Hi everyone,
I used to regularly wax myself (Brazilian, legs, armpits) every 4 weeks, but I noticed I could never get in to a good hair growth pattern, particularly with the Brazillian. I would notice sufficient hair growth at the correct length to wax, yet there were patches that would be completely bare at the same point (week 4). Regrowth began relatively quickly after waxing too so I ended up spending more time with hair than without.
I may also have been incorrectly (?) waiting for those bare areas to grow in to wax it all together, taking me over the 4 week mark so that may be my issue.
All of this made me give up waxing for over a year.
So my questions are:
1. Should I have waited for the bare areas to grow in before waxing or not?
2. As my hair grows very quickly, how long should I leave inbetween waxing? Should I adopt a 3 week waxing schedule instead?
3. How long after my last shave should I leave it before my first wax as 1/4 inch is reached within a week when shaving.
I really want to start out right this time to get the full benefits of waxing.
Thank you so much to everyone for reading this, I feel like I'm at my wit's end with it all.
Katie
