i usually use an electric shaver to keep hairs at bay down in my nethers, but it's started to grow back quickly and itchy so i'm going to go for a proper wax. i normally get a regular bikini wax before holidays and use the electric shaver to trim inside the lips and 'underneath' but i'm due to have a baby in 5 weeks so think i'll just get it waxed as i can;t see what i'm at anymore!

i like a bit of a triangle but want the edges and everything else underneath off, inside the lips et al. so what do i ask for? (i had a brazilian once but it was only the outer lips done).

thanks a mil xx

I would describe exactly what you want, as you have done here, and then ask the salon what you should book, as many salons vary as to what they mean exactly by each wax.

My lady usually charges me for a Hollywood when I ask for what you have asked for - I think if the have to do any furtling around on the inner parts they will charge full whack. But just describe exactly what you want.

If you are that pregnant and not used to getting everything underneath waxed, you might find it is too painful. The underneath bits can hurt quite a lot if you're not used to it and when you are pregnant, especially towards the end, things can get a lot more tender.

thanks ladies :) and yes cardamom, i hear it can be pretty awful, maybe it'll encourage me to practise my breathing for labour!

I have a Brazilian and she takes everything off except a front triangle. Costs £20.
