Default Brazilian waxing?!
I think it's called that at least. Waxing it all off is what I'm referring to.

I'm wondering where to get this type of job done. What type of professional does one contact?

Yes it will be painful, but when you live in chronic pain daily, momentary pain doesn't sound so bad

I've done the eye brows. I've even done the top lip.......but the LOT?

All I can say is that you are a braver woman than I am.

Ok I've done it. *insert blushing here in case any of the guys read this*

Most better spas will have a waxing person that will do it.

It hurt but the end result was worth the pain.

That's what I'm saying. End result is worth the temporary pain of the situation.

If you got it done more than once, did it actually become less painful with each follow up visit?

OMG....I cannot imagine the pain. How do you stand it?

I'd probably come right up off the table! Temporary pain? Maybe.....but aren't you sore afterwards? I've had a baby without pain meds but I don't think I could do this.

Just whatever you do don't get one of those home kits. LOL nothing is worse than not getting the hair stuck at the root and pulling, OMG!!! Did this just last week myself.... I only did the sides thank god, and it didn't hurt too bad except not getting part of it stuck right so that I yanked the ends of the hair on one side :-P If you do it really fast the pain subsides pretty quick.

I read back through this thread and it has me laughing! I'm still too chicken to ever consider this. I wonder who the first person was to try this? They must have nerves of steel.
