anniedub 0 Posted June 16, 2008 it hurts just pulling out one armpit hair when shaving OWOWOWOWOWOWOWWWIE Maybe I'm just a freak, but I used to get my armpits waxed all the time (no longer unfortunately, due to a delicate financial situation) and it never hurt very much. I used to get regular brazilians too, same story. The thing that DOES hurt me is my eyebrows. Yeouch! PREPARE FOR A POSSIBLE TMI. Brazilian-wise -- At the moment, it's a jungle down there. I'm very poor right now (paying off a certain surgery) plus i'm single, so there's no-one to get annoyed. It certainly annoys me, so I keep it trimmed, but otherwise "au naturel". Whatever. Not sure why i'm sharing this with you all. Ah well :biggrin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michee 2 Posted June 27, 2008 I got the Full Brazilian (no hair, no where) done yesterday. It really hurt and took about 35 minutes. It was fairly invasive, I mean she had her fingers and face (so she could see what she was doing) right in there. However.......unbeatable crazy dirty multi-orgasmic sex this morning. SO it was definetly worth it ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunzi 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Well, I was inspired to phone a local spa and as soon as I was home from the hospital (post op infection and dis-banding), I went in and had laser hair removal on my chin and upper lip, lasered a couple of sun spots, and booked a waxing. So yesterday I got my wax. I did arms, underarms, and legs. My incisions aren't quite healed yet so I'm doing a standard bikini wax in a couple of weeks. I feel so much better! It didn't hurt at all and was worth every penny! I'll never go back to shaving. Always Hunzi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lapbandbarb 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Hi Pix, my Mum owns a beauty salon I have had Brazilains, Hollywoods and a Vegas (What are they all named after places?) You want to aim for 2 to 3 days before he gets back, the day before at the very latest! I am also trained as a waxer if you have specific questions PM me and I can tell you anything you need to know :redface: KiKi XX Miss Wilde, Sorry to ask and be so niave at 43 years old, but if you don't mind me asking, what are Hollywoods and Vegases? Even the lady who does my brazilain doesn't know. Maybe we just call the particular style something else! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eeyore 0 Posted July 2, 2008 I made an appointment for my legs and kini wax in two weeks. That should be more than enough time for my leg hairs to grow out right? I'm nervous about the kini part. I don't want a full brazillian but want more than just outside of my panty line done. A friend of mine calls it the airstrip or landing strip, just a strip on the top and everything else (sides, under etc) gone. Anyone know what style that is?

I am sooo excited about it!!!!! :thumbup::w00t: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myturn0421 0 Posted July 3, 2008 This may have already been asked/answered, but how long does the hair have to be? I shave regularly now (sometimes :thumbup:) but I would rather wax it. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pix 4 Posted July 3, 2008 What they told me was 1/4 inch is the shortest they want to see it for waxing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajoneen 0 Posted July 4, 2008 I used to wax. When I filled out the skin more the surface was tighter/smoother. Then gained alot and didn't really wear stuff that showed the stuff I didn't want to shave(lower legs). Now I've lost some weight and I have loose skin. My question to the ladies that have lost some weight is: Does the loose skin hinder the waxing at all? Do you help the waxer out and pull it tight? Ya see with my weight loss has come some really loose skin. Any help?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gracey 7 Posted July 4, 2008 TWEEZERS!!! :tt1: Pardon my language but ARE YOU SHITTIN ME?!?!?! I would sooner tidy up with a razor or machete before I use tweezers. If im going to yank the hair out it sure as hell wont be one at a time!!! :thumbup: Thank goodness I only read these posts at home. I just screamed with laughter!!! I thought only I was a wussy; whew, that was hysterical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LB4Life 0 Posted July 14, 2008 OMG I had a brazilian done a year ago and it hurt like a mother! I have two tattoos and they hurt much less. I was charged about $75 and luckily it only takes about 10 minutes of torture but still, OMG I had to hold back my screams. Just imagine....HOT wax close to your who ha and bum whole area (sorry too graphic) but your reaction is to close your legs and cringe but if you do then the wax will seal things up, yikes! I survived obviously, and the next day, after the soreness subsided, then it was so nice and smooth, which lasted for a few weeks. The second time was much faster and not as bad, but for only a three week enjoyment at such a costly fee, I was not willing to keep it up. My friend does the brazilian by lasering and instead of the heat, it's more of a burning since the laser scortches the hairs. I think for a special occassion the brazilian wax would be nice but I just "maintain" my garden by shaving :confused_smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
