Of course, anybody else too 
So I was waxing and instantaneously I got... a bruise I guess. Just looked like a bunch of broken blood vessels or something. Not too interested in how to get rid of it as time is a healer but I'm curious on what could have caused it or what I could do to prevent that. Its never happened before and it looks all weird

It is just a bruise by the sounds, you've not quite pulled the skin tight enough and it's pulled it a bit. Not the nicest of bruises, will probably be reallllyyy sore tomorrow, unless you're lucky. Goes away as a normal bruise would though.
To prevent... hmm.... make sure you've stretched the skin as much as humanly possible... and try to pull the strip (if that's what you're using) paralell to the skin, rather than pull it up.
