I had it waxed "down there" once and one side only. I bled and bruised. Damn, I've had three kids but waxing "down there" was painful!! sad.gif I only let her do one side, so for a while I lopsided laugh.gif

I had a somewhat similar experience. Thank god I didn't bleed, though. Ouch!

 

It's still better than shaving...just too damned expensive.

I have my own wax machine, but I am to chicken to do it myself. But, I also don't want anyone else going there and indulging in hair pulling.

The first strip is the WORST. After that the pain subsides to mere torture.

You made me laugh.gif though at you being lopsided laugh.gif trink39.gif

Yeah, it was like a New Romantic hairstyle for my nether regions!! laugh.gif

 

I just shave now, but it does tend to give you that 'speckled' look!! wacko.gif

laugh.gif laugh.gif

 

Well Trace, that 'speckled' look is much better then all that pain...plus expense...plus being lopsided tongue.gif wink.gif

 

We just can't win this one! no.gif laugh.gif

what about creams like nair?

Ahh!

 

First off, us girls with really sensitive skin can't use stuff like that anyways -- it burns. It hurts when I use it on my legs -- I can't imagine what it would be like to ... *squirms just thinking about it* The chemicals! Ah!

 

Even for the girls who aren't especially sensitive-skinned, it would surely still hurt. I think, anyways; I guess I can't say for sure since I'm sensitive everywhere, but I would think it would since that area is usually really sensitive.

 

I know this girl who thought that was a good idea and she accidentally ... put too much on or something, and it sort of slid somewhere, I guess, and she was in this burning pain for a really long time.

 

Not a good place for chemicals. *shakes head*

holy shit, this may be the funniest thing i've read in a long f***ing time joker.gif applaudit.gif

 

shave with the growth, after a long hot bath, and you won't be speckled smile.gif try a shaving oil instead of a lotion as well, and make sure the razor is very sharp... oh, and be sure to exfoliate well before shaving and use one of the ingrown preventor products, like bliss' ingrown hair eliminating pads

All hair removal methods have tricked women with their promises of easy,

 

 

painless removal - The epilady, scissors, razors, Nair and now...the

wax.

 

 

 

 

 

My night began as any other normal weeknight. Come home, fix dinner,

play

 

 

with the kids. I then had the thought that would ring painfully in my

mind

 

 

for the next few hours: "Maybe I should pull the waxing kit out of

 

 

the medicine cabinet." So I headed to the site of my demise:

 

 

the bathroom.

 

 

 

 

 

It was one of those "cold wax" kits. No melting a clump of hot

 

 

wax, you just rub the strips together in your hand, they get warm and

you

 

 

peel them apart and press them to your leg (or wherever else) and you

pull

 

 

the hair right off. No muss, no fuss. How hard can it be? I mean, I'm

not

 

 

a genius,

 

 

 

 

 

but I am mechanically inclined enough to figure this out. !

 

 

 

 

 

(YA THINK!?!)

 

 

 

 

 

So I pull one of the thin strips out. Its two strips facing each

 

 

other stuck together. Instead of rubbing them together, my genius kicks

 

 

in so I get out the hair dryer and heat it to 1000 degrees. ("Cold

 

 

wax," yeah...right!) I lay the strip across my thigh. Hold the skin

 

 

around it tight and pull. It works! OK, so it wasn't the best feeling,

 

 

but it wasn't too bad. I can do this! Hair removal no longer eludes me!

 

 

I am She-rah, fighter of all wayward body hair and maker of smooth skin

 

 

extraordinaire.

 

 

 

 

 

With my next wax strip I move north. After checking on the kids, I sneak

 

 

back into the bathroom, for the ultimate hair fighting championship. I

 

 

drop my panties and place one foot on the toilet. Using the same

 

 

procedure, I apply the one strip across the right side of my bikini

line,

 

 

covering the right half of my *hoo-hoo* and stretching down to the

inside

 

 

of my butt cheek (Yes, it was a long strip) I inhale deeply and brace

myself....RRRRIIIPPP!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

I'm blind!!! Blinded from pain!!!!....OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! Vision

 

 

returning, I notice that I've only managed to pull off half the

 

 

strip. OH NO! What have I done???!!! Another deep breath and

 

 

RRIIP! P!! Everything is swirly and spotted. I think I may pass

out...must

 

 

stay conscious...Do I hear crashing drums??? Breathe, breathe...OK, back

!

 

 

to normal.

 

 

 

 

 

I want to see my trophy - a wax covered strip, the one that has caused

 

 

me so much pain, with my hairy pelt sticking to it. I want to revel in

 

 

the glory that is my triumph over body hair. I hold up the strip!

There's

 

 

no hair on it. Where is the hair??? WHERE IS THE WAX???

 

 

 

 

 

Slowly I ease my head down, foot still perched on the toilet. I see the

 

 

hair. The hair that should be on the strip. I touch. I am touching wax.

 

 

WHAT?! I run my fingers over the most sensitive part of my body,

 

 

which is now covered in cold wax and matted hair.

 

 

 

 

 

Then I make the next BIG mistake...remember my foot is still propped up

 

 

on the toilet? I know I need to do something. So I put my foot down. My

 

 

LIFE FLASHES BEFORE ME!!!!!! I hear the slamming of a cell door.

 

 

*hoo-hoo*? Sealed shut! Butt?? Sealed shut!

 

 

 

 

 

I penguin walk around the bathroom trying to figure out what to do and

 

 

think to myself "Please don't let me get the urge to poop. My head

 

 

may pop off!"

 

 

 

 

 

What can I do to melt the wax? Hot water!! Hot water melts wax!!!

 

 

 

 

 

I'll run the hottest water I can stand into the bathtub, get in,

 

 

immerse the wax-covered bits and the wax should melt and I can gently

wipe

 

 

it off, right??? WRONG!!!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

I get in the tub - the water is slightly hotter than that used to

 

 

torture prisoners of war or sterilize surgical equipment - I sit.

 

 

 

 

 

Now, the only thing worse than having your nether regions glued together

 

 

is having them glued together and then glued to the bottom of the

tub...in

 

 

scalding hot water. Which, by the way, doesn't melt cold wax.

 

 

 

 

 

So, now I'm stuck to the bottom of the tub as though I had

cement-epoxied

 

 

myself to the porcelain!!

 

 

 

 

 

God bless the man who had convinced me a few months ago to have a phone

 

 

put in the bathroom!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

I call my friend, thinking surely she has waxed before and has some

secret

 

 

of how to get me undone. It's a very good conversation starter - "So,

 

 

my butt and who-ha are glued together to the bottom of the tub!"

 

 

 

 

 

There is a slight pause. She doesn't know any secret tricks for removal

 

 

but she does try to hide her laughter from me. She wants to know exactly

 

 

where the wax is located, "Are we talking cheeks or hoo-ha?"

 

 

 

 

 

She's laughing out loud by now...I can hear her. I give her the

 

 

rundown and she suggests I call the number on the side of the box.

YEAH!!!!!

 

 

Right!! I should be the joke of someone else's night.

 

 

 

 

 

While we go through various solutions. I resort to scraping the wax off

 

 

with a razor. Nothing feels better then to have your girlie goodies

covered

 

 

in hot wax, glued shut, stuck to the tub in super hot water and then

dry-shaving

 

 

the sticky wax off!!

 

 

 

 

 

By now the brain is not working, dignity has taken a major hike and I'm

 

 

pretty sure I'm going to need Post-Traumatic Stress counseling for this

 

 

event.

 

 

 

 

 

My friend is still talking with me when I finally see my saving

 

 

grace....the lotion they give you to remove the excess wax. What do I

really

 

 

have to lose at this point? I rub some on and OH MY GOD!!!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

The scream probably woke the kids and scared the dickens out of my

friend.

 

 

It's sooo painful, I but I really don't care. "IT WORKS!! It works!!"

 

 

I get a hearty congratulation from my friend and she hangs up.

 

 

 

 

 

I successfully remove the remainder of the wax and then notice to my

grief

 

 

and despair....THE HAIR IS STILL THERE.......ALL OF IT!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

So I recklessly shave it off. Heck, I'm numb by now. Nothing ! hurts. I

could

 

 

have amputated my own leg at this point.

 

 

 

 

 

Next week I'm going to try hair color......

OK AGP, advice please.  How can I wax "down there" without me crawling on the ceiling?? wacko.gif

Painkillers.

There's also a topical ointment that's used on especially difficult kids when they get shots...put on hour to half hour before you go to wax, completely numbs the area...should do the job. Don't quote me on that, haven't actually tried it myself. May be a little odd to be numb down there like that though. ohmy.gif

Painkillers.

Yup. Make sure the person doing it knows the right technique so it reduces the pain quotient considerably. Its always going to be painful, just think, those hair follicles are loaded with nerve endings and blood supply. It's gonna smart.

ohmy.gif I don't think we'll do this way of making things nice in that area. no.gif

 

CeeJ said something about a topical painkiller also, so maybe if we run across it, we'll think about it again, but till then it's back to razors and trimmers. Uggh.

 

Maybe we'll give the creams a try again. For me it would be a first.
