Re: Brazilian Wax

I'm thinking about maybe doing it. I did it once and it hurt sooooo badly but that was a few years ago. I may try it again for love

Re: Brazilian Wax

Im Really dumb this morning...whats the difference between a Brazillian and a reg bikini wax... Im guessing the Brazillian gets more... am I right?? Ive never had a bikini wax... dont think I could take the pain so Im not really too up on the technical terms.

Re: Brazilian Wax

I want to try, I'm so scared, maybe if I can go w/one of my girlfriends and we could give each other moral support..........

Re: Brazilian Wax

This is how you do it... Lather up with shave gel
squat down and shave from back to front.. TRUST me you will get all the hair!!!!

Re: Brazilian Wax

LOL!!!

Theresa's method works... sure, it grows back but the last time I got a wax - regular only, thanks - I was so red and swollen I was useless... that doesn't happen when you shave!

Re: Brazilian Wax

Theresa, shaving is too hard, i'm no good with sharp objects! I'm not even allowed to cut a bagel by myself anymore!!

Seriously, i have to say that the brazilian freaked me out big time, BUT, it is SOOOOO worth it. SO worth it, and your FH will think so too!!

you don't have to take everything off. as much or as little as you want (but trust me, there is a lot that you can't see down there, but you WILL NOT miss it once you notice its gone!)

THeresa you should try one - it is 10x less itchy if you know what i mean.

Re: Brazilian Wax

FH will be so pumped if I do this!
How long do you have to wait until the redness goes away? My skin is really sensitive and I don't want it to look gross on my wedding night!

Re: Brazilian Wax

I've been wanting to try this but I have never even tried a regular bikini wax. How long does it last? I want to do it for the HM but I was thinking about trying this summer. I'm scared & very shy!!

Re: Brazilian Wax

I have ULTRA sensative skin I even have to wash my clothes in Ivory Snow bc I get a rash..

So shaving is my best bet.. I am so use to it and Ronnie thinks its so funny when I do it..

I can even bend over in the mirror to check!

Re: Brazilian Wax

i would second the recommendation for the J Sisters. They are amazing. I, too, am pain averse and literally can't have my eyebrows waxed b/c I break out every time my skin is so sensitive. J Sisters are the best - its does hurt a little but you get used to it. I actually take a tylenol before going and that keeps the pain to a minimum.

Re: Brazilian Wax

R&T you are so funny!! you must be really dexterous. i can never reach all the right spots

I have actually been thinking of laser hair removal for some key areas. I love the idea of never having to shave/wax/pull/etc ever again. plus i have pretty sensitive skin and i am sick of razor rash!
Anyone ever try this??
