    I often hear that sugaring is better than waxing (both hard wax and soft wax) because it is water based and can penetrate the skin in order to remove the hair better. I’m 99% sure this isn’t true but I can’t find any science on why either method is better than the other.

    In my own mind, they are both pulling the hair out by the root. They are simply just different techniques and products.

    Any thoughts or definitive science behind it?

    Hello – I don’t believe it has been studied in direct comparison but the few papers I read suggests that it works just as well but is a little less damaging to skin.
