    Girls! Have you not heard of the marvellous new invention called "No Scream Cream" or something like that, im not at home so cant check. I go to Urban Wax for my Hollywood... Yes Hollywood... that means absolutelly nothing left down there!

    Anyway the cream works a treat, you put it on about an hour before your treatment and put on your clothes as normal, and then when you get the waxing done it's nothing short of a miracle. Now i'm not saying you go numb down there or anything, but it certainly makes it ALOT more bearable. TRY IT!!!

    The cream is called "relax and wax-no scream cream", absolutely fantastic !, Its always a hollywood for me since I found Urban Wax plus that miracle cream. I have to say the regrowth is certainly thinning out also!!, I am getting much longer out of a wax now, but hey, I am getting these treatments for the past 10 years...ouch :eek:

    I got a brazilian done when i was out in america my Bf was comin to visit so i thought it would be a nice surprise i have a high pain treshold so that didn't bother me..

    Only problem was when he arrived out he said he didn't actually like brazilians cause it made him feel dirty as if i was 12 or something as he says "likes a cushion for pushin" although he did get over it!!!

    I can't take the pain! I always thought I had a really high pain threshold, but nope, not when it comes to waxing! My best friend is Veet, slap it on, wait 3 minutes, wash it off, all smooth!

    When I was going through the Armor Officer's Basic Course, one of the other lieutenants was most proud of the fact that there wasn't a single hair on his body outside of his eyebrows. Anywhere. At all. Even after questioning for clarification.

    Ermm.. OK. Rather him than me. Blades or anything else with the potential of being even remotely painful are not going to go anywhere near my sensitive bits, so tip of the hat to the lasses who do.

    I am not sure if it's a cultural thing or not. I've found that ladies who do the full hair removal to be far more common in the US than in Ireland. Of course, since I've emigrated to the US, I also tend to interact with older women, getting older myself as time marches on. So the question becomes, is it an age thing, or is it a nationality thing?

    Whats the Armor Officers basic course? Does it involve a physical exam or something?, confused as to why he needed to tell you about waxing?

    It was a course for new armour officers in Fort Knox, to teach them how to be tankers and cavalrymen.
    I can't exactly recall how the topic came up. We were just waiting for the instructor in our classroom and having a chat.

    Chatting to some French female friends a year or two back and this topic arose. Generally it's not done in france, it's considered common and slutty I was told. Dunno why, but there ya go.

    If it's generally not done, how can it be considered 'common'?

    Common as in lower class I would presume. Tbh I don't know, crazy French.

    I'm of the opinion (as I'm sure most would guess) that it's your body, and do with what you want as long as it makes you happy.

    Well with 'no scream' creams I cant imagine that brazilian waxing really makes women happy?

    Seriously? Does it really make a differnet during sex or what? Why do women get this done? I just couldnt fathom waxing anything in that area.

    During intercourse, it doesn't feel any different to me, although it looks different, obviously.

    Oral is nicer . . . without being too graphic, it's just skin on skin and very slippy.

    I don't find it in any way painful so I suppose yeah it does make me 'happy' for want of a better word.

    I definitely shave and most of the French girls/women I know shave. :rolleyes:

    Also, I read instructions for an epilator not so long ago. It was claiming that epilating was a pure moment of joy and peacefulness. I just laughed.

    I don't do my armpits, but do shave legs. Personally I don't find armpit hair offensive, or pubic hair either. I shave my legs because they look like hedgehogs otherwise!

    Ok im just wondering does every lady out there Brazilian wax.
    Ive had it done once and it was so sore that i never got it done again, but i was thinking of getting done because i think my boyfriend might appreciate it, or am i wrong do guys even notice these things?
    Waxperts in Dun Laoghaire is the best place for waxing. It hardly even hurts, hth.

    Yep, my mother and grandmother always used to describe things they disapproved of as "common". They meant cheap, working class, tacky.

    It's not really considered slutty or whatever, and there are a lot of french women who do it. It's simply that they usually don't talk easily about it. Moreover, bikini and the other types of waxing were "imported" only recently in France compared to the U.S or some other countries.

    I don't really see why guys should wax (especially the intimate part of their body) , though I have to admit that I don't like guys with a "jungle" on their torso.

    Do they use the lycon peelable wax or strip wax?
    Need to find a new establishment as the place I used to go in Galway closed down, another victim of the recession!

    Girls,girls girls ever hear the saying NO PAIN NO GAIN... The pain is worth every second of it to look down and not have what looks like a head of broccoli between my legs :) I get it done every 4-6 weeks depending on the regrowth and once you keep getting it done it doesnt hurt, Yes the first time you get it done it is painfull but defo worth it. I find taking 2 Nurofen about an hour before yoor appointment makes a big difference.

    Whenever I mention to people they find it disgusting. Probably because many girl get ingrown hairs etc from shaving. So I just kind of assumed people here would see it as disgusting too. :)
