    Default how often do you get it done?

    hello...just would like to know...if you get a brazillan wax(with just a little landing strip), how long does it last for? like how often do you have to get it done? i know its different for everyone, but approximently?

    also, is it better to go to a fancier salon for more $$$
    or an average salon for cheaper?

    i called an average salon here and they said it was 50 bucks to do it.

    i heard it can leave red bumps, but do those go away?

    thanks so much! i asked this before in a post, but didnt get the exact answers i needed...so thanks to anyone who replies

    huh. probably once every month or two depending on how fast your hair grows.
    then after awhile you'll go less and less because since you're ripping it from the root the hairs will come in finer and take longer to grow.

    I would say for your first one, go to a good salon, but really, you shouldn't be spending more than 80ish including tip. I think I went to a good salon in CA and it was 30 not including tip.

    Since you're in a huge tourist trap, why not check the resort spas? I'd price check a lot more because 50 at an average place sounds like a lot.

    My wax lady told me the standard is that the hair must be 1/4 of an inch long. Sheeesh and that drives me nuts! I don't get landing strip tho... If I'm waxing, it's all goin'!!!

    Little bumps... no not for me, but my old roommate did... but just for a short while (like a few hours) after having it done.

    So worth it!

    so with a brazilian wax...do they wax the WHOLE thing? i would imagine the skin actually around your vagina would be too sensitive for waxing. ive never had one but i was thinking about it.

    I get waxed about once a month. The hair needs to be atleast a 1/4 on an inch to come out efficiently. At the Spa I go to a brazillian is getting it all off. To avoid getting red bumps I exfoliate every three days and swab the area with witch hazel twice a day. I think the original Brazillian was only leaving a landing strip. I hate getting waxed, but I hate shaving more. I also seem to get more ingrowns from shaving. When I first started dancing I never got anything waxed. Now in addition to getting my hootchie waxed I also get my eyebrows, sideburns, and upper lip waxed. What I look for in a salon if cleanliness, and someone who does a lot of brazilians. The wax pod area should be clean and not sloppy with a whole bunch of sticks in it. They should use a clean stick everytime they dip into the waxing pod. There is a real technique to it that if done right will help it hurt at least a small amount less. But it will still hurt just not as much as you think it will.

    I was actually wondering the same thing. I have never had a brazilian wax, but would like to try it.

    It's actually not as bad as you'd think!
    I think it hurts more on top than it does on the lips.

    No I never have mainly because it would be like a $120 dollars.The more area they have to wax the more expensive it is.

    Me too! WHen you do the waxing your self ! I found out it dose not hurt as much! I just recommend whe you wax your self, do it over a twin size flat sheet. I wazxx whenever needed!( my hair grow faster on certain parts of my body) For hard to reach area, I do have a friend help! I know it sounds wierd but we help each other out in this way and we save money.

    I have had the brazillian waxing done and I love it. I don't find that it hurts much at all. Kinda like ripping off a band-aid to me. I didn't find that the anal area hurt either. I think the whole process is awkward though...putting your legs here and there and all around to get everything! I was surpirsed at the cost you gals have paid though. I go to a good salon here in my town, and they will wax your area for $20! They are great, I have been going to them for at least 12 yrs!

    have been gettin brazillians for years!!! the best-it just feels better.

    btw...

    XXX wax = brazillian wax which is actually with the landing strip
    'all off' is a XXXX wax
    - most salons charge more for a XXXX wax than a standard brazillian

    and a great cream for the bumps (i used to get them all the time) is elle bache creme intex no 2-just pat in on before bed. AND EXFOLIATE!!!

    when you are looking for a salon-make sure they do 'hot wax' brazillians (not 'strip wax')-much less painfull.
    oh! and my beautician told me to take a panadol (or any other fairly mild painkiller) before hand, as i'm a wuss.
    also don't get it done the week after or the week before your period as this is when you are most sensitive and it will hurt more-the best time i'm told is two weeks after your period

    Round here it's called a Sphinx - when everything goes. Oh ya, and a Bohemian is the male one

    I was getting waxed one time and I'm back in the room, naked and laying on the little table and the beautician came in and we're chit-chatting and she sort of starts doing her thing - then we kind of get a look at eachother and we're like, wait a minute...do I know you? And it turned out we had gone to high school together. We had a big laugh though cause she only said something after she'd gotten a look at me all naked. Then we spent the rest of the time catching up while she did her thing and my legs spread all over the place.

    I've been a long time waxer. I have been waxing (full leg, bikini, underarm, eyebrows, "moustache") since I was 12 years old. To get everything done including a "brazillian" with a little patch on top at my beautician all up is under $60 AUD. I've been using her and now her daughter for years!

    I'm actually quite afraid to use anyone else.

    I don't see what the big deal is... granted, since I have been doing it so long I now only need to get my lower leg, "brazillian", eyebrows once a fortnight and lip (moustache) and upper leg once a month.

    I also work nude plus since I do private party shows the lighting isn't as "dark" or "complimentary" as strip club lighting.... so there is no big deal for me to let it all grow out.

    ESPECIALLY now since after all these years I'm starting to see the results/pay-off...

    My mom works as a nail tech and esth, at a local spa.. I can convence her to do my lbrows, egs and underarms (she's much faster than I am), but I don't know if I'd be okay with her doing a brazillian... I mean.. She's my mom... "hey mom, will you pull off the hair on my ass?"

    Haha...

    I am not sure I could do my OWN. Eek! If I did, it would take me HOURS.

    I keep hearing that waxing for long enough reduces the amount of hair greatly or makes it so fine it's not nearly as noticeable. For those that wax, how long on average before this happens, like a couple of years?

    I used to get brazillian waxes... But I started shaving when I started dancing. It's just easier than going to a salon or paying for it or waiting for it to grow out enough (especially). I wax my upper lip and that's it. I don't know HOW you girls can wax yourselves! Every time I try, I just sit there for half an hour with the strip in hand, trying to work up the courage to pull! I know it doesn't hurt THAT bad... I just can't do it to myself.

    I couldn't do it myself, I tried before and it hurt soooo much. You can use emla cream before you go, it's a topical anasthetic (?) and it works wonders! Can even feel it. btw I would get them to sugar it rather than waxing, less painful.
