    it doesn't get stubbly, thats the best part.
    the hair grows back much softer, its not as noticeable at all. the hair is long enough to be waxed again in about 4-6 weeks depending on your own hair growth rate, but the regrowth is much less unpleasant from that of shaving. probably a week or more before i'd notice any hairs at all

    Woooooooowwww! I also went and had my brazilian done yesterday and it was pretty much the exact same procedure as outlined below by oul doll, I focking love it(",) and not half as sore as getting your legs done- especially the shins that's what I find most painful. The girl made me so comfortable and we chatted away for the whole duration. Anyone who is contemplating doing it I would definitely recommend it I can't wait to show my BF Ha Ha!!!
    And thanks for the advice guys.

    You're going to ask your gf to go through a sh!t load of pain for your pleasure?

    Well, the other girls who got it done said that their bfs would love it.
    So I thought, since i like it, I might suggest it to my gf, and if she said yes i would pay for her to go to a health spa and spend the day there etc etc....
    If she doesnt like the idea, she can say no.... cant she...
    im not asking her to walk around the world am I... :rolleyes:
    But I ask this of the girls who did get it done (and went through all that pain). Did they do it for
    A) The fun.
    B) beauty reasons
    C) their boyfriends.

    Well?

    Seconded.
    Plus you don't have to keep spending money going back for waxing and you don't have to wait so long for re-growth cuz it works on hair only a couple of mm long. So you're smooth all year-round :D

    My God, that sounds WAY too painful. Waxing's painful enough as it is, but pulling them out almost 1 at a time!!!!!!:eek:

    Are you talking a Brazilian with an epilator or what?

    Oh, & what about ingrowns?

    (You know the way men go when they see another guy getting a knock on the nads? Well that's how I'm going right now just thinking of the pain!!):D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭daveg


    I got the back and shoulders done a few weeks ago and I can honestly say it was the most painfull experience of my life. I nearly fúcking cried. I'd like to think I have a high pain threshold as I've been for pyseo on my back and I thought the pain the pyseo put me through could not be beaten. It can and it was. I had 2 pints of bud before hand (was early morning - I wish I'd had a bottle of JD)and was a bit tipsy when I went in. I sobered straight up after the first rrriiippppp.

    However it was worth it and I'm going back again (god help me)..

    I use it nearly everywhere - underarms n all ! You get used to it, same as waxing. Not exactly one at a time....now THAT would be painfull:eek:! Some come with a numbing bar on the nozzle which helps. It's not as messy as waxing and pretty quick to use. Had it for years & couldn't live without it.

    Can you not get it premanently removed from your back and shoulders using lasers or whatever...

    Seems like too much pain to do again and again.

    Yea, I have an epilator for my legs, but never in a million years would've considered doing my bikini area with it. I mean, I can't even use it on the tops of my legs, only from just above knee down!!

    I'm kinda curious now!!!:D

    Ya big wimp...I get it done when i'm goin on beach holiday as I don't want to be looked at funny and have got it done numerous times. It is sore but not as sore as ya make out! I get it done on back, shoulders and on top of my arms and it is worth it, but when the hair comes back it gets all spotty. Is that normal or am I just an intelligent chimp?

    Kwinabeeste.... when you get all spotty I think thats ingrown hairs!! Maybe you should try a different beautician because some of them are ****e to be honest!! Does it get itchy?

    There ya go boozybabe, im not so out of order asking the gf to get it done. I pretty well figured that a lot of girls do it for their partners. I guess you dont.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 5,810 ✭✭✭deisemum


    way to go chicken, I think I'll try it but I'll say nothing to DH, just surprise him some day and wait for his reaction. After all it can't be worse than drug free childbirth, can it?:confused:

    It actually depends on how thick it is (how painfull it is). Spots are normal.

    Well?

    i actually do it mainly because the skin is alot more sensitive to being touched without the hair and it feels alot nicer.

    it does look very pretty though :D

    Anyone else feel like they know too much information about some folks bits, and not having gone out with any of them!!?? Or is it just me? ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,225 ✭✭✭Ciaran500


    I got that about half way through the thread but just couldn't stop reading :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,807 ✭✭✭chump


    I just think all the girlies on here should be using

    http://www.ivenus.com/scripts/ubbcgi/Ultimate.cgi?action=intro

    to discuss all this maintainence talk ...

    all these details take away from the mystery :D

    Absolutely for the beauty and the boyfriend- I think I am related to oul doll cork!!!!

    Ok, curiosity got the better of me, so I "TRIED" this last night.

    OMG, what was I thinking. I thought I was going to pass out with the pain & because it was SO painful I could only do it V slowly. It took me all bloody night!!!
    Why would you want to put yourself through that on a regular basis?

    Admittedly, it feels nice, but fella's:- are the rewards great enough (if you know what I mean;) ) for us putting ourselves through such pain?

    (Tell you what, the whole idea of a forest had a whole lot going for it last night!!!:D )

    U could try trimming first or shaving a bit it does take a while initially but as long as you maintain it at least once a week the results are def worth it ie the hair growth is slower and softer

    try having a drink before hand :D or even getting a better epilator
    mine has a massage head on it so its not too bad because I get a mini massage too :)
    good luck
