• Bandage. This option is the application of sugar mixture to the dermis with a spatula. Fabric strips are glued to the top, then abruptly ripped off. This mechanism is very similar to waxing.
• Manual equipment. This type of shugaring is done with the help of hands. In the course is a hard texture or medium consistency. It is applied to the areas of skin you need. Then the drug is removed with the help of hands. This requires good skill and dexterity, as well as special skills. Moreover, the harder the mixture, the more difficult it will be to carry out the procedure.
