WooHoo, Amy. It's great you had a positive experience -- I think that makes a difference with most things in life.

Now your BF has something to look forward to, and a reason to work on a speedy recovery! Let us know what he thinks ;o)

OK! To show my stupidity, “it's not red and swollen anymore” gives my dirty mind a hint. So, I must ask what's a "Brazilian"?

It's a waxing technique to remove ALL the hair on your privates except for a small "landing strip" in front sometimes. Men love it because it looks sexy and women often experience a lot of extra sensation. Silk panties and tight blue jeans make walking around with a Brazilian a very interesting experience after the irritation subsides.

Laser hair removal is a permanent version of this but takes several visits and can be a bit expensive. The upside is that it lasts forever and repeated waxing can be painful.
"I am a guy and had this done two years ago and it totally rocks."

Be careful though because some men are uncomfortable with the "little girl" look that a Brazilian imparts.

The "little girl" look never entered my mind until I read it here.

Rich, I have a hubby that doesn't care for the little girl look. When I first brought up shaving or getting waxed, that was his first comment.

Haha, my friend had to explain to her mom what it was once, we were like freshmen in h.s. and her mom was like 50 lol!!


A Brazilian Wax is when they wax off the hair *down there*. You can have them take it all off or leave a landing strip, they'll do the back if you want, it's all up to you. Soooo... It was red and swollen and felt warm afterwards, but it calmed down and now I'm lookin good lol. =]

That is so cool. Did it hurt real bad and how long did it take. I am so sick of shaving and ouch at the ingrown hairs on the bikini line.

My husband was very vocal on leaving a little patch because of the little girl thought. So I do but my thinking is..woman who have had babies look a little different down there so that shows maturity.

Telling the 50 year old mom what a Brazilian is.......I am almost 37 and my husband had to tell me what cameltoe meant last week when we saw a 7th grade girl we know has that as a screenname on her myspace. I remember in highschool giving my mom the definition of boner.

I need to get up the courage for the Brazilian. I certainly can't do it myself. My best friend waxes and we have seen each other have babies and gone to gyno appointments together so I may let her do the bikini area for me to start with before I go any lower. I do have a high tolerance for pain. I figure if I can handle a brazilian then maybe I would go get that long wanted tattoo.
