Stripping It Off at Strip

“Scared lah”….“Aiyer…pain” are what you’d normally hear when some chiq tries to convince her girlfriend to try out a Brazilian wax. I, on the other hand was determined to find out what’s all this hype about stripping it all off about.

It is best to fix an appointment with your stripperellas as they would normally have their services placed back to back since it only takes around 15 minutes tops to beautify your nether region. What normally happens once you step into Strip is :

- They’d ask you what waxing services you’re looking for (Brazilian, Bikini, etc.) if you didn’t already tell them over the phone
- They’d ask you if you wanna go to the ladies’ (or men’s) before they start
- You’d be asked to strip your bottom off
- They’d normally use hard wax for your visible hair and soft wax for tiny and hard to remove hair. The thing about soft wax is that, some people might be a wee bit sensitive to it as it strips not only your baby hair but also dead skin cells. So if you have sensitive skin, make sure to apply any form of after-wax cream diligently to soothe your skin from possible over-redness.

And you’re done. I have a very high pain threshold so Brazilian wax was no problem for me but for you girls who are sensitive to pain, you might not wanna be over-adventurous and opt for a Brazilian. Instead, you could go for a Bikini wax for a start. But if you insist, screaming is ok at the waxing salon *smiles*.

On my first time there, I bought a cream specially for my girl to prevent ingrown hair and keep it soft and supple. The cream comes in a mini tub but it’ll last you quite awhile. In terms of hair growth, on average, most girls would go back to the salon around 6-8 weeks (around 1/2 an inch of regrowth) after their last strip but it depends solely on your individual hair growth rate. For me, I would normally go back for maintenance every 6 weeks.

The stripperellas are really professional and accommodating to ensure maximum comfort while you’re there and I guess, also to make sure that you don’t suffer any form of waxing phobia after your first time.

I really like Brazilian waxes mostly because it promotes hygiene while some would say better you-know-what. So do give it a go with your girlfriends or even your boyfriend (boyzilian wax)
