Wow thats a lot of hours sorry u had to due tests again. Its so nice to meet a fellow cosmetologist :) R u pre op or post? My date is Jan 8th.

I am pre. My date is January 11! I'm so excited, as I'm sure you are, also. :) and a fellow cosmetologist!!

At least I didn't have to take all the class hours again. That's what they stated initially but I appealed and it worked out. Taking the tests was the easy part. But, it's amazing the "textbook" material you don't account for daily. But, I passed them first time through and was grateful. :)

I got a Brazilian before my wedding day 7 yrs ago and it was awesome (not the experience but the effect.). Getting my shuns waxed hurt worse than the Brazilian. The lady did not make me feel very comfortable but it was well worth it. I would love to surprise my husband with it for our anniversary cruise in May. Hopefully I won't be as embarrassed then as u would now. :(

Brazillian is the way to go! I used to go every 4 weeks but after the hair stopped growing as quick, I moved to 5-6 weeks.

The hair must be at least 1/2" per my salon. If it is too long, then they will trim it. Also, some salons will offer some kind of cream to numb it a little. In my opinion, it wasn't worth it.

The first time, I was a bit skeptical but these ladies are professional. I love the outcome and I am thinking about adding my armpits to the regimen.

Oh, and wait 24hours before sex if possible. I believe my salon says no baths either for 24hrs (you can take a shower but don't scrub there)

Yes, Brazillian is great. I only go downtown if the streets are clean. But when it's clean, I'll take my time & enjoy the scenery :)

Oh no...not to you. Sugaring is great. I just meat any licensed esthetician using the amber colored honey wax to perform a bikini wax....well that's insane. Lol

I had that and it was a HORRIBLE experience. I had that with my very first wax and never went back. The other salon I went to used the strips and that would leave me raw and red down there, sex was definitely out of the question for a couple of days or at least till it scabbed over a little :/ I guess I will look into a salon that uses the blue wax, I'm gonna call around tomorrow.

Alright girls, I'm going to trust you and give it a try. Anything I need to know? I freaking hate shaving so I hope this is a better solution. Also anything I need to look out as far as salon cleanliness? Shouldn't they use a new stick every dip into the wax or something?

My suggestion for the first time is to find a nice spa on Yelp with good ratings. Don't go for the $35 chain places or nail salons for the first time. Spas are more relaxing and strive more on customer satisfaction than a salon where the prices are low.

My advice, be brave! You will feel so sexy! You will be glad you did it!!! :) If you find a good salon, the technician will e good enough that it doesn't hurt that bad. In my opinion waxing my eye brows feels exactly the same!

I'm not scared of the pain. I just worry about getting a rash or something. My skin is so sensitive, when I shave I get crazy bumps no matter how careful I am or what I use.

I've been waxing for years, I do it myself and have also been to a beauty therapist.

Find a good Beauty therapist, mine was an ex nurse - made me more comfortable!

It gets easier the more u do it and the results are fantastic. I'm currently experiencing a shrinking 'region' which is making it easier lol

At one stage I used to use an epilator...now if u can handle an epilator u can handle ANYTHING lol

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
