Kathryn, on September 3, 2014 at 6:29 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 24

I've waxed legs, eyebrows, lip, and arms but I have never got a bikini wax before and I want a Brazilian (go big or go home!) Any waxers out there with some advice or prewax ritual I should do tonight?

    Advil ~30 minutes before appointment.

    try to relax and not tense-up (getting tense can make it a little worse.)

    there is nothing dignified about the process. just go with it.

    wear clothing that will "breath" after.

    Make sure your body wash is not anti-bacterial. If it isn't, pick up some baby wash. It can irritate your skin further resulting in bumps and sometimes sores.

    Exfoliate a bit before you go, take some motrin, anti inflammatory, before hand. relax and enjoy. wear a long skirt or dress, no undies.

    I went for my first Brazilian in like 6 years today. I took Advil before...I think that helped. It does hurt, but nothing you can't handle. I second the no undies or really loose cotton undies after. It's hours later and my bum still hurts a bit, so I just keep taking Advil! Good luck--you can do it, and you feel soooo clean afterwards!!

    Wear a skirt or dress. For some reason I feel less exposed when I have a dress or skirt on bc I'm technically not removing anything but my underwear. And believe me, you'd rather have a skirt on than pants after pulling hair outta your crotch.

    Too late, but advice is to get sugared, not waxed.

    I want to do this too. FH is not a fan, but I think I could convert him. I'm being totally serious here. Should I trim before I go?

    Try sugaring. Waaaay better than waxing in my opinion!

    Keep breathing! That is the thing I forget to do when I get waxed and of course a couple of anti inflammatory.

    Nevermind waxing and sugaring.... Laser hair removal is the way to go.... Hairfree carefree and way less painful !!!
