Is it really necessary to go to a salon for a brazilian wax?

Or are there any home kits that work?

I'm really getting sick of shaving and I feel like a wax might be the way forward. I'd just much prefer to do it myself than have someone else do it.

Does your hair need to be a certain length for it to be waxed?

Mishaps where did anyone write that they wax for their partner Confused Shockingly, single women (as the op has said she is) like to wax and have beauty treatments etc for themselves not everything revolves around pleasing a man...I shave and it isn't for my DP as he couldn't care less whether I do or not.

OP I've just braved having my eyebrows waxed, which didn't hurt at all, but I'm working myself up for the nether regions!

And yes I think it has to be a certain length, my friend that has it done is always saying she has to grow it out to get it waxed off again.

I have the full Hollywood. Nothing to do with the man either feminism chatterers... I like it like that, especially when It's summer and hot. Don't do it if you are near or on your period. Christ it's so much worse. I would perhaps do the bikini line myself. Maybe even the underneath. The top of the labia just on the inside makes me cringe at the thought of doing that myself WineWineWinei salute those that do it themselves!!

Could somebody explain the nad's bikini wax to me? If I'm understanding it right, you just leave the wax on for 30 seconds then remove it. So you don't use waxing strips with it?

Never mind. Just watched a demo on youtube. You let the wax dry and then rip it off.

Sounds painful Shock.
