Manscaping – Manzilian Wax

Friday, July 10th, 2009

40-year-old-virgin

Long thought of as a woman’s prerogative, waxing is making great strides in gender equality. Men have caught on to the many benefits that waxing offers: smooth, longer-lasting results. In fact, it’s the last stop before permanent hair removal, so it does have its advantages. The results last two to four weeks, and continued waxing leads to diminished hair growth over time.

The Brazilian bikini wax for men is becoming an ever more popular for the body conscious gent. Some wonder, what man would willingly allow his more intimate parts to be exposed to hot wax before having that wax ripped from his body? The answer is more guys than you might think!

While many women are familiar with waxing as a hair removal technique, a lot of men have no knowledge of it outside of that hilarious (if not painful) scene in the film The 40 Year-Old Virgin with Steve Carrell. So if this is your only point of reference, here’s how its done!

A Brazilian bikini wax for men is similar to the waxing women experience. Waxing involves the application of warm wax on an area where you wish to remove hair; sometimes cloth is applied over it, sometimes not. After the area is smoothed, the wax is ripped away in one motion against the direction of hair growth. One of the most-touted benefits of waxing is that, unlike with shaving or tweezing, the waxed area will stay hair-free for weeks. When the hair does grow back, it’s generally finer and softer than before.

A Manscaping Project

On the other side of the spectrum, another man is suffering from a case of too much hair … on his derriere. Andrea from Tampa, Florida writes that her husband Richard’s bottom is extremely hairy … and it’s getting thicker. The couple joins The Doctors onstage, and Cindy from Pink Cheeks salon gives the hairy hubby a treatment behind a frosted screen. She uses refined spun honey beeswax and Egyptian cotton muslin to remove Richard’s butt fuzz. The wax lasts about six to eight weeks, and Dr. Travis says that professional waxing is preferable to home kits, which can be dangerous.

Dr. Oz says if you get a Brazilian wax, make sure the wax isn’t too hot.
Is it safe to have a Brazilian wax?

Dionne wants to know if it’s safe to get a Brazilian wax, which is a bikini wax that takes “all the hair off from the front, the back, the bottom,” Dr. Oz says.

Dr. Oz says it is “absolutely safe” to get a Brazilian wax, although your skin is fragile and prone to pimples for a short time afterward. There are some products you can put on your skin to prevent the pimples, he says.

If you are going to go Brazilian, Dr. Oz says to make sure the wax is clean—don’t use wax that has been used on someone else. Also, check the wax to make sure it’s not too hot.

Hard Wax

Hard Wax

Hard Wax


Hard wax is much more gentle than soft wax so removal won\’t be as intense as soft wax is. Once cooled enough put the wax on the are to remove. Let it cool and slowly peel up the section in a quick movement. Always go in the direction of the hair growth. Pat down the area with your hand. And repeat process if needed. Waxing with hard wax many feel is the best way to go.

Things To Know About Hard Wax

As you can see waxing with hard wax sometimes takes a little more work than most other things do. The biggest problem you will notice is getting use to working with it. Soft wax is totally different and will cause more pain than hard wax as it gives more. People need to understand that about hard and soft wax. Most people will tell you that working with hard wax would be their choice.

Remember to use soothing creams on the areas that you have work done on. This is because many times redness occurs and creams seem to lessen the pain and speed up healing which is a very important process in waxing. Always remember to avoid the eye area with these types of waxes. Waxing is a never ending process that seems to be changing all the time. Better innovations are coming out to make this type of hair removal less painful than ever before. I see no reason why this trend won\’t continue in the future.

Waxing with hard wax isn\’t for everyone. The people who have it done often will tell you how much they love it. In the end though that decision will be yours. Waxing gives you way to remove that unwanted hair at a very low cost. This is the nice part about waxing it\’s low cost and quick. Many people feel that is good enough for them.

What to Expect in a Brazilian Bikini Wax for Men

Friday, June 26th, 2009

So you’re feeling courageous and have decided to go ahead with the ultimate wax job. Here’s what you’ll probably experience:

  • If you’ve done your homework and consulted a trained aesthetician before your appointment, he or she should have told you to let your hair grow in the desired area and to possibly take pain medication before you come in.
  • Leave your inhibitions at the door. You’re going to be exposed (very exposed) during the process.
  • Powder will be dusted over the area to be waxed if you sweat.
  • Warm or hot wax will be spread on the genital area in sections. The wax will probably be covered with cotton cloths. If hard wax is use no clothe strips are needed. (hard wax is the lease painful)
  • The aesthetician will then remove the strips, with the wax attached, in one smooth motion. This may be pretty painful. This will be repeated with each section.
  • Any stray hairs will be removed with tweezers. If you already chose a patch of hair to remain, this can now be trimmed and shaped.

Consult a Professional

Be advised that you really want to consult a licensed professional for this procedure. This isn’t like an eyebrow tweezing; painful complications can result if done by someone who’s not as knowledgeable about this process as they need to be. Likewise, this isn’t a home grooming treatment you can expect to perform on yourself with any sort of good results.

Finding a trained aesthetician isn’t difficult. If you know someone who can recommend one, that’s preferable to just looking in the phone book and hoping for the best. Before you go in for the treatment, ask a lot of questions. If the aesthetician doesn’t seem educated enough about the process or seems annoyed that you’re asking questions, go someplace else.

 

7 Reasons Why you Should Consider It, Brazilian Waxing

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

72301840
The Brazilian wax is the next level up from the bikini wax
the former removes all pubic hair while the bikini wax leaves some hair.

The Brazilian wax is more popular than ever today and most women who have one are delighted – not only are they fashionable, but they give a women freedom and are sensual for both men and women.
Origins and popularity

The Brazilian wax originated in Brazil, so women wanting to wear the then-new thong bikinis, which was not widely popular inside the United States at the time.

Brazilian Waxing
became popular in the 1990s in the US before spreading worldwide.

1. It’s hygienic
Waxing of the public area is not new and centuries ago in ancient civilizations such as Persia and India women were waxing their pubic hair.
One of the main reasons is hygiene.
Pubic hair is magnet for germs that can cause bad odors and a variety of skin irritations. Shaving off the pubic hair will dramatically reduce the risk of these problems

2. It Gives you Freedom
You can wear that skimpy bikini, or swimsuit with confidence and lingerie that’s as revealing as you wish without the problem of unslightly hair running your look

3. It’s Sensual
Women have reported frequently they feel more sensual and have more intense orgasms after having a Brazilian wax. Do men like it?
In a recent poll 91% men said that they found it both more attractive and erotic.

4. It’s cheap
Today a Brazilian wax treatment at a salon is not just for the rich with the rise in the popularity of people waxing Brazilian style salons are offering it as a standard beauty treatment and prices are affordable to all.
You can get DIY Waxing kits you can use at home but these require some caution and you are best of to use a professional waxer in a salon to avoid accidents

5. It doesn’t take long
In around about 30 minutes a skilled waxer will have the treatment completed, so it’s really as quick as having your nails done.
Like your nails though you need regular treatments as pubic hair re grows.

6. The pain is not as bad as most women think!
The pain is not as bad as many women believe it would be (it is still painful though) and it is tolerable for most women, furthermore as you do more waxing treatments the pain drops down as your skin becomes used to the treatment.

7. The Brazilian wax is more popular than ever and if you want to try it and you’re not sure about the pain start with a Bikini wax first to see how you feel.

So it’s hygienic, sensual, liberating, affordable and takes very little time so there is a lot to be said for waxing Brazilian style, if you have not considered all the advantages add them up and take the plunge.
