Another shaving thread/question [sorry]

IanTrcp

My friend is going away tomorrow for 10 days in Barbados, staying in a nice hotel with a luxury spa. He's thinking about getting them to wax his legs rather than experimenting with chemicals or razors at home. As a first timer he has a number of questions...

- just how painful might this be? [scale of 1-10, 6=childbirth, 9=kick in the balls]
- is waxing definitely better than shaving in terms of finish + longevity?
- which should be done first, waxing or tanning?

Thanks in advance (on his behalf obviously).

- just how painful might this be? Don't know as I've never had my legs waxed, but tell him that if girls can manage to have it done how big a gilr is he?

- is waxing definitely better than shaving in terms of finish + longevity? Yes

- which should be done first, waxing or tanning? Waxing, as his legs will tan easier without the hair [/b]

Waxing is not a problem at all and is better than shaving, as long as you don't have sensitive skin. Wax first then tanning will work faster.

I sincerely wish I hadn't stopped shaving my legs over winter, when all my bandages had to be removed at the hospital it bl :shock: :shock: dy wrecked!

Nah! It won't hurt one tiny little bit :twisted:

Let us know how he got on.

I used to get my upper body waxed and the only bit that was a little tender was the lower sides (at the bottom of my deltoids).

Now, the groin area would be a different matter!

Advise your FRIEND that shaving isn't that much trouble and it doesn't have to be a perfect job.

To be fair Barrie_G, I think his legs are a lot hairier than most girls to start with....! Mind you I've only ever seen southern girls legs so possibly wrong to generalise.

I'd wax then tan - but don't do fake tan straight after waxing - or it'l collect in the open pores and give an interesting effect...

Had mine waxed and it doesn't hurt.

It's longer laasting than shaving.

Wax prior to tanning.

You haven't been on a night out in the North East then?

Hi there.

You definitely want to shave first - then let some stubble grow back in, and then go for the wax. Waxing a v.hairy leg is not going to be nice.
