    I don't find it hurts; the first time I had it done it did a bit, but it depends on your pain threshold. If you want to find out get some home wax strips and do a little tester on the back of your leg. If I go o get mine done I usually have my bikini line done too so I'm always in my undies:rolleyes: :lol: But for just a 3/4 leg you can probably wear shorts or something if you're not happy about underwear.

    Yeah, if you don't want to wear your underwear, wear shorts or something - like butterfly i have a full leg and bikini wax done at the same time, so i'm always in my undies.

    Tip: Take a couple of paracetamol half an hour before having the wax done. it really does help.

    Just go to the salon in them - they don't supply you with them if that's what you mean. Oh, and NEVER get it done juts before or during your period; your nerve endings are more sensitive then and trust me, THAT'S when it hurts like a bitch!

    Every few weeks, I have a half leg wax...

    I go in wearing trousers - take them off when I'm having it done, then put them back on when finished.

    They put a towel over your private bits/upper leg, to make it a bit more comfortable.

    It doesn't hurt that much, but don't tense your legs before they rip the strip off :eek2: (My mum does mine as she is a beautician and works from home...i wear me undies with her)

    But I find that waxing takes off too much skin and I end up with white legs again :(
