KWR: underarm waxing

vghjfcxgxfgdh, on March 2, 2017 at 9:59 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 8

I'm considering getting multiple areas waxed before my wedding. One wax I am really considering is an underarm wax, especially since I am wearing a sleeveless dress. The girl at European Wax Center said I have to grow my underarm hair out for at least THREE WEEKS before it can be waxed. I can just picture myself going in for the appointment with bushes underneath my arms lol. Has anybody ever done an underarm wax? Would you reccomend it? Or is shaving simply a better option? TIA!

    I shave my underarms in the winter but in the summer I only wax them. 3 weeks would probably be a lot. I feel like underarm hair grows faster than say your bikini or leg hair. You could probably get away with 2 weeks. The key is you want it to be about the length of a grain of rice.

    I love getting waxed. It lasts about 4 weeks and the hair grows back thinner over time for sure.

    Underarm is great. European Wax Center is the best place to me. Underarm lasts a while for me. Shaving....three days at most. Spring for the wax

    Two weeks seems a little more manageable, thanks everyone!

    I've been going to European Wax Center for a year and half now. I've never done underarms, but I recently asked my waxer about it. She recommended two weeks of growth as well!

    I've had my underarms done at European Wax Center before for a vaca--I think 2 weeks of growth sounds about right. it is 100% worth it, but be warned it hurts like a bitch!!!

    I've had lots of things wax and I'd say my underarms were probably the most painful so don't wait until the last minute to get it done.

    Ooof- I can't imagine under arms- I did a trial once w/ a friend in college with an at home kit- that shit hurt worse than my bikini line.

    Agree with LB- 3 weeks is probably do long- 2 is probably adequate- a grain of rice is the best unit of measure.
