At first, body sugaring sounds like a good idea- until you see the prices: $65, $75 if you're a first timer for brazilians. PLUS a minimum of a 15% tip is expected. Or, what if I go to the grocery store and pick up the 2 ingredients (sugar & lemon juice) and mix up my own sugaring wax for under $5? Okay, maybe not, but what do these sky high prices consist of?? I have friends from Syria who DO make their own sugar mix at home (sugar waxing originates from the middle east) and they have gawked at me when I told them about the prices at ahh, sugar, sugar.
