*susan* 1,709 Posted May 25, 2009 Just curious, how many of you have had this done. I am wondering, in comparison to having my eyebrows and upper lip waxed, what is the level of pain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luluc 6 Posted May 25, 2009 **LOL** susan, i won't lie it hurts.....my eyebrows never have though. you want to make sure you go to someone who has been doing it a while.....a slip up of wax a further bit south could lead to problems (ie - bathroom):ohmy: the good thing - it lasts a LONG time before hair grows back & it grows in less.

*susan* 1,709 Posted May 25, 2009 It scares me to death, yet I am definitely thinking about having done. Does it help to have a couple drinks first to relax you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rafa2 5 Posted May 26, 2009 I have only waxed my eyebrows and upper lip once because it hurt so much...but I get my Brazilian wax once a month :smile: I guess everybody's different... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuneAct2 0 Posted May 26, 2009 I go every 4 weeks! They can wax down there all they want, but touch my upper lip and all hell will break loose! Of course, they make "No scream" cream to put down there to numb the area. You put it on a half hour before and you're good to go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bugginbri 0 Posted May 26, 2009 I did a brazillian wax about 2 months ago for the first time. It was quite painful however after I weighed the pros and cons, I was very happy with the results. The cons list was much shorter than the Pros. I am more than willing to go thru the pain every so often to achieve the results. I am going to take tylenol before my next appointment to see if that helps with the pain. I have heard that the "no scream cream" doesn't work so great. I think I would be willing to try it though. I say go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jachut 487 Posted May 27, 2009 I get my eyebrows waxed and I dont think it hurts. I want to punch the woman when she plucks though, I HATE that bit. My upper lip - cant stand it. Hurts too much. Have a red moustache mark for days. Dont have much hair there anyway, only if I wear dark make up and I barely ever wear make up, so I dont care. Brazillian - no thanks.

cutiew/booty 2 Posted May 27, 2009 I get mine done every 3 to 4 weeks. Have a couple glasses of wine first! It's not that bad, it's way worth it and makes you feel cleaner and sexier! My husband loves it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fanny Adams 7 Posted May 27, 2009 Yes it hurts, but so worth it!! MUCH easier the second time around (and easier each time) as the hair is thinner and sparser each time. Thanks for the reminder! *goes to book her next appointment* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*susan* 1,709 Posted May 28, 2009 Well, I think I am going to give it a try. I may do a couple of glasses of wine and tylenol first, lol. I just have to find where to go in my area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PigsRFlying 0 Posted May 29, 2009 I am not sure if it is the norm to do "sugar waxing" but that's what I had done and it wasn't so bad. So, I recommend it. I couldn't imagine having the regular waxing done down there! OUCH! Lip is much worse for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
