I've been thinking of getting a Brazillian wax for the longest time, and I mean THE LONGEST time. But up till now, I have yet to get my ass down to doing it. Two months ago I received a voucher for a free wax and was thrilled, thinking that this would motivate me to finally getting down to business with this whole Brazillian wax thing. But no...I waited and lingered, till it was way past the voucher's expiry date, when I simply shrugged my shoulders and dismiss the whole idea ALL OVER AGAIN. I am such a wuss.
You see, I am a vainpot when it comes to personal grooming and such. I train hard and continuously strive to achieve my ideal physique; brave the hazardous UV rays in order to attain that "glowing tan"; and spend more than enough time prior to stepping out of the house each day to make sure I look more than just decent. And these are just the publicly noticeable areas.
While most people tend to do the whole "sweep all the garbage under the bed" thing, meaning to say they only focus on the noticeable spots, I tend to be slightly more anal-retentive about it all and try to make sure that even the unseen bits remain nicely groomed and maintained. They are like expensive lawns you know. And shaving is a cheap shortcut that doesn't do it justice.
I've heard good things about the wax in terms of the post-waxing aesthetic quality. But I'm also aware that it hurts like f***, and man, even though I have a high pain threshold, I'm hesitant to put myself under the knife like that. Yes I know, no pain no gain. But oh man oh man, do I really want to pay someone to hurt me...? I'm no sadomasochist!
Now it's less than 2 months away from my dance competition and in the course of preparing myself for the comp, both in terms of my dance and physical training, I need to start thinking of getting my body well and ready for the nice little costumes that will give me 25% of my marks for the competition. Perfect body, perfect tan, and of course, nice smooth skin all over. Brazil is beckoning...
