    Yep!
    Not as often as should though - so one extreme or the other!
    Like the way it looks and feels! Not painful anymore - but the first time - oh-ow!

    Hi there all,

    I'm guessing most posters to this thread are women but you may be able to help me. I'm male and looking to get a waxing done. I know I know is sounds ewwww, but I want to try it. Don't know how to go about it does anyone know where we men can go for such a service? :o

    Oh I have a comment on being smooth down there. As a man I love it, it's the best ever. Makes me want to give this area more attention.

    On another note It has nothing to do with prepubescent children. I can't believe any right thinking person would consider a man a paedophile, or even think he has this tendency, because of his preference for hairless nether regions. It beggars belief!

    Thanks in advance guys

    Hi Casper

    That comment is appreciated, I know a lot of guys are weird about it for some reason. I think it looks much better and sexier.

    Anyways if you go to www.lycon.ie and click on salons you will see all of the salons in the country that use this product when waxing. Its fairly pain free. Its definitely the best way to go.

    When you get the wax done, pls post a pic on here, that would be appreciated by all in LL. Many thanks in advance ;)

    I don't think I can do it unless I'm high on nurofen plus or drunk on wine. Or both!

    Nope - way too much hassle. I get waxed though and trim it myself. It's still very tidy and minimalist.

    Me too. I'm going away with my boyfriend for the August bank holiday and would like to get it done for this trip. To make sure all the red chicken skin look is gone for our trip how far in advance should I get it done, a week?

    So you ladies who are more experienced at this than I, would you chose Urban Wax or Brazilia? As this would be the first time I opt for this particular treatment I want to make sure I go to the best place.

    My skin is usually back to normal within a day or two.

    That is nice and fast. I've decided to take the plunge and have emailed urban wax with an appointment request. Just hope they can take me on the 25th. I've decided to go for it a week early, that way if it hurts like hell hopefully I'll have recovered by the following weekend:D Scared now.

    It's not nearly as bad as, say, going to the dentist to get cavities filled (no lie, I'd go get waxed rather than go to the dentist any day of the week)!

    A few days before your hols should be ample.

    Definitely go to Brazilia but book your appoint at least a week in advance as they are very busy in there. I went to Urban Wax once and didn't find the service good at all. The girl wasn't a bit nice or chatty and the tweezers came out a few too many times for me....can you imagine ???

    Ouccchh....not nice :mad:

    The dentist gives a great injection that means you feel nothing. Will my waxer supply the same level of anesthesia?:D
    When Urban Wax call me back I'll ask them about the No Scream Cream and if it is worth it, may also opt for two Nurofen Plus. :o Now that I've decided on doing it I hope to hell that I get the 25th.

    Nah . . . but there's no drilling involved either! ;)

    Don't have any experience with the No Scream cream, but definitely take a couple of tablets if you're a bit nervous; not only does it help dull the pain, but I think it's also supposed to help if there's any inflammation in the area. (Just don't take aspirin!)

    I've been getting them done for a while with lycon wax and each time i'm getting more and more ingrown hairs. :mad: I'm really fed up with it so I think I'm giving up on waxing for a while..

    I'd be interested to know the answer to this also.

    Aspirin (the wonder drug :D). Antipyretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic. Hard on the tummy though as it's a nonselective cox inhibitor.
