We all know shaving can cause irritation to your skin. We get nicks, razor burn and even ingrown hairs even than there is no promise of getting every single hair!! Maybe you thought of waxing, that can be pretty expensive and let's face it who really wants to have a random stranger waxing them and in a place where so many others have gone?? Well chickadees there is a solution it is called the Halawa aka sugaring.. It's a simple process with only a couple of ingredients that you can find right at home.. You can use this on any part of your body where hair grows and works well as a bikini wax! It's simple to make and takes roughly 5-10 minutes to cook up.. The only difficult part is the waxing because as we all know waxing is not the most comfortable of things, so as a suggestion do this with a friend or your significant other.. As the saying goes "beauty is pain"
Halawa hair removel
2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons lemon juice *about half a lemon*
4 tablespoons water
Strips from old sheet
In a large pot bring together all the ingredients and boil on medium to medium high heat, wait for it to boil which is fairly quickly.. Don't forget to stir frequently!! One it is boiling remove from heat and allow to cool just a bit usually about 30-45 minutes. Once cooled slather on the area you wish to remove the hair, pat on the strip of sheet on, pull skin taut and pull the sheet off against the direction of hair growth and there you have it no hair! To soothe skin apply olive, almond or coconut oil.. You may also use cocoa butter lotion
