I know some people will be turn off by this post but who cares? This is my blog! Our topic for today is - Brazilian Wax. For those who have no idea what it is all about, let me put it simply as this:

For ages, I've thought about the idea of Brazilian wax. However, i don't have a high tolerance level for pain. So, it had always only been a "thought". In recent years, if you readers notice, there's a growth in salons offering waxing services. We have popular salons like Strip , Honeypot and Pink Parlour and the list goes on. For beginners, it's hygenic as less dirt is trap, right?

Another reason is that you won't want to leave your pubic hair on the toilet seat. Its gross right? Imagine someone before you left it there and you see it upon entering the cubicle! Yucks!

Yet another reason for brazilian waxing is this - the clean look. Imagine you're at the beach enjoying the suntan and you see a chio bu. (girls also look at pretty girls as well). Chio bu, face very pretty, tall, figure very good...then-> you see overgrowths! What a turn off.

After all the above reasons, I am not saying that all women should go for brazilian wax this very moment. But women should really consider about it. I know the next question would be " how about the pain level?"

Let me speak from my experience. Earlier I mentioned in the post that I don't deem myself to have a high tolerance level for pain. When i experience pain, I SCREAM. Put it simply, think of the waxing as a sudden slap in the face. It's just about that. Perhaps, i should put it this way-> different areas have different sensitivity level. Some areas will be more painful than the other but its bearable. Trust me. When the wax is yanked out, its just like a sudden shock, but the pain doesn't stays. A session at the salons which I mentioned above takes 15-30 minutes.

What about the wax application? How does it feel? Ok..for brazilian waxing, hot wax is used. How does it feel like? Anyone knows the feeling of doing hand/leg paraffin? Yup, that's the feeling. How is it done? The therapist will dip a wooden waxing stick into a pot of hot wax and then spread it onto your skin and hair. She will then apply a cloth strip over the still-warm wax, pressing firmly so the cloth, hair and wax adhere to one another. When the wax has cooled, she will pull the strip off, in the opposite direction of your hair growth, pulling the hair out by the roots.

After the waxing is done, the therapist will tweeze any stray hairs and spread any soothing lotion over the waxed areas. Yup and that's it..you're done!! Feeling clean and good!

1 word of caution to the women out there. Never never ever try to DIY. Our bodies are just not positioned to do this ourselves. Come on, 1 session of it cost not more than $50 at most salons, unless you are going for the big players and want to shape it like putting some alphabets. For myself , i paid $41 for my virgin experience. I actually browse through forums and read up on recommendations before I decided where I wanted to go and i strongly recommend this lady - E'zen Goh.

Hers is a home based service and she's really attentive. For my virgin session, she took about 1 hour. Getting me prepared and throughout the whole session, she was professional yet very personal and attentive. She really diverted my attention and I must say, the pain level was like 2/10. So definitely, I'll visit her again.

Any ladies out there want her details. Well here it is E'zen Goh from Black Peony.
