to do or not to do: brazilian wax.

i swore i was getting a brazilian wax. several times before. chickened out every time. i mean, do i really need one?

you know what a brazilian is, right? it removes everything. from the front to the back. yep. everything except a thin strip of hair in front.

and it's painful. so i hear. essence also reports that it can cause infections.

essence gives these 3 ways to protect yourself:

1. check for state cosmetology licenses. you really don't want just anyone down there, right? right.

2. ask if they reuse the wax. if yes, bounce.

3. better-trained staff may cost more but it's worth it.
