Bikini waxing...Brazilians in particular?

[amoona]

Oh yea I'm Middle Eastern too and I'm like a freakin chia-pet! lol I get everything from my stomach down waxed and it takes forever. It only lasts like 2 weeks for me too which sucks but its a better result then shaving.

The only thing about waxing my legs is after a few days when it starts growing back my legs are super itchy. Anyone else have this issue? I'm thinking of going back to shaving my legs because I never had that issue.

I wax my bikini area at home, just started to actually. Not too bad. I find its easier when you take larger areas rather than doing a whole bunch of strips. I use the Gigi All Purpose Honee Kit and tweeze the strays that got away.

Oh yea, I use one of those bikini trimmers also to cut down on the length. Anyone ever do designs lolll? Maybe a heart haha I was thinking about it.

Words of advice:

Get a good grip. Then just close your eyes and let her rip!!!

LOL

Interesting how many people get it done.

I've thought about permanent hair removal - laser it all off! Has anyone considered this....why or why not? It'd be nice for underarms for sureee.

how old do you have to be to get a brazilian?

also when you went the first time did you trim or did you go like a forest?(sorry gross terms)

Question about Brazilians??
I wax my own bikini line, but when i get closer to the middle bits (lol), my hair follicles start bleeding

, Is that normal?? or am i not pulling taut enough???

bleeding is completely normal. pulling taut is gonna help with bruising and pain, but not a whole lot with bleeding. don't worry about the bleeding. easier said than done, i know.

im palistinean too...i had the same problem! and i started waxing at 12-13ish, cuz im definitly hairy. my legs were super bad. and i did get the itchies after too.

i got my legs lasered. and it was the best thing i could ever do for myself. if i had more money (im a broke college student) id get my entire body done. i would have to wax like every 2 weeks or so. HATED it. oh and a few days after id get lasered id have severe leg itchies too.

im thinking about getting a brazlian. i only got my calfs lasered, so i still have to wax my bikini line, and arms etc.

okay i have an embarassing question haha

does any1 have to wax their butt? lol i get the same type of hair back there that grows on my thighs, its light and thin, and it isnt a ton but there is some there. i hate it soooo much

thin hairs dont come off as good with wax as the coarser ones for me, i dont know why

 

[Paramnesia]

I full brazilian generally includes getting the buttock region waxed lol.
I have horribly long coarse disgusting hair on my thighs, I hate it so much.

I have hair on my butt. When I get brazilians, they wax the crack but not the cheeks.

Thank God they wax the crack though...

I've had 2 brazilians. They hurt me, very very badly. The lady told me the first time would be the worst....all lies. because the second time, I knew what to expect. I might just stick to shaving, because a brazilian is kind of expensive, especially if it only lasts 2 weeks.

God it hurts.

 

[SkylarV217]

I went through a kick of waxing my eyebrows and I thought awesome this doesn't hurt at all .... SO i thought hey i'll try my bikini like ... So i bought the stuff to do it at home ( i figured if it was a B!#@*, i could stop ) I loved it , it didn't hurt at all.... But now I'm a little scared to go and let someone else do it...... Does it hurt more when someone else does it .... and is in not supper strange to have your girlie exposed to some random lady ?

 

[Paramnesia]

Oh I wish I could love getting my bikini line waxed lol. I'm tempted to get it done because I really enjoyed getting my eyebrows waxed lol.

I have gotten mine waxed once. I have thin and light hair there but i just hate it so I waxed it off. Now I have a lot less hair there and it doesn't bother me. Btw, waxing my body or bikini area doesn't hurt much for me, I've been doing it for a long time. For some reason though, waxing my eyebrows and getting them done is a different story, I just can't stay still

This is only the first time that is really painful but after, it is nuts. Recommandation for the one who are gonna try it at home. Wash yourself and put some body cream. Wait maybe 15 to 30 minutes and start waxing. It will be less painful. And choose some water soluble wax.

What kind of wax do you use?

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

Im getting my first brazillian tommorow...Im actually SO scared!

I've never had one before but want to do it as a nice 'treat' for my boyfriend

Im also getting an eyebrow wax and full leg wax. I'm kinda worried about the leg wax too!

Im actually getting it done in my house so, hopefully, it will be less stressful!

Is it true that hot wax hurts less?

its not true. the only way hot wax hurts more is if its too hot, cause then you burn the skin and get a blister, and that's no fun. especially down there

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

Lol

I cant believe it...I chickened out of a Brazillian and have opted to go for just a regular bikkini. Do you think she could do somewhere in between? Like, more than just the bikkini line but not 'right down there' if that makes sense? Or would that be a weird request?

It's a mobile person thats coming to my house to do it.

 

[elektra513]

^^^Nah, I'm sure the person can accommodate your request.

Good luck.

I just got a brazilian wax for the second time ever this weekend. It'd been months (!) since the last time so of course I forgot how much that mess hurt. And it was a different lady.

I'll be sure to stay on schedule with it this time. S'posed to hurt less after a while, so we'll see.

 

[RoCk_StAr_GiRl]

I just got a little bit more than the usual 'bikini line' done...it didn't hurt at all! She said my hair is so fine that it came out really easy!

Im now considering getting the full brazil done...how much sorer does this tend to be compared to a regular bikkini wax if anyone can speak from experiance?
