to go back! I highly recommend booking Robin for any service.

Sugar Sugar just lost a longtime customer! I had been coming here for quite awhile for Brazilians and was mostly really happy with the service, but today I arrived 5 minutes late for my appointment and was told that they would have to modify the service, so I couldn’t get the full Brazilian I was hoping for a week before a tropical vacation…
The amount they left would have taken, what, 2 minutes to finish? Upon leaving I asked if I could make another appointment to finish the job and asked what it would cost: the same as a full Brazilian. That seems absolutely ridiculous. $ 50 for 2 minutes of work? I’ll be going somewhere else from now on.

Well 5 stars for Sugar Sugar and my awesome new (whats the term? Sugarist?) anyway, Corbyn is bomb!
I arrived 15 mins late and this place seems to always be booked, so one portion of my appointment unfortunately couldn’t happen. Honestly, not too upset that my legs werent able to have the hairs yanked out of them. But Corbyn made my lady parts look perfect and pretty in no time. She talked me through the appointment and wasn’t focused on upselling sugaring, which I find annoying, because, clearly, I am here. You don’t need to sell me, ya know? Haha. We traded embarrassing vag stories — come on, you know we all have them. It was done in the same amount of time it takes to get waxed.
As for the pain debate on whether it is less or worse or whatever in comparison to waxing… It is neither less nor the same pain as waxing in my opinion. Yes, it hurts. But feels different. The sugar does not stick to your skin, so when it pulls out the hairs, all you feel is the hairs being yanked out. Not your skin being pulled. Which, in a way, makes the hair being yanked feel even more prevalent, but don’t be scared. It is awesome. Pop a Tylenol or Ibuprofen about 30 mins before. Truly does help.
As for the results… LOVE! My vag area has never felt smoother! Not even after waxing. Even after waxing, I could feel the little hairs under my skin if I ran my hand against the grain of my hair. Not with sugaring! It got all of my hairs and now…3 weeks later the hair has started to come back, but is already thinner and less of it is coming back than the amount that came in after waxing.
I am fair skinned and have tough coarse Hispanic texture hair, so usually when I left from a waxing appointment, I looked like someone kicked my vajine and burnt it for good measure. My skin was slightly pink after the sugaring, but by the time I drove home, it was gone. Nothing left but smooth as hell skin and my perfect little hand crafted triangle, again, compliments of Corbyn. :-)
Duh. Ill be back. They wont be able to get rid of me! But yes, book in advance, this place is über popular and for good reason it seems!

It feels a little bizarre to give this place a 5-​star review when it’s always a somewhat painful experience, but as far as hair removal goes, this is the best! Overall, sugaring is less painful than waxing and also results in less skin irritation. The staff here make the experience about as comfortable as possible, and it’s always much appreciated. Scheduling is easy (love online booking!) and you can save quite a bit of money by scheduling your next sugar appointment within 6 weeks.
I have always gone to Marie and she is great! Very sweet, and fun to chat with which always makes the experience better. She also has good recommendations depending on the type of skin/​hair you have. I don’t usually like buying extra products but they sell some very nice and natural skin soothers that aren’t too pricey.
Definitely the best place to go for hair removal in the area! You won’t go back to old fashioned waxing.

I tried sugaring for the first time today, and it was great! I liked it ten times better than standard strip wax, and at least a little better than hard wax. It’s definitely different. I’d say the application is maybe a little more uncomfortable than hard wax (it feels like someone is tugging on some taffy that got stuck in your pubic hair), but the actual de-​hair-​ifying was much less painful and much quicker than either strip wax or hard wax. The whole process only took about 15 minutes, half the time advertised on Sugar Sugar’s website.
Nicole was sweet and personable and made me feel totally at ease. We chatted pleasantly the whole time. She did a really good job with the sugaring — I’m all smooth and soft now. No bleeding, no roughed up skin, only a little bumpiness and hardly any redness.
A note of caution: the «teeny bikini» is VERY teeny. I would call it an almost-​Brazilian. If you don’t want to end up with a landing strip and not much else, make sure to clarify that.

Now, I know what you’re all thinking. As an Asian person with below-​average amount of body hair, how do I get off telling people where to go for hair removal.
Well, outraged hairy brethren, without going into too much detail, I’ve had my share of hair removal horror stories and can honestly say that Sugar Sugar is now my favorite place for hair removal.
First off, sugaring is NOT LESS PAINFUL than waxing. Sugaring’s the process of taking a sticky object, like saltwater taffy (except the stuff they use probably shouldn’t be eaten) and applying it to body hairs in your sensitive unu areas, thereby pulling it out at the roots. Waxing will pull out bits of your skin, along with the hair; sugaring should not. Because sugaring is a different technique, you can get at shorter hairs easier than with waxing. Sugaring shouldn’t cause as much irritation as waxing.
That being said, my experiences at Sugar Sugar are always pleasantly painful, but quickly and professionally executed. I love that this location is close to where I live and that almost all of the estheticians are well-​qualified to do a good job. The estheticians are also pretty chatty (helping you to keep your mind off of the pain). My last session with Tiffany was over in 10 minutes flat. I’m never going back to waxing (nor another hair removal place)!
