Wax questions
Getting armpits waxed for the first time next week for a wedding. I do eyes, lip and even Brazilian. For some reason I'm more nervous about getting my armpits.
I'm excited not to have to shave for some time bc I can never get it 100 percent unless I really work at it. Any advise? Does it hurt a lot? Can I wear deodorant after or will it burn? Any reactions?

Re: Wax questions
I did this before the trip..the first time is going to hurt A LOT, I am not going to lie. I was expecting it. It makes a brazilian seem like a walk in the park. I also did my legs which really hurt to but a different like of hurt. I won't be doing my legs again. I noticed the hair was getting trapped under my skin. I am going back next week for my bikini and underarms. The tech said the first time is always the worst.
It doesn't burn, but it will be sore that day. I would do it Thursday or Friday. I also had it bleed in some spots and she said that is the from the follicle being ripped out and is normal.
I also didn't shave for close to 3 weeks. I probably could have went 2 weeks but your hair has 3 growth cycles and I wanted to try and get as much out as possible.
