Is there a type of waxing that doesn't hurt?

I saw a T.V show and they said the name of the waxing that doesn't hurt. Do you know what it is called?

    Is there a type of ripping out your hairs by the roots that doesn't hurt? Doubt it.

    yes it's called 'sugaring'. Its originally done with a thick sugary paste and no strips, just applied and pulled off with the hands. It's difficult to find now, as its now done with a more gel like formula and strips, which does hurt slightly more than the paste, but nowhere near as much as warm wax. It's not quite as effective though. Another type of waxing which is less painful than normal warm wax is hot wax, which is applied in thick layers then pulled off when dried. This does hurt more than sugaring however, though is slightly more effective. Unfortunately if you want a really thorough wax, warm wax (the painful one) is the best to go with!
