Topic: Brazilians maybe TMI Posted: 12 January 2008 at 11:21pm |
Ok so am I going to get one a few days before I go and pick DH up however i'm a little worried about the scars I have and getting it done.
So for those that get it done would my scars I have on the pubic line be a problem when I get it waxed? The scars are laproscopy scars.

Have you had one before?
I can make one suggestion; this is what my beauty lady told me:
If you've got an electric razor, shave as close down to the skin as possible, then put baby powder on the area. It does work, and I don't think you'll have any discomfort. I don't have any scars there, but I can't imagine that there would be pain... how old are the scars?

Scars are coming up 3 years old now.
Dh has taken the electric razor away with him. I haven't had one before but done it with a razor before. This time I want it to lat a little bit longer.

I got some vouchers for Christmas to get one from DH...what a bit hint. So just how painful are they??? And what is the process??????
I was sort of annoyed at DH for getting me one, especially as I thought it was a voucher for a facial.

They don't nearly as much as you'd think.
I was more embarassed being naked from the waist down in front of the beauty therapist.
The results were certainly different.

Becks - I got my first brazilian done in September, and my lap was in July. I just asked her to be a little careful around the scar, but it hasn't been a problem at all.
The first one is the worst!! The more regularly you get them done the easier they are, as the hair grows back sparser each time. The one time I went 6 weeks between I felt it (my hair grows fast though) - almost like my first time (which was pretty bad because I had been shaving which makes the hair grow in funny directions) but now I get it done every 4-5 weeks and it's fine!!

Yep the best advice is to trim first so its not long hairs they are pulling out! And it is a bit embarrassing, but they should use towels to drape so you arent totally nakie. I have only ever had it done with a g-string on - some places I just used my own old yucky one, other places have paper disposable ones. Will definitely be doing it again once this baby is out

Eeek, Im too scared, tried to do it myself once with nads(just the front area and a little bit down the sides but not right underneath, was scared Id take away more than pubes!!!)
I got a REALLY bad ingrown hair right on my vjj flap(TMI!) and I couldnt hardly walk! It was hell  Id never wax down there again  omg the pain...I still cringe to think about it!
BUT, I am training to be a beauty Therapist and we ALWAYS put talc on the skin before we wax, it helps to stop the wax sticking to the skin.

Where did you go Fleury?
I think I might trim it before I go so there isn't that much to take off.

Gosh that's quite a big difference in price than up here... it was $65 first time and $55 thereafter. BUT if you get your eyebrows or any other part of you waxed you get the lessor free...
Make sure you get it done around 10 days after AF, doesn't hurt as much
