Wax On Wax Off

First off, this shit hurts. Not as bad as Steve Carrell made it out to be, but pretty close. I wanted to yell "Kelly Clarkson" but honestly I couldn't maintain that focus. Do you ever feel pain so bad that you have to laugh. Like when your friends hits you superhard in the stomach or the arm, the only reaction is to laugh in disbelief.

That is what waxing feels like. They say a bikini wax / Brazilian hurts 1000x more, so ladies on behalf of all dudes everywhere. Anyhow it was definitely an interesting experience. I decided to take my sister and bro-in-law with me. I was hoping they could provide some moral support, and can take some pics. Also, given all the shit I have given my sister, I figured this is the best gift I can give her.

Of course, when we were driving there, she started to scare me and I actually began to lose my confidence. I began to wonder what I got myself into. Rather than panicking I remember some lessons from meditation - all sensation is temporary. Somehow that helped me alot. I got to the place, and was the only dude there. The receptionist let a small smirk escape when I mentioned that I was here for waxing- oh well, i would do much worse if I was in her shoes.

They say a picture is worth 1000 words. These next couple videos will describe the process much better than I can ever in words. The funny thing is I let my sister pull a couple strips, since she was begging to do so. It gave her such pleasure that I was in such pain. I then promised her that I will bring this up when she goes into labor.

I was pretty lucky that my bro-in-law was there. While my sister was savoring every moment, he shared the pain with me; he said he felt each strip being pulled off my body and was there to offer sympathy. After I was done with my chest and my shoulders, I debated whether to do my back. I dont have a hairy back, but I figured might as do the full thing once in my life. when the lady said it would be an additional $40 , my sister said to skip it. thankfully, my bro told me that I literally had a line of hair on my back , and there was an outline of a square of the area that had not been waxed. Just as a FYI, an area looks extremely hairy when compared to an area that has been waxed. So of course, I took the plunge and got my back waxed as well. They say the back is supposed to hurt less because there are less nerve endings - for some reason, it hurt 100x more. No pain, no gain I guess.

Will I do this again? I got to admit, afterwards my chest and stomach felt like a baby's ass, so I kept feeling it up. It was that soft. Even a couple girls who knew that I was getting it done agreed that the softness was unreal. Unfortunately, I dont think waxing is my thing.
1.) I had a slight reaction to the wax, so I had all these red bumps everywhere. Not SEXY.
2.) All my follicles were open, so it looked like I had these pin holes everywhere. NOT sexy.
3.) I did not realize how much the hair made my boobs and stomach look smaller. Fuck me.
4.) The hair has started to grow back. And its been a week. I thought this was supposed to last 6 months. Fuck me. For one week of smoothness, this procedure is not worth it. I think going fwd, whomever I end up, will just have to trim me with some clippers.
5.) Like the movie, the lady who waxes you giggles everytime you are in pain . I wanted to cuss at her, but my sister knew her so I restrained myself.
6.) Price surprisingly was not an issue - I got my the upper half of my body done for $56, which i thought was pretty good. I laughed when i saw a brazilian for a dude costs $68. Again, why would you do that?

Btw, and dudes who get brazilians - are you fucking nuts?
