This sounds like either fashion advice or cooking advice, and I don’t want to know which is is! I’ll ask the wife if she’s tried “sugaring” over waxing and see how she responds.
It’s skin advice, lol. If you’re looking to rip hair out, sugaring is the far superior choice. I get a Brazilian sugaring done ever 5 weeks, and I pop right out of my appointment without pain or any of the other waxing ill side effects.
Wax sticks to the top layer of your skin, so when the hair is ripped away, so it the top membrane layer. This leaves you more susceptible to infection, also, it fucking hurts. Sugar just sticks to your hair and leaves skin intact.
Wax uses paper strips, so much more waste. You use the same sugar for the whole appointment, no paper is used.
Wax uses a higher heat point to work, which is why so many people get burns when waxed. Sugar uses a much cooler heat point, so it won’t burn you.
I just don’t see any pros to waxing over sugaring. Some people claim sugaring lasts longer, but if it does, it’s not enough of a noticeable difference, imo.
When I’m not struggling to stay awake tomorrow I’ll put to rest all the anti-wax myths OP just perpetuated, but sugaring is far more risky than waxing. If they they have good enough results sugaring themselves then that is great, but coming from someone in business, sugaring is a growing trend that is hurting people in their most sensitive areas. I’d be open to an AMA on the subject of aesthetics and hair removal as well because the amount of myth surrounding it is super high. There’s a reason people see professionals.

I assume that “wax”, “sugar” and “heat point” have some special definitions in this context? The melting point for paraffin wax is somewhere between 40°C to 60°C, the melting point of sucrose is around 185°C.
I’m talking about the heat point in which they’re malleable enough to be used to remove hair. That heat point is higher for wax, but sugar is cooled way down to get to that point.
I get a Brazilian done, so I go to a professional to do it. I know you can do it at home, and I might try my legs or pits that way. But not a Brazilian, lol. I do know it’s easy to make. Googling how to make it will show lots of results.
Sugaring over waxing. No infections, way less pain, same smooth results.

Your esthetician should be dusting your skin with powder so that it doesn’t take any skin off at all

Sounds like you haven’t seen an experienced hard wax specialist. You shouldnt ever be getting burned.
Can you do it at home? Or do you need to go to a salon?

Boo bring back 70s muff. Muff is the right stuff.
For some, sure. Not for me.
Why wouldn’t you do a Brazilian at home? I used to do it myself for years, it’s totally doable
