But I am not complaining, mind. I love the hassles girls endure to be pretty so ogling them makes me happier
Does give me what looks like a rash for a good few hours afterwards, though, so it's not as good as shaving if you need to go straight out!
No more painful than an epilator (probably less), easy to do yourself at home and proven effective.
On his show when he removed the hair he didn't seem to flinch so it didn't seem like he was in any pain. It could differ from person to person of course. I'm going to try it sometime.
:eek: ** winces **
I've tried waxing and I cried.
but it was quite effective if a bit painful - im going to try and use mine in the bath as i have that type, so perhaps if you had one like that and used it under the warm water it would hurt less?:chin:
if you want a hair free bikini line...you ll wont care what you do to get rid of it !
I imagine that hurts a lot.
If waxing hurts you, epilating will too. But if you're ok with one, you'll be ok with the other. Depends how you do with that kind of pain - people vary.
As Kaff pointed out, the only difference between waxing and epilating is the length of time it takes for the hair to be removed - in waxing it's pulled out in one swift movement, whereas you move the epilator over your legs in the same way you would a razor, so it's slower. But the effect is the same.
Both obviously last longer than shaving or hair removal creams, as these only remove the hair as far as the surface of your skin, so don't pull it out by the root.
