Brazilian Bikini Wax

There are different types of hair removal options: permanent, laser, depilatory creams, waxing, etc., and though the variety of methods available is quite extensive, all these techniques have only one purpose, to remove unwanted hair from our body.

One of the most popular techniques is the Brazilian wax, and though the origin of the name is something of a mystery (perhaps it is due to the Copa Cabana beaches environment), it refers to the type of waxing that is applied to the bikini area.

This method removes all the hair except a small portion in the form of "v" that is at the front.

With a Brazilian wax you remove the hair that lies between the labia and in the rear.

Brazilian waxing requires a highly trained practitioner as it is applied in places that are difficult to see by oneself and it has to be done carefully as vaginal hair removal is very painful.

A strong recommendation is that you do not try to do this on your own if you are not a professional in the field.

Specialized beauty and Brazilian waxing salons are much safer as they have extensive experience in the matter.

To give you a brief outlook of what you should expect:

• on arrival you take off your lower clothes and the technician will ask you to assume the same position as for a gynecological exam.
• You will lie down and your legs will remain open as the beautician puts some talcum powder to prevent irritation and then begins to pour the wax.
• The hairs that can not be removed will be removed with tweezers.

After describing the Brazilian wax procedure, there are many questions that come to mind, including the more compelling "Does a Brazilian wax really hurt a lot?" We must be honest and say that this method is painful but it is not torture.

Once the area was free of hair it can turn red and may bleed a little (that's when the pain tends to be more acute).

Although many women still have doubts, we will touch upon two things - length of hair growth and sexual activity.

Regarding hair regrowth the results depend on each person, but usually last 3 weeks and after that hair will grow slowly and can cause itching and discomfort. With regards to the sexual side of things, many women who say their intimate activity improves after using a Brazilian wax as it makes them look "younger."

Brazilian waxing and precautions

If you are a shy person or easily embarrassed, the Brazilian wax may not be suitable for you - you have to expose your genital area to a stranger so in case of doubt we recommend you follow the traditional methods of home hair removal: shaving or depilatory creams, but for both these methods you should be careful and take the necessary precautions.
