| GiGi Bikini Waxing |
Have you ever wondered what your girlfriend was talking about when she came home from a new salon... you nod as if you knew what she was saying, but to embaressed to ask what in the world she was talikng about. Well here is a brief summary of all those exotic waxing techniques you are too curious about. Technically speaking there are four types of bikini waxes. (1) The Bikini Wax - Hair is removed from outside the panty line. (2) The Brazilian Bikini Wax - Leaves a vertical stripe in front, two to three fingers in width. Hair is not removed from the labia. Hair is removed from the tush. Hair may be removed from the butt crack if woman wishes. (3) The Playboy Bikini Wax - All hair is removed from the labia, all hair is removed from the butt, including the butt crack and only a very narrow strip is left in the front. Named after Playboy magazine because thats what you see on the models in Playboy. (5) The Full Bikini Wax - All hair is removed. Everywhere. Everything. Bald. The Brazilian Bikini Wax method is currently very popular and is offered in many salons and skincare clinics. If you are considering waxing as a do-it-yourself project, a consultation with a professional is advised beforehand. We strongly recommend doing as much research as possible to determine if this method should be attempted at home. We are not suggesting that a "Playboy Bikini Wax" job can be done on ones own body nor are we recommending that one even attempt this procedure.
