Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
I have never done it.
Never thought of doing it.
Never wanted to try.
Didn't appeal to me.
And I saw on the pregnancy board that the pg ladies have it done. If someone pg can do, we'll, can I??
Am I missing something? DOESeNT it hurt like hell???
And do you have to SHOW your hello kitty (thanks nene for that term) to the technician doing the waxing?
Do you shave beforehand so it's not SO hairy?
Inquiring minds want to know. Can you share with me the good, the bad and the ugly?
Should I try it???????

Re: Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
I agree with you. Never did it and frankly don't think I need to! Are the people who do it that hairy or do they just skeeve the smallest amt of hair?

4 weeks of hair growth is needed. Not only do they get up close and personal with your vag, my lady pats it after each time she pulls (proper term??)

They don't get grossed out. They see it sooo often. You shouldn't be embarrassed. Look at what they do for a living

Re: Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
don't feel bad about not getting it done just bc others do. If it doesn't seem like your thing thats fine! I don't get waxed either. I just would rather not deal with the pain, I don't want to look like a 12 year old and also for health reasons...it's there for a reason and it's perfectly ok not to remove it. Trim it, shape it...whatever you want to do...but if you're only considering waxing it bc you feel like the odd ball out...know that you are not...at all.

here is the down and dirty *no pun intended * LOL you go in to the waxing room and typically they ask you to take off your pants and underwear some places will give you some disposable undies but really there's no point- they are seeing it all anyway you typically lay on a waxing table with a leg spread they wear gloves and it goes pretty quick. if you are getting a brazillian they will literally get all up in there. if its just a bikini its not so bad. they also will trim it afterward with scissors or a razor depending on what you want. its really not too bad. i prefer to wax it than to shave. :)

It's really not too bad, IMO legs are much worse! I will never do legs again.

Re: Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
Got it done once, never again. If you're going completely bare that also involves getting up on all 4s so they can get the back. Hurts like a beyotch too. Had I known that I would have stuck with shaving. It's not for me at all.

Re: Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
I think it depends on where you get it done. When I first got it done, i used a french wax place in the city downtown. it was all natural, no muslin strips used. Got tired of going into the city and went on long island.
I will NEVER get a brazillian at a nail salon (HORRIBLE!!)
I take a pain reliever about an hour before I go. I have never felt that much pain, except in the nail salon.

I've been doing it for years and have never had to get up on all 4s.
If someone is legitimately interested, I would recommend going to a reputable place, NOT a nail salon. That is not somewhere you want them double dipping. Also, the soft wax, like European Wax Center uses (promise I don't work there ) hurts MUCH less than the strips.

Re: Ok. Getting waxed.... I mean getting waxed down there.
I waxed everything for years until I decided to laser it for good.
It hurts yes, but to me, its worth it.
Also, you probably want to "trim" before you get there.
I haven't had hair in years and I kinda love it.

Ditto. Laser is the best.

Go to European wax center , they are really good! Try just getting a regular wax this time, then decide if you want to do Brazilian.

It totally depends on the place. NEVER go to a nail salon - go to a place that specializes in waxing down there (think European Waxing Center). I used to get in done a few years ago and loved it. It was so easy, but the growing out process sucks big time! I actually started growing it out to go get a brazillian about a month ago, and gave up and shaved because I was so darn uncomfortable during the growing out phase!!!
You forget about the pain by the time you walk out the door. I think the pros definitely outweigh the cons!!

I just went last weekend to European wax in massapequa. It hurts but for a second. I'm sick of shaving. They see EVERYTHING but whatever. All lady parts look similar. My DH was thrilled.

I have been pricing it out to start after I have my baby, and there are ALWAYS groupons for it. Reputable places too!

I waxed till I got pregnant. Right now everything is just too sensitive but I plan to get waxed once I have her. Hair bothers me and I feel cleaner without it plus in the summer I don't have to worry about missing spots.

Do not shave before hand!!
They've seen it all and your hairy bits are nothing new to them.
Yes it hurts, but the benefits outweigh the pain.

OMG this thread is making me clench! I'm so glad I'm not hairy. I can go about 2 weeks without shaving my legs.
