Like a lot of the therapists have said on here it really depends on you and your sensitivity, my sister in law crys like a baby having her legs waxed...I have other clients who sit happily chatting away on the phone whilst I do their bikini!! I trained with Lycon, and when I knew that we would be using each other as models I worried about it all night (I had a very bad waxing experience at college) but you know what it really wasnt that bad....and now I do my own! There are little areas that hurt more than others, the area on your pubis and to the sides of the labia but apart from that its nada!! Take a couple of paracetamol, dont go the few days before your period as you will be more sensitive then adn more than any thing dont stress on it....you will love the results and wonder what all the fuss was about, also remember that the more you have it done the less painful it becomes as the hair follicle becomes more damaged the hair grows back finer and more tapered. Good luck adn let us know how you get on! xxxxx
