Brazilian Waxing

What Is a Brazilian Waxing?
It is a pubic hair removal style by pulling the hair out from the root with a resin wax. This mean removes all the hair from the front all the way in-between to the behind except a small strip in the shape of a square, rectangle, oval or triangle is left in the front.

The origin of this waxing style is believed from Brazil which are famous for the women wearing tiny, thong bikinis. Now you can see where this wax got its name and origin. The focus of is on your bum.

Compare Shaving Pubic Area to Waxing
Stop Shaving Pubic Area and Start Waxing. You are only cutting the hair from the surface of the skin with shaving which causes the hair to grow back above the surface very quickly. Shaving will also cause thicker hairs grow. Waxing on the other hand removes the entire hair to its follicle from the root. Waxing is the better hair removal method if you want a longer lasting result and finer hair grow. How long the hair stays away will vary from 2 weeks to 6 weeks and differ from each individual.

Waxing Lasts Longer than Shaving Pubic Area
Hair grows in cycles: growing, resting and shedding. When you first start waxing, it will last about two weeks. If you continue to wax on a regular basis, it can last for up to six weeks but this isn’t the case for everyone, as some people just have faster growing hair than others. Waxing an area frequently over time can also damage the hair follicle, and cause it to stop growing hair.

You can do your own waxing if you are just taking the hair outside your bikini line provided you wax carefully and follow the waxing instructions. Be caution not to break hairs above or below the surface as they will "grow" back much quicker than if the entire hair follicle was removed.

You should get it done by professional. 

Brazilian Waxing Tips
A lot of women and men opt for a Brazilian Waxing because they like the feeling of the entire pubic area being totally, or almost hair-free. Because of the specialty nature of this service, it requires extra care. Take note of these tips, so you can get and keep great results. 

Before Brazilian Waxing Preparation: 
Your skin is often more sensitive the time near your period and waxing can be more painful than normal. So your appointment shouldn't be any closer than a couple of days before or after your period. Most places understandably won’t perform a Brazilian while you’re on your period. 

Shower and lightly exfoliate your entire bikini area right before your appointment using warm, not hot water. Make sure you’re extra clean. 

Don’t use any lotions in bikini area. 

You need some hair growth for the wax to hold onto, but not too long which can make the waxing hurt more than it needs to. Let the technician trim hair down to just the right length at your appointment, or follow the salon's specific instructions for trimming. 

After Care:

Don’t wear tight panties for the next few days.

Keep hands away from touching freshly waxed skin, as this can encourage irritation or small pimples. 

Don’t take a hot bath for the rest of the day. 

Avoid sun beds, saunas or steam rooms for the next two days.

Avoided Sexual activity for at least 24 - 48 hours. 

Use a mild exfoliator two days later.
