wax my legs

Even though, a) I never show off my legs and, b) my legs are offensively pale to most people, leafing through the magazines at all the ‘how to be beach beautiful’ type things and the amount of adverts for smoothy smooth legs has made my want to wax them. Plus, I hear regular waxing makes regrowth slower and more sparse, which is always a good thing :D

I’ve tried before, but only managed one strip ¬_¬ but then was years and years ago, so hopefully my threshold for pain is better now >:D

I’ve booked an appointment! A week from now I’ll be a few hours away from smooth (terribly pale) legs. I haven’t shaved (or waxed) my legs in months.

I DONE IT! I done it with my ex best friend :’( ellie, and it didn’t hurt :D

I’ve done this before, But never got it done properly.

New goal alert!!!

I read up on a bunch of local place on yelp and found one three blocks from my house that 5 reviewers love. Tomorrow I’m going to walk by, check out the prices and ask (if I can) if my hair is the right length to wax. Whew! I’m excited – and nervous.

Reading all those reviews about people loving their facials and their skin never looking better and all that made me want to try a facial too!! Seems a ridiculous use of money but… maybe not. Maybe I can treat myself if I am able to really do everything I set out to this week. :)

I get so sick of using the hair removal creams that don’t last very long and so I really want to try waxing. However I am a complete wuss and I’m completely freaked out about how much it’s going to hurt. Everyone says it’s not so bad but that it is painful and so I so don’t want to get it done because of the fear of the pain.
However I know the effects are great and the temptation of hair-free legs for 3-4 weeks is fantastic. I just need the courage to go.
I think I’m going to book an appointment at my local salon for next Saturday and just go for it. I’ll take a couple of ibuprofen beforehand and try not to scream the place down.

This spring I really am going to start having my legs waxed. Last year I shaved through the summer and although it was effective I endd up with a lot of razor bumps and a few nicks. Plus I needed to shave every day. So I’m hoping that getting waxed will be more effective, besides, I love to treat myself with appointments at the Spa

I loved the feeling of smooth legs, but it really wasn’t worth it. It took forever and was a huge mess. It would be expensive too to keep it done.

I do it every month or so.. it’s way better than shaving, pretty much pain free after about a second, and it doesn’t leave behind any ingrowing hairs!
To try and get the wax to grip better, sprinkle some talc on your legs before hand.

even hurt! and im a red head too and we are supposed to feel pain more. Better than shaving – but just remember to wear nice underwear.
