<p>This style leaves you completely smooth down there. From top to bottom, the goal of a Brazilian wax is to remove all hair from your most intimate regions. It’s ideal for anyone who prefers a nude and maintained look.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>A classic Brazilian means leaving a small strip of hair on the front. You can leave a small design in the shape of a heart, diamond or triangle if you like to add a personal twist to your grooming. It’s also very common to simply remove all hair.</p>
<br>
<br>
<h3>A BRIEF HISTORY OF BRAZILIAN WAXING:</h3>
<br>
<br>
<p>So when and where did this style of waxing start? As its eponymous name suggests, Brazilian waxing has alluring South American origins. However, the style was actually first legitimized on the Streets of New York by the J Sisters at their Manhattan waxing salon in the early 90’s. Made popular by celebrities and models, the all-or-nothing approach to pubic hair quickly took the waxing industry by storm.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Nowadays Brazilian waxing is the go-to style for a hair-free look. It’s a very popular choice for those who want consistently smooth skin without shaving daily.</p>
<br>

<h2>HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM BIKINI WAXING?</h2>

<p>A bikini wax removes hair only along your bikini or panty line. It tidies up any unruly hair that might peek out of your underwear or bikini bottom. It’s perfect if you want to look hair-free at the beach without removing all pubic hair.</p>

<br>
<h2>DOES WAXING DOWN THERE HURT?</h2>
<br>
<br>
<p>Waxing lifts hair from the root. It is completely normal to feel some discomfort. However, the feeling only lasts a few seconds and the results will last for weeks. The more you wax, the easier it gets as hair becomes finer.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>If you’re nervous, try waxing less sensitive areas such as your arms and legs first. When you’re comfortable with the process, aim for the bikini line.</p>
<br>
<br>
<h3>TIPS FOR MAKING BIKINI WAXING LESS PAINFUL:</h3>
<br>
<br>
<p>USE A HIGH-QUALITY WAX</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Use a wax that is effective and gentle on this super sensitive area.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>GROW YOUR HAIR</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Stop shaving and make sure your hair is long enough (2mm) to wax.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>BREATHE &amp; RELAX</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>It might sound counterintuitive but relaxing you body makes waxing easier.</p>
<br>
<br>
<h2>HOW LONG DO WAXING RESULTS LAST FOR?</h2>

<br>
<br>
<p>Results typically last between 2-8 weeks. Each body is different, so the exact time will vary. When you start to see regrowth depends on your hair and growth cycle. A regular waxing schedule will eventually mean longer-lasting result between each wax.</p>
