Good morning everyone!
So, just as I said in this previous post, I have decided to give the Brazilian a second try and will continue until I have completed four waxings to see if it gets better. Yesterday marked three weeks post primary torture session and it was time to endure it again.
I have a new aesthetician because the first time I did it I was on vacation in a different province. I had discovered the local torturer through my good friend and I made the appointment. I arrive five minutes early thinking that I would have time to meditate while I waited but she was waiting for me and I didn't have time to relax. She escorted me through the hall and into her chambers. To the right of the door was a curtained off segment and I was instructed to go on in and get undressed. To my astonishment there were no baby wipes!! OMG, I was not prepared this time… I went straight after sweating in my office chair all day. I begin to panic and I know that I must confess that I thought she would have that option. She looks at me and with a questioning look she tells me that I could go to the bathroom just down the hall. I thank her and quickly escape the curtained area.
I get in the bathroom and my crazy brain starts working in overtime. OMG, now she thinks that I am a dirty person. Perhaps she thinks that I didn't shower this morning… I DID BUT… it is 3:00 in the PM. Everyone would need to freshen up at that hour, no?! I take a few deep breaths and clean up, wash my hands and I am feeling much more prepared.
I enter the room a little red-cheeked and take off my clothes and place myself on her table. Now, this lady's table is really comfortable. I look around and I am really impressed with this salon. It feels pleasant and I begin to relax. She asks me when I last had my treatment and I tell her that it is my second time and that the first time I did not get the results that I expected. It left me with red blotchy spots and pimple like red spots. I have developed a spotted vajayjay… not exactly an attractive look. I suspect that perhaps I had a reaction to the wax? She tells me that it is ingrown hairs o.O NICE! I have scared my pubs so much that they are growing in backwards now!!
She is gentle and speaks about caring for my vajayjay post waxing and I am feeling at ease. She also declares that I am a natural blonde and I kinda snicker thinking that my hair stylist did a great job that she thinks that my hair is natural. I respond that I was in my youth, with a smile and she explained that it is why I am sensitive. She completed the front part and tells me to turn over. Remember when I explained what happened the first time well, THAT was pleasant compared to what this lady made me do! She had me on all fours, head on the bed and asked to "borrow" my hand to that I could spread my own cheeks!! OMG As I laid there I was thinking that this gives a whole new meaning to downward dog! WOuldn't Tony Horton be proud of this yoga position! Then I thought that it needed to have it's own name and went with "bad-dog" … so that is what my internal monologue was this round.
After that she had me lay back on my back and gave me a cold cloth to hold on my who-ha and I am sure that there was steam that was coming from it! What relief though!!
So, the second waxing was a bit better yet far from pleasant. It left me as red and blotchy as the first time and bleeding! Maybe the bleeding was the result of her coming at me with tweezers! I don't think that it could get worse than that! I laid in bed last night and wondered if this was going to be worth it… then I patted it and thought, "yup, I think that it may!" Someday I will not have anything more to say about it … I hope that someday it becomes a joy rather than misery.
How was your Wednesday? Did you do anything exciting?

Losing my Brazilian Virginity
Good morning everyone!
As I approach forty there are a number of new things that I am wanting to try and experience and I am wasting no time getting things done. For instance, I wanted to learn to run and run a race (completed June 2014), I wanted to get my ass in shape to wear my bikini on a cruise and feel good (completed November 2013; however, gained back some fat and I am working at getting rid of it for the next cruise), eat better and exercise regularly (in progress). I am pleased with my progress with my long list of things that I want to do/focus on but there remains a number of things that I have yet to complete and moving from shaving to waxing was one of them.
You see, during the past 38 years I have managed to maintain a high level of grooming in the privacy of my own home. It wasn't until I exposed my private parts to complete strangers while giving birth that I would even consider asking some stranger to wax my vajayjay. As my little blonde hairs became fuller and darker I started thinking more and more about taking the plunge and taking my vajayjay back to its former glory by waxing. So, during the spa session that I blogged about yesterday I decided to finally take the plunge, here is what happened:
Daughter2 decided to bring along the iPad and the magazine and had her fingers crossed that there would be wifi and nobody else in the waiting room. She was pleasantly surprised to see that she got her wish on both accounts. I left her to her electronics and proceeded to follow my aesthetician to a private room with an exam table (without the stirrups) that you might find in a Dr's office although it had a white crisp linen on it. To one side was the wax and in the centre of the exam table was a hand towel and a packet of baby wipes. She turns to me and smiles and explains that I am to get nekked, I can freshen up with the wipes and then place the towel over my vajayjay. I feel the need to expose my mental state to the lady and tell her that I am a waxing virgin and I am somewhat shy and ignorant about the process. She assured me that she has taken many people's waxing virginity and reassures me that everything would be fine. She exits the room and I am left alone with my fears and thoughts.
I remove my shorts and panties very slowly because I had received a 5.5 hour thigh tattoo the day before and my leg was sensitive. I then look at the wipes and I place them to the side as I had just cleaned up before I arrived, I mean who wouldn't? Then I start thinking… that is right, who wouldn't and yet they have the wipes there… so perhaps I should use a wipe just to make sure. I take two because you can never be too clean. I am feeling a little under the gun because I have taken too long so I give my privates a quick and rather forceful scrub, jump on the table and quickly throw the itty bitty towel (nearly the size of a facecloth) over my waxing area. I made it just in time for the gentle knock to sound from the door. She is here! Let the waxing party begin!
So, in walks the lady and asks me to lay my right leg to the side. Oh dear, that is the side of my healing tat and I know instantly that this was ill planned. I should have gotten the wax yesterday and the tattoo today … oh well, here goes nothing. The lady notices how gingerly I am relaxing my leg and takes greater notice of the tattoo that extends from my knee to my hip. She says that if I can withstand that this waxing will be a breeze. This makes me feel instantly like superwoman and I know that this will be nothing! She dips her popsicle stick in the wax and lays out the first strip. It is really warm but kinda feels nice and then she places the strip of cloth over it and without notice RIPS out my hair from deep down inside my inner leg. I kinda chock but I think that it is not gonna be too bad… I mean, I have felt worse pain. Oh was I SURPRISED when the next RIP came because that was not as tolerable. I quickly ask her if she has a tattoo… to which she replied that she did not. I then explained that the next lady who walks in full of tattoos should not be told that the tattooing will make the waxing feel like a walk in the park because, in fact, I would re-tattoo the tattoo from yesterday TODAY rather than to continue this session. She giggles and explains that some areas are more sensitive than others. INDEED they are and to my surprise the worse was yet to come!
So there I laid for about 15 minutes allowing this lady to torture me. I moved my legs as I was instructed and listened to her tell me that it gets easier the more I do it. That all these years of shaving has caused my follicles to enlarge and thus the additional pain. I then question why they don't give the client a popsicle stick to chop down on while they torture us and she just giggled. What she clearly didn't understand was that I was serious. Finally, she appears to be done and she asks me if I want it all done… what kind of a question is that? Of course I do! I am here aren't I? I paid $50 for this misery and I want my money's worth. So, she tells me to roll onto my tummy and I oblige. Now she separates the cheeks of my booty and smudges hot wax in my crack. I lay there wondering if my haemorrhoids are exposed and what would happen if hot wax gets down too far? I am now somewhat mortified because after seven pregnancies and three live births I doubt that my rectum is as pretty as the young girls that she has seen. Then I begin to question myself about why I wasn't concerned about my vajayjay not matching the young girls standards. WHat is wrong with my brain, seriously!
Anyway, the booty waxing was the least painful and dare I say nearly pleasant after all the suffering she just put me through. It is quick, just two strips and I think that she may have put powder there afterwards but I was still lost in thought about my ass not being beautiful from the point of view that she had. She tells me we are done and I bounce off that table like tigger. I stand proudly and look down and without any thought I exclaim, "I just paid $50 to have my beautiful vajayjay look like a plucked chicken?" To my horror I have red bumps and stretch marks … that is right ladies, if you get as big as I did while pregnant and swollen to the point of unrecognizable proportions you get the battle scars forever, even in places you never expect. I disappointedly put my panties and shorts back on while she explains that I should exfoliate and not to wait longer than 3 weeks for the next treatment. After 4 treatments it should hurt less or I should be more accustomed to it.
So today I am typing this entry with a pretty, yet stretch marked vajayjay and am perfectly smooth EVERYWHERE. Will I endure it again? HELL YA! I mean, if I don't all of that would have been for nothing. Will I have it ALL removed again? NOPE! Next time I am leaving a little to give it a little character while hiding some of the battle wounds. I have decided that I will do it four times and if it gets easier I will continue but if not, I will abandon the idea.
Now, I have a question for you all… do guys get their testies waxed? What are your experiences with waxing? Let me know that I am not alone in this :P
