Waxing VS Shaving.. Hmm, very good decision to make. You either suffer razor burns and bumps for all the weeks of healing from them or suffer the pain from waxing. Who can tell me which one is easier and better?? I mean shaving is more cheaper and easier, but eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeegggggghhh, it hurts too afterwards!

I will never evr try waxing, its really a pain. I used nair hair remover and shave for maintenance of growing hairs. Always pat your legs with warm water to avoid cuts and burns and very important is to shave slowly. Then moisturize afterwards.

Bluishrose, I know what you mean about the moisturizing, but for me it seems like even that doesn't help. I've tried it all. Sometimes the itching and burning from the razor burns are so bad, I can't bear the discomfort. It's amazing when I wax though, it's a pretty painful at times, but that's it, I have no more pain after that. Then I have a smooth feeling with no burning, itching discomfort. Should I get a part time job for waxing my tush, lol.

I've tried both in my years, and they both have their good and bad sides. Like you mentioned there is the pain of waxing, but the hair takes longer to grow back. On the other hand as you mentioned shaving is quicker, cheaper and doesn't hurt but yet you almost have to do it every day. personally I choose shaving as I'ma wimp and don't like the pain.

I'm such a whimp when it comes to pain as well, ahahaa. But I much rather wax seriously, like you sad it takes longer to grow back. Thing is how expensive it is. My girl that I go to, It's $60 and then the tip, it's alot of money. Sometimes my hormones make it grow too soon, lol. "too much info here haha".

I shave my legs but definately wax my eye brows. Somethings i think are ok to shave. But others no. Like i shave my under arms but would never think about waxing. I also dont do bikini waxes either. OUCH! I dont know how people can stand it. I like shaving although if not careful you can make yourself bleed.

ewww maybe we can wax your baby kat! Well that is a load off my nerves. I thought that the brazilian wax would feel the same as my eyebrows. I actually am use to the pain of my eyebrows. Also if it dont burn or sting than i think they dont get enough of the hair out! But this place i go to only charges $8.00. I dont think they do bikini area.

Ejobsuccess, when they wax the other half down there, they use a different wax. Very different from the one your used to in the eyebrows. Believe me, and trust me when I tell you, the pain is less uncomfortable than that from your eyebrows. I swear, I've had my eyebrows done and thought they tore my whole forehead off, lol. Brazilian or bikini which ever you decide are way different. Maybe we can make an appointment and have our tushes waxed on-waxed off-waxed on-waxed off, lol.
