Hi ladies,
Iv popped over from hair as I desperatly need your advise!
Iv been for an underarm wax this afternoon with a new salon and I can't tell you how much pain I'm in!!
Iv had my underarm waxed for about 2 years now and never had a problem.
About 2 weeks ago I shaved my underarm as I was going out and the lady who usually does them let me down last minute. So I booked somewhere else for today.
First of all I did say to her if you don't think it's long enough yet just say.
She said it was fine.
She used some kind of roll on comtraption? I'm used to it being done with the wax that sets on you then you pull it off. Sorry I don't know the technical term.
Then used strips to pull it off well she went over the area a couple of time which I know you're not really supposed to do, so I said if it's not coming out its fine. I'm not dark haired so I can cope for another week. But she continued to roll this thing under my arm which hurt like hell on its own.
Anyway Iv come home and my armpits are on fire!!!!!
To make matters worse there are still quite a few hairs left and when I put my arms down they prickle my skin.
Is there anything you ladies can suggest to help the pain?
It's my birthday tomorrow and I'm out at the weekend. I just want to be pain free.
Thanks in advance.
