This a bit embarrassing but I can't think of better people to ask about this..... after shaving my "girlie parts" I ALWAYS get a raging razor rash, it hurts and itches like crazy!! I have tried just about every product out there to help.... different shaving creams and gels, before shaving treatments and after, different razors (manual and electric), I've even tried acne type treatments and NOTHING seems to help or prevent it! So, my next step is to try waxing. So my question to you is, have you ever tried brazilian waxing? How painful is it? How exactly do they handle the ummm more "delicate" areas?

WAX,, the only way to go...
take tylenon before. It hurts, momentarily.
delicate areas... ok.. they usually have a small towel, they lay that down, then wax away, using that towel to drape and "move" areas.... find a good place near you.. first time i was nervous.. after that.. wax away!Posted 1 year ago # -
Been there, done that with the raging razor burn/rash. I agree with Norton, waxing is the only way to go. Buuuut....if you are super broke, there are some good new razors with trimmers attatched, and they take the hair down to nothing with the guard off, and there are also some pretty good "Nair" like products out there. I've used one of them for sensitive skin (of course, this cannot be used on ALL the parts if you catch my drift) and was pleasantly suprised, not enough to quit waxing, but after a few turns at the salon, my sister and I decided to go in on a nice wax pot, and accesories(sp?) and we do it for each other...nothing like keeping it in the family, lol!

Another place to go if you are low on funds is a beauty school. The people who work on you are students and are usually at the end of their training. They always have a teacher near by, if they have a question, or you have a question. It usually takes a little longer than a regular salon or spa but, you can save yourself a ton of cash. You can also get your hair cut, manicure, pedicure, and a lot of other services. Doesn't hurt to check out.

Wax all the way,every where. like Inna I have my own pot and strips...unlike Inna I have to do it myself! You know that would make for a very contortionistic (well I think it a word)video. JK But you can buy the wax at Body shop...sorry do u have a body shop? Then melt in in a pan....wait maybe there's a vid on the Tube with instructions! Better lets make one, who wants to demonstrate?

Oops I forgot, you can also buy a topical 4% lidocaine to use before you start. I love sewing so I buy all my fabrics and cut them up. You need a 100% unbleached cotton of a fairly light weight. but I am sure you could buy everything in a beauty supply store. @ Inna, stop doing all the things I do...it's weird lol.Can i borrow your sister? Ebay is also a great place to buy.
