What is your opinion on Brazilian waxing and does it hurt?

Answer 1

It sure does! I would suggest trying it once to cure your own curiosity. If you like it, then keep doing it. You should know that it will hurt at least little pain, but there are numing liquid spray that can be applied to help the skin before your waxing treatment. Get it done professionally, it is embarrassing, then just close your eyes, but it will be done right.

Some hints to do some preparations before waxing appointment. First, you can take a shower at least 30 minutes earlier to make sure hairs are nice and clean easlier to be picked up by wax. Also, take a pain reliever such as advil, an hour before waxing treatment, it will take away much pain, also avoid your sweat come out since you are not that nervous. You know, sweat as a lubricant to hair so that not all hairs come out in waxed spot. Clean hairs and relaxing are the most important elements to reduce the pain. So, relaxing music should be playing while the treatment.

In addition, using hard wax is the best result for Brazilian wax. Why? hard wax is applied in a small strip each time, less pain, less red, less blues, less possibility to wipe off your skin. But it just takes a little long time to wait for hard wax dried up.

Most of salons are used strip wax or soft wax becasue it is much faster and less cost for each Brazilian waxing treatment, but just resulting more pain to customers.

After waxing treatment, our Brazilian waxing studio suggests to put some soothing oil with tea tree to sooth the waxing skin, to remove all wax residues. Instead of using lotions at once, there are some ingredients in lotions might upset the waxed skin to casue skin irritation.

To avoid ingrown hairs, customers should exfoliate the waxed skin the next day before dead cells formed to clog skin pores which new hairs will come through.

It's easy and cheaper to do it yourself at home with a kit you buy from the drugstore. However, to avoid searing, blinding pain, you should buy a tube of "no scream cream" (I bought it at an online drugstore) and apply 20 mins before you start waxing. It numbs the nerves on the skin, so it acutally doens't hurt when you pull the wax off.

Like hellfire, but only for a brief time. It pays to have this done professionally.Costs more , but hurts less.
