Brazilian Wax. Yes there’s more

Our Sex In The City protagonists belted out Brazilian wax and like everything else they wore, ate or did became an immediate success. That was in 1999 and the experience was surprisingly pleasant for those ‘brave’ enough to indulge. For others, it remains a mystery.

With Christmas just around the corner you might want to treat yourself to something truly special. Here’s how it works:

You’ll need to take off all of your clothes and then put on a ‘G’ string. Baby powder and oil are spread on the sensitive areas of the genitalia to prevent the wax from sticking to the skin. The wax is spread over the area where hair is to be removed.

Waxing strip is then applied to the area covered with wax and then pulled in one swift movement in the opposite direction. This removes the hair. The waxer then works her way around the body systematically removing the hair from the buttocks, adjacent to the anus, perineum and vulva, labia majora (okay enough technical jargon) the “lips of the vagina” and the mons pubis.

Leaving hair just above the vulva is called the ‘landing strip’ and may be trimmed with scissors. At The Face Place where we did the procedure it’s called a ‘little Kim’. If the hair above the vulva is removed this is a complete Brazilian.

The wax used is often a mixture of natural bees wax and oil rather than the more common wax used for the legs. all woman loves the fact that The Face Place uses three types of wax – Azulene for more sensitive skins, Hemp Wax which is used on all skin types or Brazilian (hard wax), best for coarse hair.

You might want to use the Brazilian hard wax as this is actually removed using the fingers (more effective for removing thicker, coarser pubic hairs).

Pain? Are you kidding me! Lots but the results in addition to the look on his face is well, you know, well worth the ‘slight’ discomfort.

More information on any of these procedures can be had from the pros at The Face Place, 48 Constant Spring Road.
