Bikini waxing



Recommended Posts

I have heard that before you get the brazilian - if you are used to shaving, you have to let it grow out for about 3 weeks first. Is this true? How long does the brazilian last? I have this picture in my mind of being smooth for like a week and other than that always being in various stages of stubble...

You know what works the absolute best? Laser hair removal - smooth and clean as a baby's behind. But the down side is, you can never go back to that hairy natural look - and sometimes you just want to be hairy and nasty good like that, which is what makes being a woman so fun. I don't know what the guys do - so many of them are completely hairless, and my ex used to shave down there (he was going gray) .. but that's their problem, I guess. I always did prefer men to look like men - hairy and sexy that way.

Until I can afford laser, I like the nair gel that you spread on and then scrape off using a razor-shaped scraper thing. Works well and I only need to do it once every 3 weeks. As for the upper lip, Nair aloe vera for the face once a month, the chin - a magnifying glass and fine tweezers, and the brows, only tweezers provide the right amount of control. I prefer a smooth lady-bits area but my BF likes things a little more wild so ... c'est la vie. =)

OMG, read this thread that I found on another forum.

Pain Free hair Removal: The Secret Low-Cost, Effective Alternative to Waxing - Purse Forum

SO funny and informative as well for those that aren't into shaving or waxing. I might try this MSP stuff when I can find it - no more ingrown hairs/stubble sounds good!

OHHH FUNNY little post...but I gotta admit I am running to get a bottle and try it!

"Be extremely careful when trimming near the Celestial Gate (the va-jay-jay proper) use manicure scissors or even nail clippers, whichever works best for you, and a magnifying mirror."

That Shimma person cracked me up!

I thought about it but decided it wasn't something I wanted to do. I do get my eyebrows waxed and sometimes my lips and chin.

I have been thinking about laser hair removal but I'm a big chicken. Anyone have any experience with it?

I don't personally have experience with it, but a friend of mine has. She said it doesn't feel like anything and there's no pain. She had a Brazilian laser done.

They sell it at Wal-mart. Its usually is the section where they sell bump stopper and stuff like that for black men. I guess this is another reason to be happy for weight loss...we can actually reach those area down and around there....lol

Yep, I've looked everywhere. Walmart, CVS and walgreens. The area where I live is mostly white so I'm wonder if that is why they don't carry it. :w00t:

No problem - I tried it tonight! I had to re-read the MSP thread I posted, and laughed all over again. I bought the cream formulation online as I couldn't be bothered mixing up my own. So I ended up leaving it about 9 minutes, no burning or irritation, and got 90% of the hair off.. funnily, the longer bits came off more easily than the stubble. Worked out amazingly smooth, I am SO impressed!!

Going to try the underpits next. Legs I don't mind shaving but the pits get the bumps.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
