    Brazillian :/

    I really thinking about going Brazillian I hate having hair down there it's just so annoying and itchy and uncomfortable >.< Normally I use hair removal cream but I can only really use it on the sides and top so I really want it ALL gone. Very scared though lol how much will it hurt/how long does it take to grow back/does it grow back all prickly? Any advice welcome! X

    I won't lie to you - a Brazillian can be quite painful. However, a useful tip is to ask the clinician to apply the strips to smaller areas at a time.

    The good news is that after the first few times, it gets much less painful. Usually hair grows back in around 4 weeks but some people can go as long as 6 weeks.

    Hope this helps.

            Try getting it done at a salon - I find it hurts MUCH less when someone else does it, and it's over with quicker as well. Then you dont have the annoying problem of stubble like when you shave/use creams.

              Yeah I might do that, it's just so much harder trying to do it yourself!

                True sometimes it's less painful when someone does it for you.

                  Getting all of your hair waxed can be very painful. Make sure your hair is grown out, but not too long. Also, if it's too short they won't be able to take the hair out.

                  Since then, waxing is a breeze: Eyebrows, legs, underarms, stomach, bikini line... all of that is nothing compared to a brazilian. I'm not trying to scare you, but it is the most painful place to get waxed in my experience, so be careful.

                    I've never been waxed "down there" - but honestly didn't think that you could use creams there.... Is it like Nair? I didn't think that you could use that in such "personal" areas.... would love to know what you use - am sick of shaving!!!!

                    Waxing scares me. I "pussied out" (great use of the phase by the way!) too last year. My friend and I had shots of liquor before we went to the salon, but even with the "Dutch Courage" we couldn't do it!

                    I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but there's just something about THAT area that makes me wince.
