Who seriously has that much hair down there to warrant such torture????
I'm not an especially furry girl or anything but I can totally see the merit in waxing. What, are you working with like, a few pathetic wisps or something? LOL
But I dunno about all this waxing business. Is it that difficult to shave? It takes like 10 seconds. Sure, it's not perfect, but it doesn't cost $80/month or feel like death either. Plus, I have other things to worry about like...oh...I dunno. My life.0 -
If you have a high tolerance for ongoing pain you can tolerate it. Some ladies I heard say if you get it done often it will hurt less or maybe you are semi-numb to the pain. Umm one time that's it I was really angry and wanted to kick the lady :-/.0

So f*cking painful!!!! Any chick that says it isn't, is either lying or botoxes their crotchal region... It's worth it though.. I'd just save "intimacy" for the following day or your vag will look angry........ :mad:0

Perhaps the men should weigh in on this too?
Let's just say that even taking a band aid off makes me cowering in fear and pain.0 -
Save the pain a break out a razor.0
-
ha ha I meant maybe we should ask the men if they have a preference. Although I'm thinking that given the opportunity they wouldn't be too picky :O)0
-
I haven't gotten one but I'm thinking I might just prefer the laser hair removal surgery to avoid all that pain and then the repeat of it every time I want to get it done afterwards. Of course I'm 100% positive that my wallet wouldn't appreciate the price of such a process.
Lazer hurts. When they tell you its going to feel like a rubber band flicking you skin...THEY LIE!
Having said that apart from it being expensive it really works well.0 -
I don't know that the pain would be worth it. probably wouldn't ever get one.Can I get the women to chime in for the guys... Do you prefer natural, manscaped, or totally bare? Thanks for your input!
As for this one.. I prefer manscaped. lol0 -
Like I always say.... If there's grass on the field, mow it!0
-
I'd love to get one. Tired of shaving every other day, ugh.
PS - had a friend say sex with a woman who's brazilian-ified...is amazing. I can imagine! No chaffing if I'm on top! Really want one but haven't had the money to throw down, nor the desire to grow it completely out just to get one. Oie.0 -

Perhaps this is TMI but though the razor is cheaper and less painful the regrowth is awful! I'll take a few minutes of ouch over stubble any day!0 -
I have been doing it for years. I think the first time is the worst, if you keep doing it regularly the hair is more fine & way more sparse so it doesn't hurt as much if you keep doing it. I normally get it done every 6-8 weeks, and I notice if I go longer in between sessions it does hurt more, but it is tolerable. I think it also depends on the kind of wax that is used, my girl does the kind of wax that hardens and then is ripped off, no cloth strips w/ the sticky wax ( I had it done once that way and it was more painful, left me bleeding & bruised!).0

Trim your hair to a 1/4 inch, take Ibupropen 30 mins before, and have it done just after the start of your cycle. The first time is worst, subsequent times, not too bad.0

Unless I am getting paid bookoo money to be a model naaaaaw I ain't doing it....shave a tad maybe but no ripping!!!!!!!!!!0

Yes it is worth it (for both partners), yes it hurts, but THIS is the best advice regarding how to minimize the pain.0 -

I had laser hair removal on my face....not only did it not work...it was the most painful thing I ever had done! It literally brought tears to my eyes. I can't even imagine having it done "down there"....0 -
the pain goes away quickly. it's the ingrowns that come about 5 days later that make it unbearable. invest in a 5 blade razor and shaving cream - it's easier and save you the humiliation on spreading for a stranger.0
-
I gotta talk my husband into paying for me to get this done. I shave EVERYDAY. Would love to be smooth without shaving all the time.0
-
OK, so all you ladies that get them done, how do you cope with ingrown hairs? I used to epilate my legs and the sides of the bikini area but the ingrowns drove me nuts!!!
Also, is the hard wax the best way to go?0 -

In my previous experience, freshly waxed seems to be softer and smoother than freshly shaven BUT as you point out I am not one to complain either way! That being said, I dont know if I have what it takes to wax. I have no problems trimming things up with clippers and hitting some of the "low lying" areas with a razor but the wax might just be too much...0 -
lol @ taking pain killers before a brazilian.0
-
done it a handful of times.... wasn't too bad, imo. worth it -- hell yes.0
-
I couldn't go without my beloved Brazilian! It stings a bit, but I really don't think it's that bad. I'm weird though...when I'm nervous I get serious cases of the giggles. My esthetician thinks it's hilarious because I giggle through the entire thing, so that's kind of embarrassing, but the job itself is so worth it!0

Hurts like HELL (especially if you have coarser hair), but I totally recommend it! I would also try laser hair removal - considerably more costly, but soooo worth it in the end!0
-
How long does it last? I don't wanna go through the pain just for it to last a week......0
-
The inner areas hurt the most (a 2inch wide strip that starts right above the button & ends just past the opening). Other than that it's really not that bad. But those inner areas KILL. The pain amazingly only lasts a split second then rapidly goes away! And yes, you will feel way lighter. For 12-48 hours after (depends on how it feels) I reccomend wearing pants with stretch-lululemons. Baggy clothes will cause chaffing, & jeans will just be plain uncomfortable.
Also: make sure your waxer is clean, professional, and up on the latest techniques. She should be asking you to pull your skin taught & should use a pot of wax that is plugged into the wall & cloth strips. She should also use powders and creams to soothe.
The very first time hurts the most & you will notice hair growing back right away-but only a few hairs. It took about 6 weeks before I started noticing a fair amount of hair, & 2.5-3 months before it was fully grown back. I really do think it's worth it! But everybody is different, my friend's hair grows back in only 2 months!0 -
I don't know how you'd feel 5 pounds lighter, but I find it much preferable to shaving. It hurts. But if you keep up with it, it's fine.0
