    OK, so you're gonna have to tell us more than that Rory. When, how did you know which place to go to, how much did it cost, how many times did you have to go back, etc?

    Also - what's the difference between Nair and Veet, and more importantly is there a hair removal wonder product that doesn't involve PAIN of any sort near your foofie (thanks Tanstar).

    The wax isn't that bad...a well trained beautician can get it done in less than 10 minutes. There's a place here where you can pay big dollars to get it done in 5 minutes!

    I used to get a wax every 4 weeks - same as legs and eyebrows - when I was earning well, but now I use hair removal creme. Have never had a problem with it...just don't leave it on for longer than the directions say otherwise you'll burn your skin.

    Can I ask (since we're all being honest lol) what about the inside bits, like inside the labia etc, is that still okay, or do you just not put cream there. I find I can shave as it's pretty much growing back 12 hours later So cream seems an easier alternitive. Also, anyone know if it's preggy safe?

    No, def not on the inside.

    It's not as effective as waxing as you don't get the inside bits, but looks fine from the outside :-P

    Yeah, shaving annoys me to no end - stubble and etc. Bah.

    From personal experience, keep the cream away from the labia and other delicate bits. It BURNS and then upsets the PH balance giving you a lovely dose of thrush. Just what you want when you have gone to all the trouble of defuzzing only to be off limits until you heal.

    Ahh cool, so i could do the outside and maybe shave the inside. Sorry for hijacking, just very curious. DF and I are interviewing for new jobs, so when we have more $$ I'll go the brazillian every 4-6 weeks

    some beauticians will not wax pregnant women. I have been given various reasons for this, from expended blood vessels in pregnancy making it more painful, to a fear of the pain starting labour. Others will do it no problems. You may have to shop around once you start showing.

    For the record, even when 40 weeks pregnant a brazillian did not send my pal into labour.

    Go the Brazilian (little landing strip down the front), or the XXX (EVERYTHING gone!). Ive had it done since I was 16 years old (XXX) and love it!!! It doesn't hurt at all (never has me anyway), you kinda have to expect some level of discomfort. oh, sorry just read you've had them! I still say have another go though
    However, when preggie I just used a Lady Remington, to keep things trimmed and very short. Well, actually my DP, did, I couldn't see jack from 7 months on!!! I was very pleased at the result! Looks the same, no pain, and probably quicker and easier to do yourself!!
    If I could I would laser my 'down south' region though I certainly would!!! Imagine that, a lifetime of no pubes!!! Perhaps I should hit up the family, partner and friends up for a laser voucher and appt as a gift for being an awesome mum, lover and woman!

    One of my friends had her DH trim her up before the birth of their baby and apparently he took a little too much off and she said she felt embarassed that perhaps the middies would think she was trying to be prepubesent haha.
    I just kept my mouth shut because I'm totally nude down Sth, which got me wondering do most ppl take it all off these days, leave a little landing strip, or just trim the bikini line?
    Are the MW and my Doc going to think I'm a freak because I have no hair downstairs? I prefer it and so does DH & a few yrs ago this was what all the girls had, but maybe things have changed.
    What do you do?
