Good evening women's health forum, this is my first time posting and I'm in dire need of an answer.

Wednesday afternoon I went for my first Brazilian wax- had all hair (except anus) removed. It has been understandably sore since then, but now I have discovered that around the top of my vagina, on the lips around and above my clitoris there is extremely dry and cracking skin. In one area, is is even bleeding slightly.

I'm sorry for the graphics, but I'm freaking out here because I think my Brazilian was botched. Badly.

What the is going on with my vagina???

Use Valesline. It'll relieve your irritated and dry skin. The skin in that area is very delicate and wax removes some skin. Try using dry epilation in the future. I use one of those igia epilator machines.
