Most girls freak out when they hear the words Brazilian wax. This is mostly because it is associated with pain or discomfort and because of the actual procedure itself, which kind of exposes your most private parts to a complete stranger.
Anyways, this post is for those of you who haven't got a Brazilian wax before, or who don't know what a Brazilian wax is. So, to keep it short and easy a Brazilian wax is the process of waxing off all your pubic hair, back and front. And by all I mean all. A Brazilian wax is different from a bikini wax or a French wax which takes off only the sides around your bikini line.
Why should I get a Brazilian wax?
Brazilian wax is a very good alternative to shaving. Everybody hates shaving, especially in that area, so this is one good reason. Another benefit is that it lasts a lot longer. This is because the hair is removed from the follicle (or the root) instead of being cut at the skin level. A Brazilian can last as long as 6 weeks, so there you have it. You only need to take four or five of them during the summer.
What happens in there?
At the salon, your esthetician will do a quick overview of the whole process if you ask her to. You don't need to feel embarrassed or anything, and don't be afraid to ask questions. After you met the esthetician you will have to remove your clothes from the waist down and lay on a bed.
By the way, before getting a Brazilian wax you should trim your pubic hair so that it won't be longer than half an inch. Typically, a length between a quarter of an inch and half in inch is fine. If you haven't done it they can do it for you before the Brazilian. This will reduce the pain.
Now, when it comes to the waxing itself, different salons do different things. Some use hard wax, which can be pulled off without using strips, some use regular wax or strip wax. Both methods are fine, except that when removing the hair from more sensitive areas it is recommended to use hard wax.
After the waxing is done, some estheticians will use a tweezers to remove any remaining hair, some don't. Again, it varies from place to place, some do it some don't. Also, after the process is done some estheticians will apply baby powder to the waxed area to prevent redness or swelling.
Does it hurt?
Pain is something very subjective, so there is no right answer here. For some people it hurts like hell from some it is only a discomfort. As a general rule, for people will thicker and darker hair will it will hurt more that for people with thinner and lighter hair.
Also, the more you do it the better it gets. Your body gets used to it and the pain will diminish.
