I do it all the time. I have to say that I anticipate it hurting more than it actually does. It's quick and over before you know it. And once you do it once, you will be hooked!

ETA: I go to a professional spa to get it done. I do not go to the nail place where I get my nails. A lot of people do, but I have done both and when I go to a spa (I go to The Emerald Door in huntington) I like it sooo much better - less pain, better job, etc.

It hurts. The only positive thing about it is that once it's over there is no more pain. I like my girl bc she does it so fast, I really don't have time to freak.

I do a brazilian every 4 weeks and wouldn't have it any other way! Chat Icon It actually becomes less painful each time you do it.

Just be sure to take some ibuprofen 30-45 minutes prior to your appointment.

I personally don't think it's that bad. Having my legs waxed hurt a heck of a lot more!

It's not that bad. Take an advil - the pain goes fast.

Yes. Chat Icon Be sure to take it 30-45 min prior.

The problem is people work themselves up about the "pain". It's really not that bad.

Re: TMI Question: Bikini Waxing

It literally is the worst hurt but it is only 1 second of pain then it is gone. I ranked it a 2 overall since the pain is just for a second.

2 on my scale. The "undercarriage" hurts the most.

Will definitely need to try advil beforehand.

I agree about the pain...I do not think I would do it again

I did it once for my honeymoon.
