I just got a bit bored, covered my legs in nair and then thought 'what the hell' and slathered it all over me bits.

It's great. HUGELY satisfying to just pull the hair out in clumps.

Looks a bit odd though, have never had a brazillian or anything so is all new to me.

Make me wonder why you would have a brazillian actually when you can just put a bit of cream on, read a trash mag whislt perched on the edge of the bath, and then shower it off.

No pain, and cheap.

I accidentally gave myself a brazilian once. I had immacced my bikini line and sat on the edge of the bath with my legs closed reading a magazine for the recommened time.

Sadly, I am ample of thigh and where I had my legs pressed together I sort of errr... pushed... the immac up onto my fanjo area. When I showered the immac off I lost rather more hair than I had anticipated...

And now I've finished crying with laughter, I will be locking myself in the bathroom for the next 15 mins and slapping on the Veet.

Am re-training as a beautician in September and am a bit worried about butt splaying waxing, it wasn't mentioned on the curriculum?

Honeydragon · 06/08/2011 16:50

Ok where's Getorf.... It's left me with stubble! I have a fanjo like Desperate Dans chin!

Right I've ignored the instructions and whacked another load on, am not burning so far

aquos · 06/08/2011 17:55

Oh, soooo smooth. It worked. Took two applications though and I'm a little warm around my nether region, but not actually burning. Overall a good result. Thanks for the tips and the laugh.

TanyaBranning · 06/08/2011 18:10

That is so gross, sorry. It is so chemically and minging and you just put it all over your fanjo and arse. Yuck!

Yay, all smooth here to. And after the second application, I am happy to report my fanjo hasn't melted and the children all have their hair Smile

Honeydragon · 06/08/2011 18:27

Tanya ...I'll take stinky chemicals over skin shredding wax that leave my fanjo bleeding and red. Then it goes flaky and the hairs ingrow. Leprosy of the fadge is not a good look.

skyebluepink · 06/08/2011 18:37

Not all waxers get you to splay. Some do it with your leg over your head and some won't go there. I'm always disappointed when my bumhole doesn't get waxed and I don't feel like I can really ask them if they don't!

redheadbedhead · 06/08/2011 18:49

this is the funniest thread ever Grin

Believable · 06/08/2011 19:12

giggling so much I have sore sides.

I do this too, but generally swish over the razor with the stubborn stumble. It never really occurred to me to go a second time. I'll be doing that in future.

I do the whole shebang. I'm a hairy beast so that is from lower back(I kid you not, I have a bushy tail!) up to and including toes

Flumptious · 06/08/2011 19:31

Great thread!!

Can I really really do it a second time and not get burnt??? I've just had a go, as I just happened to have some veet sensitive sitting in the cupboard for just that purpose, and it's only taken some off.

I've had a little peek with a mirror and I look ridiculous!!! I'm sure I wasn't as wrinkly as that beforehand and the hairs I've missed are in the deepest crevices available so I'm a bit scared of put cream down there without the go ahead.

I've been avoiding waxing as I haven't had it done down there since bc and am worried the beautician would faint. Thought this would be the answer to my prayers and now I'm not so sure!

skybluepink - "I'm always disappointed when my bumhole doesn't get waxed"

REALLY?!?!?

Honeydragon · 06/08/2011 19:41

I left a landing strip, but did the undercarriage and it was fine, even after the second attempt. Well it could have a delayed reaction I guess but it's lovely and smooth Smile

GetOrfMoiSamsungFridgeFreezer · 06/08/2011 19:42

"Some do it with your leg over your head"

What the jeff?

What the bleeding Jeff?

They expect you to do contortions of a russian gymnast of the 80s level KNICKERLESS in front of a bored 19 year old waxer with false eyelashes on?

I would rather bend and splay.

Can safely report that I have had no regrowth so far, and I am Confused at you lot with your two application shenanigans. Do you lot have brillo pad pubes?

Mine are clearly in the aforementioned holocaust pubescent category. Honest after the first application my bits should've been on the Dandy with a cow pie!

MorningCoffee · 06/08/2011 19:58

This thread is hilarious, was just telling dp, he says i need to sort mine out, i told him i have it's just got a landing strip, to which he replied more like a crash landing strip you need to sort it out ha ha ha.

GetOrfMoiSamsungFridgeFreezer · 06/08/2011 20:00

lol at crash landing strip

OP posts:
skyebluepink · 06/08/2011 20:11

Grumpla, yes!

Let me explain:
I had my first waxing experience with an Iranian -total hair removal is very much part of their culture so she was fast and strict and brutal. And very unsqueamish. I had no idea there was hair where she went and it felt so clean and smooth etc. Anyway from that point I've no way of knowing if someone will BH wax or not beforehand so it's the bumhole waxing lottery for me.

Getorf as long as they wax my BH I'll do anything they want

Flumptious · 06/08/2011 20:23

I'm doing it!!!

Going to leave it for 4 mins then try again.

Am tingling slightly, not in an entirely unpleasant way I might add.

Have sudocrem at the ready in case of emergency.

Flumptious · 06/08/2011 20:26

Skybluepink I had a waxing experience like that and although I was slightly shocked at the time, I always hankered after the clean feeling I had afterwards. We moved away and I've not been to a salon that does extreme waxes since. Like you say, if they don't offer, you can't exactly ask!

ElectricSoftParade · 06/08/2011 20:49

Well, after reading this thread and being a bit curious, I thought I would give it a go.

I am Shock and Blush at both the amount of hair which came away and how bloody daft I look. Feels nice though Grin.

This will be a very big surprise for DH. Hoping he will be Grin but have a feeling he will be more Shock Shock Shock!

GetOrfMoiSamsungFridgeFreezer · 06/08/2011 20:53

Where did you lot have Iranian style waxes then?

Isn't it agonising?. What do you do with the (ahem) lips area? Do you have to hold them taught in strange contortions like when you have your eyebrows threaded?

Oh dear god good job I am a regular mner because I sound like a right perve Grin

Well mine was in wymondham, Norfolk of all places. Not where you were expecting possibly! I did nothing, she held the flaps taut. Eek! I closed my eyes and waited til it was over.
I'm still not as hair free as I'd like after my 2nd application but is maybe due to having hairs of differend lengths. Some plucked, some shaved. Wish I had normal pubes.
