Just curious, how many of you have had this done. I am wondering, in comparison to having my eyebrows and upper lip waxed, what is the level of pain?

**LOL**

susan, i won't lie it hurts.....my eyebrows never have though.

you want to make sure you go to someone who has been doing it a while.....a slip up of wax a further bit south could lead to problems (ie - bathroom):ohmy:

the good thing - it lasts a LONG time before hair grows back & it grows in less.

It scares me to death, yet I am definitely thinking about having done. Does it help to have a couple drinks first to relax you?

I have only waxed my eyebrows and upper lip once because it hurt so much...but I get my Brazilian wax once a month :smile: I guess everybody's different...

All I can say is OUCH!! but worth it.

I go every 4 weeks! They can wax down there all they want, but touch my upper lip and all hell will break loose!

Of course, they make "No scream" cream to put down there to numb the area. You put it on a half hour before and you're good to go!

I did a brazillian wax about 2 months ago for the first time. It was quite painful however after I weighed the pros and cons, I was very happy with the results. The cons list was much shorter than the Pros. I am more than willing to go thru the pain every so often to achieve the results. I am going to take tylenol before my next appointment to see if that helps with the pain.

I have heard that the "no scream cream" doesn't work so great. I think I would be willing to try it though.

I say go for it.

I get my eyebrows waxed and I dont think it hurts. I want to punch the woman when she plucks though, I HATE that bit.

My upper lip - cant stand it. Hurts too much. Have a red moustache mark for days. Dont have much hair there anyway, only if I wear dark make up and I barely ever wear make up, so I dont care.

Brazillian - no thanks.

I get mine done every 3 to 4 weeks. Have a couple glasses of wine first! It's not that bad, it's way worth it and makes you feel cleaner and sexier! My husband loves it!

Not a chance! I'm sitting with my legs crossed and tightly clenched just reading this thread!

LOL Taps, I am right there with you!:thumbup:

Yes it hurts, but so worth it!! MUCH easier the second time around (and easier each time) as the hair is thinner and sparser each time.

Thanks for the reminder! *goes to book her next appointment*

Well, I think I am going to give it a try. I may do a couple of glasses of wine and tylenol first, lol. I just have to find where to go in my area.

Good for you! :thumbup: You'll love it!

I am not sure if it is the norm to do "sugar waxing" but that's what I had done and it wasn't so bad. So, I recommend it. I couldn't imagine having the regular waxing done down there! OUCH! Lip is much worse for me.

What's a sugar waxing??
