The Birth of Sugardoh
As a college student weighing out her options for hair removal Aliyah Marandiz came across sugar waxing on social media. Sugaring is a hair removal technique that uses a natural sugar-based paste to gently remove hair from the root while exfoliating the skin. It is known for leaving skin smooth and soft without causing damage. After sugaring with absolutely no skin irritation, Marandiz knew that she was now a sugar mama. Recognizing the sustainability of sugar wax and the lack of its presence in stores she got into the lab and begin to whip up recipes of her own.
After receiving some feedback and trial and error with the ingredients, she perfected her recipe. Sugardoh was born. With the Covid pandemic stopping all salon activity, Sugardoh was the perfect DIY method for hair removal. With women looking for at-home solutions all over the internet, Sugardoh went viral in November 2020. By August, the brand was on the shelves in hundreds of Ulta stores without the help of investors. It’s needless to say that the power of social media had the girls trading wax for sugar.
21Ninety rounded up some of the brands best offerings if you’re new to sugaring and want to give it a try.
