My First Brazilian Wax
Last year, my Belle de Jour Planner had a coupon giving me a FREE Brazilian wax! I was supposed to try it, but I chickened out. I mean, I saw that part in Miss Congeniality where they stripped her off her own bush… Her scream was heard for miles lol.
So, I went to Lay Bare to try some of their services. I got the eyebrow threading first because I usually have it done on salons. For the waxing part, I tried the leg waxing first and ZOMG, virtually NO PAIN at all! It felt just like they stuck a scotch tape on my leg then removed it. It was nothing really. Then, I decided to try to go all out and try the Brazilian waxing!
Before anything else, it is highly recommended not to take any caffeine before waxing because caffeine stimulates your nervous system. Let’s just say I felt sleepy in the morning and I took a cup from Starbucks right before I went to Lay Bare. The leg wax really did not hurt at all. Not a pinch
So, there you go… I was ready to take the Brazilian… It hurts more if you shave (and I do) so fml. Can’t do anything about it. I already committed to doing it so I was just like fark it, LET’S DO THIS!
I won’t lie and won’t say that it didn’t hurt for me. It was okay in some areas, but there are a few areas where I had to hold my breath and gush out a faint *OUCH* haha… but, the pain is tolerable and the staff is really helpful in distracting pain. I just chose the bare Brazilian (no design at all). But, you can choose too from different designs like square, rectangle – even a heart!
But you know what, right after it, it felt really nice and smooth! It’s a really nice feeling compared to shaving. Shaving makes the skin more rough and the texture more rugged. Taking the hair out from the roots is just plain awesome, and you’ll be hair free for 2 weeks I didn’t know I could feel as smooth as I was 20 years ago – JUST LIKE THAT! It’s so neat and I love it! I am already a fan and I picture myself coming back there every 6 weeks for the wax. It’s so affordable too! That’s why I’m so happy discovering this thing! They do all hair stuff too like threading, underarm waxing and stuff like that Lay Bare uses cold wax and not those ones you see with patches and stuff that REALLLY STICK TO YOUR SKIN. So do check out their website…

Do You Want to Try it?
You don’t have to be a girl to try it you know… Guys also get Brazilian wax like DJ Tony Toni. I heard him say on the radio that he goes Brazilian. Anyway, for girls having all the hair problems in the world, I really suggest you try waxing. Lay Bare’s staff are also professionals and you don’t really need to be shy.
If you do want to try it then it’s the perfect time to avail of Buyanihan.com ’s new deal of the week!
Given the extremely delicate nature of body hair removal, utmost privacy and comfort are guaranteed in all salons with their acrylic bead curtains, private cubicles and reclining beds. Simple interiors, natural accents, lime and bamboo color schemes enhance that non-intimidating setting that discriminating customers look for.
Lay Bare is noted for its Cold Wax service. Cold wax, which comes in different strips sizes, is easier to use than hot wax. They are less painful to remove since they don’t stick as strongly as hot wax on the skin.
All branches use cold sugar wax jelly made from natural ingredients that have bleaching, moisturizing and exfoliating properties: sugar, kalamansi and honey. Sugar water is water-soluble thus it’s easy to clean up with just water. Continued cold waxing leads to lighter, smoother skin. Hair re-growth is finer and sparser.

Its really an experience, but I like it – sans the pain though! Hahaha..
If there was a pain reliever that we can take before getting a Brazilian wax, then it would be perfect! 🙂
Thanks for sharing that they’re giving out discounts!! 🙂
Yey!!
whoa…:) i’d love to try b-waxing too..doesn’t it feel awkward? I mean you know, other people going over that area?:) hmm. But I’d really like to try it someday.
hey Wella 🙂 they’re professionals and I don’t think it’s a big deal for them to see your thingy coz I bet they saw thousands already 🙂 don’t be shy… just relax and let them do the work… they are very friendly too.
Congratulations! Sakit niyan! The cold wax ingredients sound like a recipe! I wonder if garlic would be a good ingredient. Sounds crazy, but it has antiseptic properties, though baka mahapdi. 🙂
Haven’t tried this one but after reading your post, it really sounds like a lot of fun.
Dear, i tried the bikini wax this morning LOL puro ouch ako pero tolerable naman hehe
is it possible to choose a tech?
SUGARING is much better than waxing. It’s less painful,less breakage,less ingrown hair. 🙂
