I wouldn't see why the therapist would mind it is up to you when you have your waxing done, generally your bikini will last longer than your legs anyway.I would wear an old thong with good elastic because you may have to manouvre it to aid the therapist.Although a lot of places give you disposables now.
I specialise in brazillian waxing and would certanily not judge you when you walked through the door.
If the therapist is professional she will only be intreasted in the area that is being waxed, a true brazillian needs concentration to be perfect.
I provide clients with underwear im not sure what other salons do. Seriously dont worry about what the therapist thinks if they have this attitude they should not be in this industry.
Thanks

I wouldn't worry about the hairly legs... that's not what your tecnician is looking at. As for a thong, I guess it depends on your technician. I have my clients strip completely bare from the waste down. Underwear or disposable thongs only get in the way.

I'm glad someone else said they have the clients wear nothing. Is this a canadian thing? Probably not, but I was originally taught to have the client in disposibles and I hated it. I'm on my own now and I never have them wear anything. And if their legas are hairy its just an upsell to getting a leg wax!

Good luck, I'm sure you'll be fine & the therapist won't even think twice, honest!!! 
I find it easier if the clients wear nothing for Brazilians etc.... think its client preferance though as some can be a little shy!

i usually have my clients wear a thong for brazilian/hollywood, but like huberella said, it depends on your therapist. However, if you feel more comfortable with them on let them know, brazilian waxes are bad enough without getting stressed about somebody looking at your bits!!

i dont think your therapist will be bothered one bit! if it make u feel better just make a joke and say you will have to mind the fluffy legs im not getting them done till fri! she will understand you need to grow them...i have had people say this to me in the past i just show them mine lol that usually puts them at ease as mine are always inbetween waxing! eek
hi got my brazilian done today not to bad but i still have quite a few hairs left some around my bum and in between my legs plus the landing strip which was left is abit to wide and not straight so when i get it done next time should i mention this as i did want to be mostly hairless apart from a small landing strip but apart from that the pain wasnt bad at all i had two therapists that done

Absolutely mention it - you're paying to have the look you want, and if you're not 100% happy then your therapist needs to know so they can do something about it.
Out of curiosity, how come you had two therapists there, was one training?

I`d have to tell them when I went back or go somewhere else.And as Andy says-How come 2 therapists?
im sorry but that just sounds like shoddy work!!
not the worst ive heard of, but still...
I make sure ive got every last hair.
I leave my client to check thoroughly once im finished and i wait just outside the room. if theres a problem, even one hair out of place, i tell them to call me back in!!!
=]
i had two therapists because she said it would be quicker and easier for me as it was my first time they were both fully qualified i was just abit embarased to say anything about the other hairs she left but i will ask about them when i go bk the pain was ok didnt hurt that much but i think that was because i had one stretching my skin why the other one waxed i didnt take any pain relief but got my legs on friday ill see how that goes
I always say have a good feel and a good look and let me know if you want anymore off or if ive missed anything.I also don't know why there would be two of them.I wouldn't like it its very personal a lot nicer with just one.

You should definetly say something about the left over hair. There should not be hair left in the areas you mentioned.. .unless they are very short hairs that they could not get out. I get my client to check the job before I even leave the room, and make sure they know once I have left the room that if I left anything then to please let me know.
I would think that having an extra person in the room helping would just get in the way. Just curious... how long did it take them to do your brazilian wax?
