ouch

for a long time now, i have wanted to get a brazilian bikini wax, but either kept putting it off or didn't feel like going through the effort to grow out the area to be able to wax it off.

however, i have finally done it. now, anyone who has had their brows waxed knows that it is not the most comfortable feeling when that deliciously warm wax gets ripped from your quaking flesh, but this is a whole other discomfort.

first, let me start by saying that i think i have an pretty high threshold for pain. i don't really like taking pain killers unless i really need to, so i generally just deal with the pain of whatever my ailment is at the time. bikini waxing brings new meaning to the word pain for me. i am talking REAL pain. i went to a lady (yes, she is hot and busty for all you hornballs wondering) that i have had my brows done with many times. she is one of boston's best every year. i knew i needed her expert hands working down there. it was a little strange having someone i knew staring at my box though. let me tell ya, she got a full view.

so, she starts by applying the wax and warning me that is going to hurt more and more as she gets closer to the middle area. she starts with the area where your leg meets your crotch (groin area). i am shocked at how much pain that one strip of fabric brought me. she then handed me some squeezy toys to help me deal with the pain. she quickly goes for the next strip and the next and so on. i was in so much pain, i actually felt like i might black out. i was sweating and trying to breath deeply to keep myself coherent!

she tells me that it gets better though. "there's a reason people come back" she says. i'll have to get back to you on that one. :)
