Dear Friends,
Quite a few of you have sent me e-mail requesting waxing tips after I posted the shaving tips. Since there were too many of you to reply individually regarding the same topic, it made sense to post it here.
I received my first waxing at age 16. I chose to get waxed because it is always swimming season in Florida where I live. Shaving every other day became a tedious chore.
Waxing your legs is easy. If you are wanting to wax your pubic area, you will need the help of a salon or someone close you trust with your life. I say to use someone you trust with your life because the first few times you get your pubic area waxed, you will really feel as if you are dying.
The following directions are intended for the assistant, not for the person being waxed. They are directed for pubic area waxing, but can also be used as general waxing directions.
Assuming you have a trusted someone available, you will need the following supplies:
Heatable wax
Applicator (a plastic butter knife will suffice)
Muslin strips
Wax remover
Anethetic spray (optional)
An old towel.
Copious amounts of alcohol. (Tanqueray and tonic with a squeeze of lime is preferred.)
I highly recommend Honee supplies made by Gigi Laboratories available at finer beauty supply stores.
IMPORTANT: Do not have sexual contact prior to waxing. It makes the area too sensitive for waxing.
Do not wax open or healing wounds.
1. Allow several days hair growth to ensure a good hair gripping surface. Short hairs may not adhere to the wax well, requiring unecessary repeat and pain. Longer hairs adhere well ensuring a firm grip.
2. Have a few drinks to calm the nerves.
3. Prior to bathing, apply the optional anesthetic topical spray (4% Lidocaine) to the area to be waxed. Rub into the skin. It will not totally numb the area. It can only serve to dull the pain.
4. Bathe and cleanse the area well prior to waxing. The optional anesthetic spray is oily. To ensure a firm grip, use a degreasing hand soap.
5. While bathing, have your assistant warm the wax. There are many cold waxes available, but they do not work as well as a heated wax. Waxes can be heated in a microwave, but will need to be reheated throughout the waxing process. To avoid this step, purchase a wax warmer also available through finer beauty supply stores. The wax will slightly harden when applied resulting in a stronger hair grip.
6. Place the old towel on a comfortable chair or seating surface. If you are particularly sloppy, another towel used as a floor drop cloth would be a good idea as well.
7. Have another drink.
8. Decide on how much of the hair you wish to be removed.
9. Have your lady-friend sit on her knees facing away from you. This position allows you to reach areas normaly unreachable, like the lower outer labia and anus. (Lips and ass to those without a clue.) She will need to reposition herself throughout the process, but I've always found getting the hardest areas completed first worked well.
10. Take a long swig of alcohol.
11. Using the applicator, apply a thin layer of heated wax to the skin and smooth following the hair growth. Do not apply against hair growth. Use as little wax as possible. Too much wax will not grip to the muslin strip. Do not cover more area than your muslin strip can easily cover. It is best to wax in tiny long strips as opposed to large, wide ones.
12. Immediately after applying the heated wax, firmly apply the muslin strip. Press the strip with your fingertips along the entire length to ensure the wax is absorbed slightly into the muslin strip.
13. Allow a few seconds for the wax to slightly cool.
14. Have her take a few more gulps of alcohol.
15. Grip the edge of the muslin strip firmly. Sharply pull the muslim strip as close to the surface as possible and against the hair growth pattern.
16. Apologize and mix her another drink. You may want to bring her the bottle if she wishes to continue.
17. If there are hairs left that were not pulled, do not rewax the area. Repeat the process the next day after the skin has calmed. Immediately rewaxing can remove skin causing more pain, bleeding and eventual scabbing.
18. Repeat steps 10-16, shaping the pubic hair into the desired pattern or remove entirely.
19. When finished, follow the directions on the wax remover bottle. Standard soaps will not work in removing wax. They will serve only to spread the wax.
I assure you, the pain does go away. I only have to wax once every two months now. There is only a slight discomfort. That discomfort far exceeds the inconvenience of shaving several times a week.
It saves me time and the skin feels softer. Waxing also works well on legs, underarms and shaping eyebrows.
A note to the assistant: If you followed the steps I provided closely, she will be pretty liquored up. Now is your chance to try things she normally wouldn't allow.
Happy waxing,
Ignore Me
