hi, i'm off to a wedding next week and am having my bikini line waxed ( for the first time!!!!.......) followed by a st. tropez spray tan. i know ideally that you would have them on separate days but it's the only time i have someone to look after the children. Anyways, i asked the therapist if it would be ok, and she said that some clients mentioned that when they did this they sometimes had brown spots where the tan had entered the freshly waxed pores but that she "thought it washed away"??!! can anyone help?

no no no no
you will end up with lots of dark brown dots that look like george clooney's stubble

don't do it
wax at least 2 days beforehand!

you see, when i shave my legs and then do a st tropez, i do get those brown dots but they disappear as soon as i shower so i was kind of hoping the same would be true of waxing??!
