yeah i actually looked at some on youtube (just the reactions!) just to get a feel for the pain factor.. it seemed like the ones who had someone there with them didnt show the pain as much.. so my sister in law is going with me.. maybe i'll take my camera.. could make for some interesting facial expressions! Do it Yourself

Is that worse than walking around feeling like you've just had rubbing alcohol poured in your panties?

That's good enough reason to do it every day. I've been thinking about it, but I'll wait to hear what you think. How often do you have to have it done? Have you checked into lasering? That's not a one-time thing either, is it? When I settle on my most recent accident, I'm thinking I'm going to indulge. Eew, wouldn't you hate to be the garbage man of a salon?!

no first time is supposed to be hardest... and phyx, the pain is supposed to only last a few minutes/hours, but the benifits are supposed to last for at leasst a month!!

JC, you are seriously brave. I would never do it. Thankfully, my mother passed some fabulous genes down to me!

Is anybody else wondering about those genes? Well, I'm lucky in that I have zero hair on my legs or arms. I've never shaved nor does it look likely that I ever have to. I'd say more, but its little TMI for a public board...

lol.. it cant hurt more than a tatoo can it? Hi JC - when is the big day? I've had this done - and laser hair removal too. Laser hurts like I'd think a tatoo does. OWIE! but the wax - over before you know it. If you know someone who does "sugaring" rather than waxing, you might want to consider it. I hear it hurts less.. but.. I didn't find it hurt that much, and I'm a total baby. I didn't even take an ibuprofin or anything, cuz I forgot. Good luck!
