    OMG, first ever successful self-bikini Wax!

    Ladies,
    I have tried waxing my own coot 3 times with horrendously messy and painful results...

    Until now.

    I bought the Veet in a yellow box. It comes with a pre-wax spray that feels like Lidocaine. Tip: apply it with a cotton ball as per directions. I sprayed it directly onto my bikini area and it sank into my pink bits. Burn baby burn!

    The wax is already on the strip and doesn't need heating.

    It also comes with an oily rag to wipe off excess wax.

    It took almost all the hair off of bikini. I had to tweeze some myself, but that always occurs.

    I had less luck on the pubic mound, but I'm sure it can be good with some practice.

    Best of all, it wasn't super painful and more importantly, it wasn't MESSY!

    Only $10, good deal.

    I tired that too but I'm way to hairy down there and it didn't work for me. I have thick, corse, balck hair down there and it wouldn't come out. I was more frustrated when I was done because I was so soar that I just called the wax lady and went to her instead. I'm glad to hear that it worked for you Katrine. :o)

    Just a note: I usually shave down there so the hair was not only like 1/3 of an inch long, maybe 1/2 an inch at most. Cut down the hair before you wax, but not too too much or it won't pull out.....

    I know this is gonna sound weird but whenever I try to self wax, I get freaked out and usually I pull it off to slow. I am glad it worked for you though.

    I tried to self wax one time... I started off on the wrong part the pubic mound. That was my last self wax that left me with one strip done. From then on I just go to the salon since the waxing lady is so much better at not hearing my cries of pain when she tweezes after the waxing session.
    Katrine... you are one crazy girl to be able to complete a self waxing session.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    I'm nervous to wax too ! I usually just shave - pluck. Plucking hurts but the hair grows back in thinner, slower and it stays smooth . When I tried waxing I didnt do it right and pulled too slowly cuz I was so nervous . I heard (not sure if its true ) that my friends mother pulled it off too hard and some skin came up. I doubt that products nowadays could do that (LAWSUIT). I'd like to try waxing again soon , maybe I'll get my friend , whos been offering to do it for me .

    if you wax and skin comes off or you get a bruise it means that the waxing procedure was wrong. If it's done right it is less painful, more effective, and the results last longer.

    Also, when you wax you should tweeze soon after you see new growth because your chances of permanently damaging and destroying the hair follicle are the best when the hair is still growing.

    I'm trying to wax myself, but it's so painful i have to do it 3 days apart... hahaha my lips are hairy but the top is baby smooth

    That's so funny 'cause I tried doing a self waxer yesterday and failed miserably. I just couldn't get any hair off and I was left with sticky lips. Next time, I'll try that brand. I'm writing it down now.

    Hehe sorry sticky lips! Oh my....I was thinking of trying it for that I hate hair in all. I hate my own woman fur and want it all gone. I do like that they have the numbing spray junk or at least I hope thats what that is.

    ok girls, I just bought the veet wax strips in the yellow box tonight and waxed myself with pretty goddam good results. I'm leaving the ass area to a professional, but I got the sides and most of the mons and some of the outer labia.

    Another tip, if you get the big strips (apparently they sell smaller strips specifically for the bikini) cut them into fourths. In other words, cut a strip in half crosswise and then lengthwise. You can reuse each strip several times (of course each succesive time takes off less hair) I found reusing was best left to pick up strays that were left from the original waxed part.

    oh yeah, and expect some blood droplets.

    Man, after getting it done by a pro, I could never see myself doing it myself. That second after the rip it the worst moment of my life. If someone wasn't doing it, I don't think I would be able to continue.

    Plus, that shit always sticks to my skin and not the hair.

    That would be me, too!

    I don't know anyone who is 100% satisfied with results they get from home waxing stuff. I just leave mine to the pros.

    OMG - this just brought flashbacks of my mom and her friend laying on the kitchen floor waxing eachothers bikini lines when I was like 12... I thought it was so weird them ripping out eachothers hair and the cries of pain....
