About

Sugar South is a sugar waxing studio on 16th Street North in St. Petersburg. The studio describes itself as the sugar waxing experts in the city. Its hair removal is built around sugaring, a method the studio traces back to ancient Egypt.

The studio makes its sugar paste on site using only three components: organic sugar, fresh lemon and filtered water. By the studio's account, the paste contains no resins, dyes, synthetic fragrance or chemicals. The studio presents sugaring as kinder to skin than conventional waxing, and says it may lessen irritation and ingrown hairs. The studio also states that its formula comes with a satisfaction guarantee.

Services cover the underarms, arms, legs, bikini line, buttocks, and face, as well as Brazilian maintenance and full Brazilian work. Underarm sugaring takes around 15 minutes and bikini line sugaring about 20 to 30 minutes. Clients are asked to let hair grow to about a quarter inch first, or two to three weeks after shaving, and to skip deodorant for several hours after the visit. Most clients who book underarm or bikini sugaring return every three to five weeks, according to the studio. Appointments can be booked online or by calling or emailing the studio.

Sugaring is the core method, with a focus on comfort and intention that blends modern self-care with traditional beauty rituals.

The studio describes its atmosphere as warm, inclusive, and body-positive.
