Brazillian Waxing



Recommended Posts

**I've been wanting to get one as well but I scared a little! Im also wondering do they double dip the 'spatula' in the wax or do they change! I've read that some women got an STD after a Brazillian Waxing because of the double dipping! Did some of you ear the same thing? **

Sweetie,

I'm a licensed Nurse and Esthetician in Texas. If you ever see someone double dip even when they wax an eyebrow report it to the health dept. and don't let them touch you EVER... It is not sanitary at all... Now, I'm curious on this STD your talking about because I don't see how it could be possible at the temp. the wax was kept at. IMO that is someone who got the STD from another situation and choose to use waxing as a convenient explanation. Not saying that it could never ever happen but it's odd. I would be more worried about Staph from contaminated wax myself.. A professional should always have multiple sticks laying out on her/his cart or prep table. Always ask how they wax, a professional will never get upset for you questioning their procedures your safety...

Ladies and Gents don't be afraid this will only hurt for a minute :tongue2:

Have a lovely weekend

Ok Girls all the guys in the mens forum sent me over to request PICS.

LOL!! My partner was all "So can I watch?? Huh? PLEASE??" when I first went... Sadly for him, the salon would not allow that - not that I'd want him to watch - it's not exactly an elegant pose to be in and not half as sexy as it sounds, I'm sure!

It hurts. But it hurts worse if you go in there without preparing! I have long pubes (sorry if TMI) and if you can trim to about 1/4", it's slightly better.

My last Brazilian was a year and a half ago. I'm still getting ingrowns. I seem to have a problem with that, and they are NASTY. It was fun while it was bare, though.

Oh, and for your "big girls" question? I wasn't *all that* big when I went, but I was horrified when my esthetician gave me what looked like a washcloth to cover up! I had to ask for a "real" towel just for my insecurity...

Yeah...I think I'll stick with just shaving down there. haha! I'm not much for pain. I have used the Veet mouse on that area and it works very well with very little irritation.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
