Brazillian wax=sheer smooth brilliance!!!!
Y'all! I totally took the plunge and got a brazillian bikini wax today!
It totally didn't hurt as much as everyone says it does! And the results are BRILLIANT!
My nether-regions are smooth as a baby's skin--there is NO WAY I am ever going back to shaving, EVAR AGAIN!!!!!
No little tiny dots-o-follicles, just beautiful smooth skin! SERIOUSLY, I cannot communicate how awesome this is. It really doesn't hurt more than getting your eyebrows waxed. I am the new DISCIPLE O' BRAZILLIAN WAXING (TM) ;)
Why I did it:
Well, coupla reasons, but most pragmatically speaking, I've got a big ol' pagan festival coming up in a month, and I'll be sportin' me a full-body henna design (henna designs) whilst running about nekkid. Lady-scaping is a must. Pictures forthcoming (behind links, as shotfromthehip so helpfully suggested back in the day). I'm thinking it would make a GREAT SuicideGirls spread (hehe, pun). Maybe Algor could do those shots??? I'm thinkin black n' white or sepia tone??? What sayesth thou, oh mighty F-list??
What it was like:
Apparently, its all about who you go to. I was very careful to go to a liberal, chill lady that was all cool with ladybits and sex, etc. She also works with first-timers. I've heard of horror stories, but if you live in NE or Lincoln, specifically, just contact me and I'll give you her card. I assure you, she was sweet and oh-so-normal (not overly brusque, but not overly delicate either--like a hairdresser--after all, that is what she is, only she does one hairdo: bald). My favorite part was when she said to me "Oh we don't have to do the rear, if you don't want to..." and I said "Oh, no, this is research, I want to get the whole thing done--I'm collecting data for my friends!" and she just busted out laughing and told me to crouch on all fours like a cat ;)
Ooooh that is soooo funny on several levels!
NEwayz.....
To the ladies:
You mostly psyche yourself out. It really isn't that bad at all. And totally worth the results. It's actually *pretty*. I elected to leave a triangle (technically a trapezoid) of bush for aestetics sake, but the rest of me is smooooooooth. Just brilliant. Makes me think I have to step up the rest of the skin-care regieme, because if my 'nanni is smoother than my face, maybe my face needs some TLC?!?!?
Dang. I gotta start exfoliating.
The final word: I took 3 advil 20 minutes before my appointment, and it stopped aching within 10 minutes of the appointment. Totally worth it. Do it. Seriously. Unless you're into the au natural look (which I tried and got bored with), in which case, you-go-girl ;) Work that!
