Brazilian wax?
 

I have heard of brazilian waxing and am clueless as to what exactly they are waxing down there. Is it just the bikini area or the whole shebang- pouty part and all??? i've seen supermodels and centerfolds with all their hair down there gone. has anybody had this done and how painful is it????:confused:

Hey I've heard of this!!!!!! It was talked about on Oprah and it's getting rid of all the hair down there.....OOOOUUUUCCCCHHHHH!!!!!! No way, not now, not ever!!!

LMAO!!! Yep! The whole shebang-pouty part and all!!!!!!! I get waxed, but I don't do the Brazillian... I leave what I call my 'landing strip'....;)

LOL...:D :D LANDING STRIP....:D :D LOL :thumbup:

I have never waxed, even though I really want to. But I shave it all...the whole shebang.

:D There is no way anything but a razor and a LOT of shaving is going down there. I wax my lip but that is where I draw the line. LOL:yelrotflmao:


Michelle

which lip???:D :D :D :D :D

LOL at "which lip" :D

ROTHLMAO!!!TOO FUNNY!!! how bad does it hurt though? and you just lay there and spread 'em...that's the only thing holding me back right there...shoot only a few people are privileged enough to look at my bird-my hubby and my ob/gyn doc. how do they keep from waxing the delicate part-do they stretch it out?? i'm am so sorry for asking such graphic ??? but i really am curious.:)

I'm closing my eyes!!!! LOL Somethings are meant to be left alone..don't ya think? I'm learning more this morning than I have my whole adult female life...LOL:D

i shave it too...good thing i'm limber cuz you've got to twist and flex and bend to get all them pesky hairs!!!:D :D :D

I'm all for waxing everything however, this is not something that really prevalent in my area. I had my legs waxed at my salon once thinking i would be smoother & it would last longer. She missed big sections (my leg hair is blond) & it grew back just as quick as shaving if not faster. Plus i had to let it grow out before I could do it. If I could find a good place for a good price I'd let them wax it all.

I'm gonna have to lose some weight to even find it...ROFLMAO:D

LOL I can promise you it isn't that one! LOL Altho my hubby would love to be the one to pull the strip off on either one! LOL


Michelle

i'm so sorry janet...i just have to ask...please forgive me. :embarass: p.s. i won't tell if you peek at the screen:wink2:

maybe you can talk him into a two for one deal-you let him wax you and you wax him:D :D :D

LOL You sound like me. I told my husband one time I should roll aorund in flour and look for the wetspot! :eek: :D :D You def have to bend and twist to make sure you get all the hairs. You know what works great.... A beard trimmer! It makes it a lot easier to get all of those hairs.

Michelle

No No No, don't apologize!!! I can't help peeking anyway. I'm learning so much!! I just can't believe it.

You know you really can tell the difference in the ages. I mostly grew up being taught that I needed to take care of my body and skin...etc. only we did it by trying to eat right and stay out of the sun. But now days, there is something for every square inch of the body inside and out. Totally amazing. Really wish I had some of these choices when I was younger. Not that I'm old by any means. But also coming from a very small town, most of these things were never talked about much less done.

That's not very nice of your husband to say & in case you didn't know he stole that line from the movie "the last boyscout".

i am living in a small town myself so i know how it feels...but i'll be danged if i have to look like Sasquatch in a bikini!!!:D :p :D

i use my husband's trimmer and don't tell him about and when he compains about why it's not working i just laugh and walk out of the room!!!:p :p :p

Sasquatch...you are so funny!!! :D

I ALWAYS have a couple of cocktails before I go. It's a very humbling experience... The girl that I go to has a good sense of humor and she laughs at.... I mean WITH me!:D

They have these paper panties that you put on to cover the delicate pouty parts;) , and they do one side at a time. You keep one leg straight... bend it at the knee... and lay it to the side so that the inside of your thigh is exposed. They put on the warm wax... put a cloth on top of the wax... pull the skin on your thigh to make it taut... and RIP!!!! All the hair sticks to the wax on the cloth. They repeat until they get all the hair...

It only hurts for a second, and they have cream to put on and take the sting and redness away. It leaves you really smooth and no rashes or itching when the hair grows back.

I'd love to get my legs done, but letting the hair get long enough to do it is what holds me back.

So, when you get EVERYTHING waxed down there, do they get EVERYTHING?! All the little pesky hairs that I sometimes miss with a razor?? How long before it grows back?

I used to use hubby's till I got Yorkies.... now I use the Wahl beard and mustache trimmer that I bought to use on their ears....:p they don't complain!

He didn't say it I did! LOL :D


RLC You are a brave woman!;)( Opps I meant Sherry! ) I have always said that if I did it I would have to have a few drinks as well. I am a huge woos when it comes to pain. I have friends that get tatoos and some are just as pretty as they can be. I still couldn't bring myself to do it.

Michelle

Oh, I haven't had it done. I just WANT to have it done! :p :D :p :D :p Beauty hurts, you know?! :) :) :)

I don't do the Brazilian... just the garden variety bikini wax...

Sometimes there are a few strays and she'll get those with tweezers. It takes a while for it to grow back. The hard part is letting it get long enough to wax again. No problem in the winter, but I live at the beach and in the summer it can be annoying...

Started getting a brazilian almost ten years ago. My friend went to a little old lady that waxed strippers. First time I went in, I got the whole shebang and never stopped. Unfortunately, she retired and I found a new girl who actually became a friend of mine. Found out that the little old lady was slightly more painful than the new girl. Anyway, I moved to Northern California and have yet to find someone who is reasonably priced.
I got to be honest with you ladies, I love it. The feeling of being bald is nice. It does'nt stay smooth for very long, but the waxing starts to damage the follicle after you have been doing it for a long time. I have a bunch of bald spots where the hair no longer grows. This is great for a girl that has a lot of thick hair all over her body. Thank God I am blond, or I would be a sasquatch.:rolleyes:
Anyway. I don't find it all that painful. Sometimes it hurts more than others. I think it has to do with your pain threshhold and where you are in your cycle. I would recommend it to anyone.

I'm just a LITTLE to shy to get a brazilian! My friend gets them and they take off every last hair on your cannoli AND butt!:embarass: But I use a trimmer to keep the hair real short on my landing strip, (thanks for that one Sherry Lynn ;) ) and shave the rest with a razor.

There's nothing worse than seeing a woman in a bathing suit with chia pet growing out of it!:eek:

LOL:D Larry the cable guy said it would also be like going to a ZZtop concert in her drawers ! LOL :eek: :D

Michelle

LMAO you guys crack me up!! I don't wax, it looks way too painful, i hate body hairs, so i shave EVERYTHING except my head lol

chia pet!!!!ROTFLMAO!!!!!!! i used to have a friend who would wear a bikini and she had a line of hair (like a man's!:eek: ) that grew from her belly button down to her afro-bush (she didn't shave at all!!!) and i'm assuming up her butt cheeks all the way to her lower back....i would cringe every time we went to the lake and me and my other friends tried to tell her to shave but she swore up and down that her man liked her that way!!!....personally i think he just didn't want to hurt her feelings and didn't know what to say.....eeeeeeeeewwwwwwwww!!!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:

It's all gone ...poof...lol and I hear it is very painful.. NO THANK YOU...lol

i dont wax i shave it al off, yes im bald and i love it, its soooooo clean. i will leave a landing strip though but the rest comes off... feels great

No offense to you shavers, but you can never get it as smooth shaving as you an through waxing. By the way, I have a fear of body hair too. I hate it. I use to wax my arms, now I just shave them along with my legs. Looks nice too.

I leave that too! I did one of those before and let me tell ya, I'd rather of given birth to triplets! I bled and it hurt SOOOOO bad...but then again, I did it at home.

well...i went to walmart and got one of those sugar wax kits and i'm going to torture myself for the next hour...the things women do to themselves....s*** if a man was this partciular about his body we'd call him gay! do any of you have a gay male friend? aren't they the best!!!!:D

OMG!!! i waxed one side of my bikini area---the pain!!!:eek: it's all red and puffy and it looks like the pores are going to bleed!!!:eek: :eek: i need a drink-a strong one...but it's so soft and smooth....why oh why can't waxing be easy???i might just have to swallow my pride and throw my inhibitions to the wind and pay somebody to do this...i guess i'll be calling around town tomorrow and see if they even do that stuff here-small town:rolleyes: :D :D :D i did everything according to the instructions.....maybe i'll just wax my legs instead...or i might just get a buzz to alleviate the pain and go to sleep:p

Oh, the latter sounds MUCH more fun! :p :p :p
