Request a Good Waxer

 

 

Even if you’ve never been there before, ask a friend for their recommendation of who to go to. Trust me, you don’t want to get stuck with a sloppy waxer or someone who can’t keep conversation while she’s staring at your lady parts. Just use the drop down menu on the website to ensure you have a great experiment

 

Be Prepared for a Sales Pitch

After you’re done with the wax they will try to sell you their entire product line. I’ve used it and trust me its not worth it. Just tell them no thank you and don’t seem like you’re on the fence or they’ll pounce.

 

Make an Early Appointment

Trust me, if you make an appointment for 5:00 PM you’re gonna be worrying about the pain all day long. Get it over with in the morning and spend the rest of the day feeling fabulous

Take Some Advil

Especially if you’re getting a bikini wax, take some advil and numb yourself for forthcoming pain. Whether or not it makes a difference I can’t say, but at least you’ll feel better knowing you tried.
