 Over the past year, I’ve had so many conversations with clients, friends and family about hormones, weight fluctuations, fasting, and feeling “off” in their bodies.
I want to share something that has genuinely been a game changer for me. Last year, at a time of health desperation I discovered Fast Like a Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz—and it completely shifted how I understand my body, especially when it comes to fasting, diet and hormone balance. What I love most is that it’s not just about fasting, its about when to and what to eat. It explains how your menstrual cycle in a depth I have never understood. I will hep with your stress levels, and daily habits that all impact your female hormones. You will understand your hormones and how to adjust your lifestyle so your body actually works with you, not against you. Since applying what I’ve learned: • I’ve lost weight without pushing or restricting • My hormones feel more balanced, I have a regular period • I’ve learned how to eat and fast in a way that supports each phase of my menstrual cycle And overall, I just feel better—more consistent energy, less inflammation, and more in tune with my body As someone in the beauty and wellness space, I’m always looking for ways to support results from the inside out—and this is something I now recommend regularly. If you’ve ever felt confused about fasting, frustrated with your hormones, or like your body isn’t responding the way it should, this is 100% worth the read. You can find it here Check out her other books as well, I have them all Age Like A Girl The Menopause Reset Eat Like A Girl Fasting Journal I wholeheartedly love her approach and have made lifelong lifestyle changes because of them. Even my children have benefited; they avoid sugar and know how to fast to avoid viruses. I want every female I know to experience this book. I wish I found this sooner.

If you’ve ever walked out of a sugaring appointment feeling smooth… only to notice regrowth way sooner than expected—you’re not alone. This is one of the most common frustrations I hear from clients. And the truth is--it’s usually not the sugaring that’s the problem. It’s what’s happening before and after your appointment. Let’s break it down. 1. You’re Not on a Consistent Schedule Sugaring works best when your hair grows in a cycle. If you’re waiting too long between appointments (or going too early), you’re constantly restarting that cycle. The sweet spot: every 4–6 weeks This is how we:
I get it—life happens. But shaving resets everything. It:
3. Your Skin Prep Isn’t There Sugaring isn’t just about hair—it’s about skin. If your skin isn’t properly exfoliated, hair can get trapped under dead skin. That leads to:
4. Hormones Play a Bigger Role Than You Think Hair growth isn’t just mechanical—it’s hormonal. Stress, cycle changes, and even lifestyle shifts can impact:
5. Your Technique Matters (A Lot) Not all sugaring is equal. Proper technique removes hair in the natural direction of growth, which helps:
The Bottom Line If your results aren’t lasting, it’s not random—and it’s definitely fixable. With the right:
you’ll start noticing smoother skin for longer, fewer ingrowns, and overall better results. Sugaring is a process—not a one-time fix. But when it’s done right (and consistently), it’s one of the most effective and skin-friendly methods of hair removal out there. If you’re unsure what schedule or routine is right for you, I’m always happy to guide you. Every body is different— your plan should be too!  |
