OK, how many weeks are we talking? And, does it hurt less the more you do it? Do you have to do it less often as time goes by?

Depends on how fast or slow your hair grows really, I think the standard is 3-6 weeks unless the waxer is bad & the hair doesn't pull from the root. I pretty much go once a month smile

& no, it never gets easier lol We're talking vagina lips, that shit hurts omfg But it's so brief & so worth it nod I haven't been doing it long enough to see a longer time period between waxes, I've only done it steadily for about 4 months now smile

Shoes/boots. Some of them hurt like hell but they look amazing so I'll never give them up. I don't wear anything lower than a 3 1/2" heel - except for kicking around shoes. Most of my shoes/boots are 4" high.

I bow to you, I still look dorky walking in my high ones lol worship

High heels have probably caused me the most pain but I don't wear them on the regular. Once I also made a strapless bra out of packing tape because I didn't have one that went with the outfit I was wearing at the time.

Back in April of '06 I had a breast reduction. I was told by my dr that I could not wear underwire bras for at least 6 months after the surgery because of my scarring. When the 4th of July came around, I wanted to look hot and all the other bras made me look flat chested. I bought a new underwire bustier cut bra to push my boobies up a little bit. At first, it was okay. I had little discomfort but after sitting outside for a while in 90 degree weather, I started to get really sweaty which made the underwire rub right into my scars. It was quite painful and I ended up pulling the bra off through my sleeve as I walked back to the car with hundreds of people around. That was painful and totally not even worth it as I went home dateless.

That wasn't of your own volition so I don't think that counts. no no no!

I don't think that most men (Prince excluded) do very uncomfortable things for fashion. In fact it seems like designers know that the only way a man will even consider looking good is if his outfit is comfortable.

Although I did know this one guy who used to wear those nylon socks that make your fet smell because he thought they looked good. I was like, "But they make your feet smell!" and he said, "Yeah, but they look real good with my shoes"

shrug


hmmm

1. Sportin' Waves (probably the stuff that made me go bald...)
2. Shaving. I hate it, can barely skip a day.

hmmm

Um, that's it. whistling


1. you used sportin' waves? falloff I don't know why but that strikes me as being very funny. bald is probably a better look. nod

2. maybe you should get a Brazillian Face Wax. CalhounSq says it lasts for weeks. nod

That had to have hurt terribly coming off! I'm cringing as I'm typing this...

I think I took it off in the shower so that the steam and whatnot loosened the tape. I can't quite remember...it was a long while ago. lol

Yeah, but I didn't use Sportin' Waves for waves (the family tree helped those come out fine). I used it for a look that was far, far worse:

So I'm on my way to a wedding. Looking forward to all of it.

But I got a new dress for it and it requires a strapless bra and I couldn't find my normal bustier I wear in such occasions and to make a long story short, I'm strapped into a corset so tight I can barely freaking BREATHE!! I don't know how women of the past wore these every single day, I'm actually worried about getting through the next 10 hours. lol

But the good news is, I look effing HOT! giggle My waist looks, well, not tiny, but the smallest it's every been. My boobs are practically shoved up to my neck. lol But all to fabulous effect.

What's the most uncomfortable thing you've done in the name of fashion?

smile


I've done this before! It totally gave me new meaning to the phrase "suck it up" lol

I've also subjected myself to the torture of stomping through the city streets in ridiculously high heels. By the end of the night, arriving home after a really crackin' party with the footsie tootsies just being in absolute AGONY!

There's really no easy way to say this. But, here goes:

The dames have us outnumbered and out-complained. There's no way we're going to be able to compete with their horrorific stories of sartorial sacrifice. Ehuffnsd gave us a glimmer of hope, when he talked about the heels he normally endures, but then he went 'fessed up about our higher center of gravity. Thanks, E... for nuthin'! mad

I've dug in my bag of poor hair-care choices... even dredged up the pink-and-white memory, but Jasmine "Sister UPS" Fire trumped those easily with her tale of packing-tape woe. disbelief

So, we've either gotta call in reinforcements -- that's right, childhood/family portrait outfits and Christmas & Father's Day cartoon ties -- or we just gotta suck it up and cede this battle to the women. I mean, at any moment, they're gonna start talkin' about stirrup pants and leg warmers. Not to mention scrunchies.

I'd wanted this to be a pep talk, but ... well... I've failed.)

You go girl! I hope you have pictures later.

Did you know that back in the day women used to faint left and right because of these corsets? That is where they get the name for FAINTING COUCHES. They used to have these couches in the women's lounges.
