I've heard of salon's reusing hot wax. In fact I had a friend who started at a salon and the first thing she was told was "go and remove the pubes from yesterday's wax". She left the same day she started. I suppose it's possible the same thing could have happened in NJ. If when you're having your brazilian wax and there is some bleeding, which occurs quite often and then they reuse the wax, it's not surprising that an infection occurs. Not saying that is what happened, just sayin' ... and squicking myself. (and suddenly wondering if I should cancel my waxing appointment for tomorrow, because I'm freaked out) Um, ew...

Sorry, it is very disgusting, especially if you consider that many places use hot wax for lip waxing too...
*Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!*
(no need to beat me, I'm off to do that myself)

This is why I do it at home.
And why I still shave my armpits. I have not figured out how to do that one without ending up all bruised.

I don't think I could. And armpits are very difficult to do alone. Every now and then I try and fail horribly and just end up in pain.

Waxed vaginas are way overrated. Just saying.

My back slightly propped up against the headboard and holding a large magnified mirror with my feet. I would shave there, but I've nicked myself one too many times.

In a monologue Jerry Seinfeld remarks about female inconsistency. A woman can rip hair from her bodies by the roots, but she screams if she sees a mouse.

I don't scream at mice, I don't scream at snakes, wasps freak me out though. When one of my dogs died, I went into the surgery room where my vet was showing me his internal organs with no problem. However when my other dog broke a toenail and had to have it removed I had to leave the room. Maybe because I know how much it hurts to have a toenail removed (trust me it's a lot worse than waxing).

Is anybody besides me getting images in their head of back-alley Brazilian waxing businesses springing up? Women going out of state to obtain illicit pubic waxing? The cops busting illegal Brazilian waxing parlors in the back rooms of other businesses? I had something impressive to say but this totally derailed me. Ironibte-utterly and totally. NOW I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE!

Salons reusing wax? That's disgusting. And blatantly unhygienic. I'm sure there are health codes about NOT doing that, and they could get into trouble for it, but as long as they're not getting caught for it they'll probably just keep doing it. Thank god I never venture into salons except for my semi-annual hair trim.
And I agree with Mattias and Vene--waxing is overrated. I never fancied that prepubescent look, anyway, particularly not on myself. I'll keep my natural upholstery, thank you very much.
