Posted on Planning 84

well I have just booked my first Brazillian wax for next Wednesday! Anyone had one before and how much does it hurt? The woman laughed on the phone when I said I was going to try that one first. She said I was brave going for that first.......should I be worried? Also the hair lady is coming around...

Also the hair lady is coming around in 20 mins to discuss what she can do with my hair. Yay!

    Well thats generated a bit of discussion!

    I got a Brazilian for the wedding. Used to just get bikini line done which I used to dread but honestly I don't find the brazilian any worse than the bikini wax. I think the anticipation of the pain is always much worse. Best to keep it up though, a lot worse if you let it get a bit overgrown!

    I imagine if you can bear the pain of getting a tat then I'm sure a brazilian will be easy.

    Well I can say this thread really has entertained me this morning!!!!!

    I'm not really keen on the idea of flashing my bits to somebody while they torture me I'm afraid. I do my own bikini line with sugaring which is the same as wax. I heat the stuff up, spread it on, put the strip on and rip it off all by myself....and thats the way I like it....lol The rest of it gets tidied up with the bikini trimmer ?

    Sarah - will be awaiting your update!!!!

    Well im glad I started this thread now, going to be entertaining I think.

    I wouldnt have my underarms done as this is too painful I can imagine. Did think of my legs but I tend to shave above my knee and that might be a bit painful at the tops of my legs. Keep me updated girls! x

    Now im really not sure if this thread is helping or not!!

    Its just one of those things I would like to have done but am too scared, like a few others have said I dont really fancy getting my bits out. Veet works quite well for me, and I thought the results from a wax might be longer than 3 weeks. Maybe Ill take cottesgirl theory, ill go number 21! lol!

    I have a hollywood (all off) every 4 weeks or so (depending on hair growth ?). Doesn't hurt. Smarts for a couple of seconds, I actually find underneath less painful than the front as she uses hot wax for underneath which opens your pores and doesn't need strips to rip it off.

    My beautician informs me that a "landing strip" is actually technically a playboy, a true brazillian leave a small strip of hair all the way under (although apparently some therapists confuse a brazillian with a play boy ) so I would check before they start what they actually mean by brazillian so you end up with the result you want.

    First wax is always more painful, in time if you have it done regularly the hair grows back finer and it's not painful. Maybe take a couple of painkillers half an hour or so before.

    And not all therapists require full knickers off. Mine sort of moves your knickers (in her words it's easier to ensure the wax on'y gets on the hairy bits ?) and does an excellent job, I never have any missed bits. But some will make you take them off.

    I personally think eyebrows hurts more!

    Good luck and you'll be totally fine, it's very addictive, once you've had it done once you'll never go back!

    All my friends think I am a right weirdo for having a hollywood but I love it (and OH does). I find my legs hurt way more than my bits! Don't be to surprised if you end up in some very odd positions while they are doing it you just have to hope no one walks in on you as happened to me one time ? I'm now able to do it by myself at home saves an absolute fortune!

    ? it's a nickname - my name is Nikki (Nicola), my mum has always called me knickers or knickers twickers. I'm not sure why it just stuck ?. My sister is Chloe and she gets called Clo-do or Clo-do Baggins ?.

    Oh and back on the waxing I don't end up in strange positions just legs up ?.

    I have been shaving for years but come to the point now where I want to try a change and please my H2B.

    I would love to have it lasered but have heard that this does not always work and you cant have problems. Id rather just have it waxed for the cost, lol

    Hmmm pizza for tea

    I have mentioned that to him and he said no one is going near his!

    Yeah I do but I always save some for work tomorrow, hickory steak and cajun chicken, cant beat it.

    Nah I cant stand wine, more of a archers or southern comfort girl. Or Cheeky vimtos.

    I go to my work gym and the PEIs there are quite strickt with me as I have said I want to be toned for the wedding, they work me hard!

    I think I am too much of a wuss to go for a wax, like others said I can't bear the thought of lying there spread eagled with all my bits on show ?? would love to try it one day though as I bet the results are much better than shaving. Would never bother doing my underarms or legs though, would stick to shaving for those I think.

    I've got to say though, I would be less than impressed if my OH wouldn't go near me if I needed a wax/shave! The cheek of it! I obviously like to keep it all trim anyway but if it was due to be done and he got the hump about it I would tell him where to go ?

    Haha, you girls have seriously just brightened up my day with this thread,..... 67 posts over a brazillian wax!

    I had mine done yesterday... the only advice i can give sarah is that the more often you go back the less it hurts... i went back last time after about 4 months of full growth and dear god did it hurt. but keep at it... the results are so worth it.

    Automatically makes you feel sexier, came home last night and OH attacked me whilst I was making dinner... walked around feelin like a s*x goddess after that!

    Good luck! You will be fine! xo

    WTS. My H would spend all his time in the spare room if that was the case. Are you still in the 'honeymoon' period? ?
