The Brazilian verses the smear

March 8th, 2010

Arrhh the Brazilian/Hollywood wax. I find them extremely painful and often wonder why grooming for women has become so over the top and yet I am hooked with the results…

I hear my threapist say “some women don’t feel the pain at all” - who are you and can I trade places with you?

I have been getting waxed for years - perhaps even a decade (am I that old?). There are the obvious benefits but everytime I get up on that table I think why am I here and where is the valium?

The other aspect I feel quite odd about is the fact that as the years have gone on the therapist’s  have got more stuck in. Today during my Hollywood wax I decided that in the last year all the wax’s I have had have been way more intimate than the old days.

Are therapist’s  taking it to far? I am being nudged very close to my confort zone. I am not easily intimdated and not particularly shy about these things but often I wonder if they have seen more of me than most of my Doctors or boyfriends! I definately find it more uncomfortable than having a smear!

I am a perfectionist myself but things have gone too far! Pressing one’s feet sole to sole while the therapist spreads hot wax on my inner folds is not my idea of a hot lunch date!

    So true Kate. I recently went for my smear test and was thinking how quick it was compared to going for my monthly wax. Speaking of wax, Inna asks about you now and then. Yep, I still go to her and yep, she still tries to flog her stuff just not as intesely.
