I can't believe what I've just done. I was asking a salon near me about brazilian waxing, how much it costs etc. They came back to me just now and said they had a cancellation tonight at 5:30, and did I wanna take it?
I said YES :o
I'm literally shaking now :rofl: Quick, gimme your tips for stressing less before a brazilian!
RELAX!
They are the best. First one hurts, I won't lie to ya - but they're great.
:hug:
You'll be fine!
Head to the pub!! STAT!!
:rofl:
Good luck! and enjoy ;)
Youl be fine!
TBH I didnt think my foirst one or any of the rest hurt as all.. maybe I have a high pain threshold??
ENJOY!
:rofl:
:rofl::
The only part that 'hurts' in the top near your bikini line the rest is nothing. They are the best.
What? You think I was joking? :rofl:
I had it done for the first time last week and I almost landed on Mars.
I just relax and enjoy the fact that I don't have to do housework for an hour! I almost nodded off last appointment. It was my first brazillian but I was quite chilled
Hahaha, thanks Enchanted, you're really helping! I've been getting my eyebrows and lip waxed for years, and have also done the leg and that wasn't a problem. Is it gonna be any worse than any of those?
No advice but good luck!
You are braver than me :o
Oh c'mon! I gave you a solution!
It hurts but it's worth it!
I found my legs more painful then most of my bikini area. The spot just above the bikini line is the ouchiest but they whip it off pretty fast! Second time isn't as bad as the first!
Having my underarms waxed hurts way more than a BRazillian. Hence, I have brazillions and shave my underarms.
the lower legs hurts more. The bit at the top hurts the most, so I get them to leave a landing strip. GL - you'll never go back
Just breathe through it.
Your lip hurts more than anywhere else, you'll be fine :)
you'll be fine.
i reckon cotton undies are best cos they're less likely to sort of stick (not that they really stick as such) afterwards (oh god, i really hope that's not just me :redface:).
the waxer i've been to has wipes for you to use if you want after you get undressed (while they're not there). i like that - esp if it's hot/you've been at work etc - makes me feel a little 'fresher'.
even if it does hurt, you'll like the results so much you'll think it's worth it :)
hahahah! Don't worry it's not just you and god that can hurt!:
My tip is a glass of wine and couple of panadol beforehand and you'll be fine. GL
Yeah I must say, it hurts much more about an hour after than it does at the time.
A nice cold shower on your swollen bits will be in order in this heat today!
And don't use soap, moisturiser or anything else on the areas for at least 24 hours.
Alright, going straight from work so glad I had a shower this morning ;) Trying to focus on how much better it's gonna be afterwards to distract me from stressing out - trust me, I stress about everything! It's not about the pain either, coz I can deal with pain; it's the embarrassment, the thought that I'm gonna walk in there and they're gonna tell me I'm too fat or something. I have told them I'm very plus size and its my first time, but I'm convinced they're gonna laugh at me...
They won't laugh at you honey, they are professionals, and I guarantee that they have seen everything, every variation of normal.
Just think of them like you would a GP or gynaecologist.
:hug:
oh yeah, don't let that put you off. they won't laugh at you. i go to one that is very clinical so it really does feel like the doctors!
they'll keep you busy pulling on skin etc, and that helps take your mind off things as well :)
You're a brave woman. I think I need a drink just thinking about it.
I'm with B! Let us know how it goes, you might just convince me to go and get one myself :):
Or just smile and quickly change the subject if it was awful
Ooooh Keike, you brave woman, I wish I had the guts (balls just didn't sound right just now!!!), to get it done.
You must, must, must, must come back & tell us how you went!!! I want details woman!!!
I would just drink stacks of water to make sure your skin is nice & firm & hydrated. bahahaha
I'm so excited for you!!!!
BOL Darling! *mwah*
Hahahaha, I'm picturing a bunch of us making this a regular thing and having a few wines beforehand. All giggling away in the waiting room and one by one get called in and come waddling out :rofl:
Ooh Jayne, WHAT does BOL stand for!!
All I can say is a big good luck
:hug: you're braver than I!
Best of Luck - not that you will need it.
You know, I would maybe go commando style from the salon to home - that way you can just jump straight into the shower & wash off the wax & not have to peel your knickers off. Sorry, if that's TMI. But I'm just keeping it real :)
Oh god. I'm hiding under a rock for you
Ahurani -hahahah, thanks!
Hmm, good plan Jayne! Just hope I'm not in a car accident. Oh well, will look FABULOUS if I am :rofl:
ABSOLUTELY!!! IF there were to be a car accident, you would receive the quickest & most attentive care - I can guarantee you!!!
I can't wait to hear what the Professor thinks of your new 'do. Have you told him or are you planning to surprise him???
oooh, good luck is all I'll say but once you've had it done, you'll never go back to bush ;P
On a more serious note - take some panadol it *might* help...
Surprising him Jayne, we're actually going away for the weekend tomorrow night, so I only hafta hide it for one night ;)
LOL Rhichichi, I'll raid my drug supplies! Yeah, I'm thinking it'll be more comfortable after this, as long as I don't die from embarrassment or pain :rofl:
Oh wow, I can't wait to hear his reaction. I hope you have net connections - I need to know his reaction! Details are a MUST!!!! He is going to LURVE it.
You're much, much braver then I am.
Good luck.
xox
Well I hope he really, really appreciates your pain and suffering...
You are seriously WAY braver than me! Its not the pain its the embarassment. And ive given birth with like 5 people in the room all staring between my legs LOL
