brazilian waxes

i normally shave since i like to be silky smooth and since i've been doing it for so long i can do it pretty quickly and effectively but my hair grows back so fast and the stubble is uncomfortable for me and my guy during intercourse (we get rough ;)) so i'm gonna try waxing again. the one and only time i got a brazilian was the most horribly painful experience (worse than childbirth...almost) and the stupid lady didn't even get all the hair AND i was left with these white bumps all over the area. my conclusion: she sucked and didn't properly wax me, hence i will not be returning to that salon.

my question is, how do i choose a place that will do the procedure PROPERLY so i don't walk away with my labia on fire? i want to be silky smooth and i want it to stay that way for longer than a day but i don't want to put myself through excruciating pain in order to do so.

razor burn sucks and i'm too broke to afford electrolysis.
 
^Try some local websites for recommendations, or put the word out to your friends. The only way you'll know you're going to a decent waxer is from personal accounts. :)
 
Ok, I know this is kinda a strange out of place post but I thought this was as good of a thread as any. I have found that if I use my apricot scrub when I'm high on opiates, my skin is a lot softer. Perhaps because you feel you can do it longer without it hurting as much as its pretty abrasive but you don't end up doing it so long that it makes your skin raw. So I guess if you are high anyway it might be a good perk. :)

If you washed out the baking soda thoroughly and then used the vinegar you should get nice results.

Have you tried it?
I'm a bit scared:)


I am having a bangs dilemma ........
I recently cut bangs for the first time since I was like 6......
They have now taken on a life of their own and behave as the like....
I need bang control without gel or gunk that will show!
I blow dry them, I've tried curling them......
I can get them to be normal for a bit but then they go crazy....
Any suggestions?
 
hey! does anyone know where to find nice yet cheap wigs i can try on before buying? (as opposed to buying online) i want to be outrageous for a party and want a crazy colored wig. don't ask, it would make me happy. any suggestions? my sis said costume castle but meh...iono

thanks!
 
just go to the hair store, they got all kind of tracks and weaves there and u can get yaki instead of remy hair and its cheap as fuck and they got lots of diff. kinds of colors, idk where u live at but in any city there is plenty of stores like this, theres like 5 diff ones i can think of in the area where i would go shoppin at , so i am sure its the same by u, idk if that is eactly wat ur lookin for cuz there def aint gonna be no rainbow brite shit up in there, but if u want purple, red, gold, blueish purple, etc u can find it.....also u can just get a plain blonde wig thats yaki and not synthetic hair and then u can dye it any bright color u want with the diff. dyes available.

If your fringe is long enough, I strongly suggest every time you wash it to blow dry it with a round brush, then hairspray it to sit how you want it to. Hairspray ime, is the best product to hold it in place, without the ugly affect that gel or waxes leave. After a while, your hair adjusts into that position, and it will sit how you want it to if you tame it for a while. :)

ok now that i seen your location thats why lol, your prolly gonna have to hit up the hood wherever that is at in orange county. IDK if they GOT a hood in orange county lol. Might have ta take ya ass out to compton ;) My point is u dont find stores like this in cities where the majority of the population that rests they head there is white. whitegirls get extensions sometimes, but to find a store that got weaves n tracks u gotta go to a place where there is peoplee who want to buy weaves n tracks. u feel me. anyways, good luck
 
Or you could check out your local drug store for some hip hop hair weave ;)

Does anyone here use tanning lotion or do the mystic tan? I really want a light tan but I don't like to get sunburnt. It's actually still pretty cold where I live so I can't lay out or anything. During the summer I go outside but I don't like to lay out for extended periods of time either.

In my experience self tanning has been kind of fake looking... anyone have a good recommendation besides going to a tanning bed? I will never do that again haha..

airbrush tanning is good, 'cause they'll do the color according to how you want it

does anyone know of any lightweight, overnight moisturizers? i wash my face 2x a day, once in the morning and once at night. i use a moisturizer with SPF 30 sunscreen during the day but it's too heavy to wear at night. any help would be appreciated

You should find a Clinique boutique/counter and ask 'em to recommend something, they have really fab products that are made for your specific skin type

If all else fails, do what I did when I cut mine too short: pin/clip them back until they grow out a bit. Then they'll be more manageable once they have a bit of length to them.
 
I always make sure to comb my bangs AS SOON as I get out of the shower and haven't really had many problems with them going astray if I do that.
 
Speaking of lip balms, I cant believe I've never ever tried any of Lush's lip balms before (I'd only get their soaps, bathbombs, body butters, etc.)
The wonderful tribalgirl <3 just sent me my very first Lipsqueak lip balm and I am SOOOO in love. OMG. Cant stop putting it on! And my lips are sooo soft and luscious and smelling like apple pie made in heaven.

I'll be sure to check out the other Lush lip balm offings for sure! Now this one will go everywhere with me ;)

Yelp.com (no pun intended - it's the name of the site =D) can give you recommendations by zipcode. Also let me know if you'll be in the Bay Area and I'll refer you to my waxer - she is fast, professional, and the results are excellent. I need to find a way to get regular waxes back into my budget. :\

MC/any of you VCO fans - what vendor would you recommend for someone in the US who'd like to try a bottle for hair moisture and oil pulling purposes? I see VCO at health food stores, etc. but all that shit is way overpriced here. :\
