ASK VALENTINA, NJ SPA GURU:QUESTIONS ABOUT BRAZILIAN WAXING


Question: Hi Valentina, I do not live in NJ but I have followed your blog postings on waxing so I wanted to ask you something about the Brazilian bikini wax. I am considering having the procedure done for the first time to surprise my fiancée. Will I be able to have sex after I get waxed? And when the hair starts to grow in will it bother my fiancée when we have sex? I know when I shave the stubbles can be scratchy.
Valentina: I definitely do not recommend having sex within 24 hours after your first Brazilian wax. Until you get used to the procedure, your skin will be red, tender, and perhaps a little swollen.
Sexual intercourse, friction or tight clothing immediately after your waxing can irritate the area. So plan to have your Brazilian wax a few days before the actual surprise.
As for stubble, the nice aspect of waxing versus shaving is that the hair grows in softer.
When you shave, you cut the hair at the skin’s surface. The hair then has a flat, jagged edge. It’s course when it begins to pop back through the skin’s surface again. Waxing removes the hair from the root, so a new hair must re-grown. The tip is soft and pointed, not stubbly. Also, in time, less hair will grow back which means less frequent visits for your wax appointment.
