For effectively waxing your legs??

I don't know. I've never waxed my legs. Seems a very tedious and painful way to go. I'll be interested to see what others have to say.

Have you ever done it? Just contemplating? Or just bored?

I've never tried it before.

I think the best way to wax your legs is to use wax.

But that's just my opinion.

Stop org stalking me.


I'm going to wax your legs when you visit then you can let everyone know how that went.

You don't have the funds for all the wax that you'll need for my legs.

I've tried sugaring which didn't work out so well. All it did was make my hoo-ha all hot and sticky.

The Nair strips also sucked major ass. The only thing that has been effective for me is when I had my legs professionally waxed at a salon. I'm not sure what type of wax they used.

*sits n listens* .. cause ive never done that before either.. ive only had my eyebrows waxed

I forget the name of the wax I used at home, it's been so long... but any real wax would probably work

I used to use Immac, but wasn't aways great results, sometimes too warm sometimes too cold.

Gave in and got an epilator in the end, no mess or fuss just silky legs

That light blue colored stuff works better than the sugarwax. I forget the name since, in the salon were I worked...it was so long ago, I forgot the name.

But more importantly... was the waxing strips, a thin linen cloth is always best, not those thicker cottony sheets that do not absorb the wax as quickly.

Linen strips will only work on certain parts of the body too.

I have waxed people from the toes to the eyebrows, the most challenging was waxing around male scrotum.... and he was happy that I didn't hurt him

I have waxed my own legs.... I do not recommend it since you can not reach and pull effectively without causing pain and you can only really reach the lower part of the leg. It just hurts more when you do it yourself.

Yeah, I can see why you'd have to use that on your legs.


You seem pretty hairy.

I'm warning you, my reflexes are very dangerous. If that thing hurts, you're going to suffer.

Objection.

going to a reputable salon is the best way to get your legs waxed.

I've tried to wax my legs at home on several occasions but it never worked out right. The frontt part of my shin would look all nice and smooth but the backs of my legs didn't work out so well.
