How to get a brazilian bikini wax
"Hey, not as painful as I thought it would be!"
How I did it: I asked around for recommendations for a local salon and just made an appointment with whoever was available. I lucked into getting a waxer who had just been declared the best in the area.
Lessons & tips:
- If it's your first time, tell them!
- Don't go tanning or use any lotions before you go.
- Make sure your body hair is long enough to be able to catch in the wax.
- Some suggest an ibuprofen beforehand reduces pain.
- MOST IMPORTANT: try to stay relaxed! It will significantly help your experience if you aren't tense. Take slow, measured breaths. Your body naturally feels pain less when you breathe out, so try to exhale as your waxer removes the strip.
