One of the most popular procedures before the holiday and seaside season is sugaring of the buttocks and intergluteal fold. This procedure is done by both women and men who strive for ideal smoothness, good hygiene in the hot season and comfort in the intimate area. In addition, women really want to feel comfortable in sexy swimsuits at sea or by the pool, without embarrassment and thoughts about unwanted hair.
Unlike razors and depilatory creams, sugar depilation provides long-lasting results, does not cause irritation and is suitable even for sensitive skin. It is especially important to choose the right sugar paste, for example, professional sugaring products of the Terra, Enova or BioLife brands are widely used by sugaring specialists in beauty salons throughout Ukraine and Europe.
Why do you need sugaring your buttocks?
Sugaring your buttocks is not only about aesthetics, but also about hygiene. The skin in this area is especially delicate, and unwanted hair can cause discomfort, chafing, and promote the growth of bacteria. Sugaring between the buttocks allows you to get rid of hair in the intergluteal fold, which is important for maintaining cleanliness and freshness throughout the day. The procedure is safe and provides smoothness for 3-4 weeks.
For buttock depilation in women, the procedure is often combined with a deep bikini in order to completely treat the intimate area. Also, some clients choose only the classic bikini area, preferring not to touch the intergluteal fold.
Recall that a classic bikini is hair removal along the line of underwear, and a deep bikini includes treatment of the pubis, labia and intergluteal fold. This complex provides ideal smoothness and maximum comfort.
How buttocks sugaring is done: features of the procedure
The protocol for the buttocks and intergluteal fold sugaring procedure is not much different from the deep bikini procedure, but there are still some nuances.
If everything is more or less clear with the buttocks area, then the more difficult to access area between the buttocks raises doubts. Beginners are always interested in what position is best for the client to do depilation of such areas.
If for deep bikini sugaring the standard poses “Half Butterfly” (the client alternately bends his legs at the knee, lying on his back), “Butterfly” (lying on his back, spread both legs, bent at the knees, to the sides), “Sloth” (when one or both legs hang off the couch) are used, then for depilation of the intergluteal fold such poses are inconvenient.
For sugaring in the area between the buttocks, several popular poses can be used:
- “Heron” (lying on your back, gently bend the client’s leg at the knee and press it to the client’s chest) – the skin will be well stretched, all hard-to-reach places can be easily viewed.
- “Birch” (some clients can boast of good stretching and, lying on their back, lift both legs up at the same time) – this pose is very convenient for the master, as it provides excellent visibility and accessibility to all the places where hair needs to be removed, however, not all clients will be able to repeat it.
- “Log” (the client lies on their stomach and holds their buttocks with their hands).
- “Running deer” (the client lies on their side with one leg bent at the knee and holds their buttock with their free hand) is the most popular pose for removing hair between the buttocks.
- “Embryo” is a pose similar to the previous one, only this time the client bends both legs at the knees.
- “Kitty” (a knee-elbow position in which the client lies face down, kneels and rests on their elbows).
Poses should be chosen based on the client’s stretching capabilities, their physique, skin turgor, and the comfort of the master and client.

The skin is cleaned, treated with an antiseptic, and Before depilation products, then sugar paste is applied against the hair growth and removed in the direction of growth. For working with delicate areas, use a medium or high density paste.
For depilation of the buttocks and intergluteal fold, it is best to use a medium or thick sugar paste. The choice of density depends on the working conditions of the master and the individual characteristics of the client.
Most often, a dense paste is suitable for the intergluteal fold area to avoid spreading, especially when the room is hot. Acid-free sugar biopaste TM BioLife sugaring No. 5. Hard is perfect for such purposes.
Sugar paste of medium density can be used at a low body temperature of the client or for women’s skin with soft hair. We also recommend using a medium density paste for buttock depilation in women.
Try the series of bright multi-colored sugar pastes Enova and you will be able to choose the right option not only by density, but also by color, raising the mood of both yourself and the client.
But depilation of the buttocks in men requires a thicker paste, since the hair here is coarser. In such cases, thick pastes are perfect, such as men’s acid-free black sugar paste with shungite TERRA MEN’S SUGARING.
