What to look for in a Brazilian Waxer

When choosing your Brazilian waxer, make sure to do some research into the facility you’re considering.  Start with a call to get a feel on the knowledge of the staff, do they know what type of wax is used, is the Brazilian something they are very familiar with or just a once in a while thing?

Does the facility use brand new wax? OR do they use a new stick to dip into the wax each time?  both scenarios are acceptable, but make sure they do not double dip!  Of course you have no way of knowing if they do this to other clients but most likely they will treat you as they do others and it should all be good, right?!  Also with the Brazilian, make sure the place is clean, it’s also recommended that the technician wear gloves.  The parts de-haired by the Brazilian wax are not areas you want to introduce to any bacterias.

Completely Bare at home wax kit Although it is highly advisable to go to a professional for a Brazilian you may just be interested in a regular bikini wax and hair removal.  In that case, look into Completely Bare’s at home wax kit.  It comes with everything you need to perform a wax on your lip, underarm, bikini, legs and more in one little package.  Looks super good, let me know your experience if you try it.

It’s All About Your Hair

April 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

May FlowersWhat is that saying about May Flowers?  oh yeah, April Showers!  It rained here so there must be some truth to it!  I just hope the flowers hold up their end of the bargain and are brilliant. 

My tulips and daffodils are popping out all over the place from under the snow.  I cannot wait for spring but my hair is def not ready to be seen.   Too bad there’s no decent beauty salon where I am.

I’ll be in New York City soon and I may just have to take Antonio Prieto up on his sale.  Seems he wanted to do something special to celebrate his 25th Anniversary in business.  He’s offering all kinds of beauty prizes and discounts. Prieto is a world renowned hair specialist. Check out the The Beauty of Life for the whole schedule of events at his salon.  I’m guessing it will be worth the trip!
