I'm seriously rethinking my stance on the 'brazilian' after reading the article. I started to imagine the upkeep too. It would be a huge pain in more ways than one. As it is, I must have my top hair done every 4 weeks.

Mousepod~ Loved your story. Of course the NYers always know what's going on.

I have both a Prada bag and wear Smashbox makeup daily, but have yet to get a full Brazilian. My sister however has a faux Prada bag I bought her on the Upper East Side for $20, wears Almay and has been sporting no hair down there for years. I'm a landing strip girl, myself.

The End.

What I do down there I do for me...makes things more fun. I dislike the upkeep but it's worth it in my mind. Of course I don't paint my nails or dye my hair or wear makeup, so my list is short, making this less of an inconvenience.

Darn UvaGirl for starting this thread and making me post stuff like this!

I've never waxed and have kind of a fear of it...but the prospect of up to 6 weeks without shaving (that's at least 21 times!) is starting to lure me in.

The only thing I've ever waxed were my caterpillar eyebrows. But, like I said, since my friend let the cat out of the bag (har har), my other friends and I have pretty much been tempted to try the nether reigon waxing... but really... are too lazy to do that.

okay...add the upkeep issue to my reservations about this procedure. If it's painful & embarrassing, I don't want to be doing it every 4 weeks

Hmmmm....

Be good. Just keep your mouth shut and move on. Nothing good can come from a post to this thread. Stay strong....

Maybe you need a merkin for those cold days?

Not Afraid · 03-23-2005, 03:13 PM

Really, it's only necessary during baithing suit season.

Hmmmm....

Shaving it may not be embarrassing or truly painful, but it can be really itchy and you have to do it way too often.

I can see the pros & cons on both sides.

I just started getting my legs waxed, and I had the bikini line done this last time. Not so bad, actually the gal doing it yelped more than I did.

I don't know about the whole shebang though- I don't think I want to look prepubescent. And I just got a really nasty mental picture... I won't share. Give you all nightmares. And by the time I get back I will have forgotten it. I hope.

A friend of mine has hers done, totally. She likes it. I just know that with my skin being weird, shaving is out of the question. Nair, or waxing, or electrolysis.

**hugs**
