I must be getting old..shapes,colours...WHY.If anyone manages to get that far do they really care if its green in the shape of a kangaroo.Just neatly trimmed and not hanging out the bottom of your trouser legs is sufficient in my book.

I did think that maybe colouring the hair may be a step to far!
I recently added bikini gems to my treatment list as i had a few people asking about them.....they are more popular than i thought they'd be!

I know.Its all a bit of novelty i just never get drawn into all that side of things because you have to then consider allergies and can you colour after waxing etc etc and roots, is it permanent i dont know its more of a hairdressers job! .I guess it depends on whether its something you would offer permanently or just at the mo for those who ask.If you offer it permanently you have to provide various colours and then thats outlay i wouldnt bother.Or if i did id say buy your own dye and i'll put it on but that would be to someone i knew well.

You're not old mate, but a green kangaroo! I would laugh my head off. I did (when younger and before getting it done professionally) do my own and managed to get a teapot shape .

I am really curious about these bikini gems, I have e-mailed smilegems and nobody seems to want to tell me how they are applied. Without getting to in-depth, do you have to be completely waxed before they will stick?

Are they popular?

Curiosity only!! Teri x

They only stick to skin and are not meant to last more than a night really but of course you can reuse them they are quite good quality crystal

as gill said they stick to the skin, they have a stickey backing which you peel back and place your crystals in position....are you going to the show in feb? they will definitely be there so you could talk to someone about them

I had a client who asked me about this,she was wanting a colour to match the hair that hadn't gone grey on her bikini area.

Grey pubic hair seems to be the main reason why ladies are wanting this area coloured.I havn't heard of anyone wanting any outlandish colours.

I have never coloured anyones bikini,my advice is do a nice Brazilian then trim the remaining hair really short,that way greys(if that's their issue)are nicely hidden.When they're long they stand out like a sore thumb.

Now theres a thing i guess if you are a bit grey down there it would be nice to have a things touched up maybe eyelash tint would work.

I was going to put that maybe an eyelash tint would work,after all its sensitive enough for the eye area I would imagine it would be fine to use down below,you would need an awful lot though depending on the amount of greys.

I think it would be a good invention for someone to make pubic hair colouring,maybe there is already a product available on the market eh!!!
