I failed...

Tonight I finally decided I would try to wax... It was sooooo painful! Dear Lord! I have waxed many places before and yes it's painful but NOTHING like that! Ha! I started the job and was unable to finish it. I just couldn't pull on the strips afer I pulled the first one and saw how painful it was. My hads would shake lol. Bummer. You can only imagine the mess I did...and that's because I wax other parts weekly!

Madame, I am soooooooo proud of you! I have no idea how you did that while pregnant! Wow!

I might try again in about 6 months but I'll have someone do that for me because, I can't do the job....

Re: I failed...

  • Oh my gosh, I could never do it myself! Its way easier to have someone else do it! Go you for trying!

  • I have only ever gotten my eyebrows waxed - once. It was awful. I can't even imagine doing that! Especially by myself - no way!!

  • A for effort, but I bet paying for someone else to do it is way worth it.

  • My eyes water when someone else does my brows. I tried to do my own once and they didn't look very good b/c after I realized how much it hurt doing it myself I couldn't rip the strips off. I can't imagine doing my nether regions myself.

  • Wow!! I dont mind getting my brows waxed, but I'd never try it myself. As for other body parts I can't stand to get them waxed by someone else much less DIY!!!

  • Lol. I didn't think it bee such a big deal since I wax all other parts that I can do myself. I knew the pain is diffrent in all areas of the body and that it hurts more in some places than others but WOW talk about pain! lol I couldn't pull the strip after like the second succesful one. Maybe like in six months I'll forget about the pain and I'll go get it done for me, because the parts that I did manage to do look very pretty lol.

    OMG ~ since it's spring i was in the mood to try this too!  i went out, bought the wax strips (i'm pretty good with pain) and tried it.....

    HELL  NO!  That hurt like a B!tch!!  i only did 2 strips, the 1st didn't get all the hairs, so i braved it & tried again....Indifferent nope.  (i used veet brand No.  Red, burning pain on top of my inner thigh...I showed h and he was like - "ouch, pls don't do that anymore".  Tongue Tied

    So, i went back to the store for the cream stuff, it kinda worked but I wasn't impressed, plus it doesn't smell very good.  I give up, spent too much $ on it already....i guess my next attempt will be getting professionally done too.

    What us women have to go through is ridiculous!!

    Lol I don't remember the brand I use, but It's the one that the lady that used to wax me would use.  It works great in almost every area I've used it for. I think it was me this time and I just couldn't handle that kind of pain lol.

    I showed h too and he was like "....please don't do that again."lol
