Hey Ladies...

Anyone willing to share info or experience? I would truly appreciate it, since im full of worry & concern.

It hurts as much as anywhere else. A lot Smile

. Numbing cream helps. It should include the entire bikini area including the very upper thighs. Good luck! If you're someone who likes having no hair (like me), it's really, really nice to have the area smooth and clean all the time.

Oh, and I had no after pain but I only speak for myself. If you can, find a place that uses a laser machine that sprays cold water as it lasers--that really helps. If you post your location people may give recommendations.

The inner parts are VERY painful, every where else was ok. They also do the sides as part of the Brazillian. For me it was amazing because I used to get ingrown hairs and pimples after I shaved. Now I BH no longer have that issue.
After 2 sessions of complete removal I left a small patch of hair - they call it a landing strip.

Op here

Thanks for sharing your experience. Makes me feel more comfortable.
Im from Brooklyn, anyone knows a good place?

To Amother who decided to leave a landing strip: would you share why you did that? Style or comfort or any other reason?

Went for a consult and I had wanted to leave a little bit. Maybe for look, maybe cause they say the hair helps to keep area safer from infections. I don’t know. But then I asked what happens to the length of the hair left and she said I’d have to keep trimming. I don’t want to do laser to still have to keep trimming Sad

Time and also when it grows it itches. And DH when I had asked had preferred not complete Brazilian. (She yelled at me what do you care, it’s your body and that’s true but I think him having a say is reasonable).

1) did anyone who took it all off regret that decision later
2) anyone who kept a small part not trim it and it works out okay?

I took it all off and I love it! Feels amazing, way more comfortable and somehow less sweaty in the summer. If you ever waxed it’s way less painful to laser. The inner parts hurt a bit but nothing like waxing and each session is pretty quick. The place you use should show you a diagram of exactly which areas are covered under their Brazilian package. It took me 8-9 sessions to be totally hairless long term but I think it varies. I took a risk and used a non Jewish place in Manhattan I found on Groupon and they were amazing! Super clean, really nice office, cooling laser machines, great service. If you’re willing to travel to Manhattan you should try them it’s called Bared Monkey (I know really gross name but they’re good:) .

I use a plastic surgeon who has the latest generation of lasers and after 5 sessions hair is almost completely gone and it’s been totally painless. Totally. Like no pain at all.

I waited until the technology improved Smile

So one of you are okay that it’s all off. Anyone else happy or anyone regret? And can you leave a little without trimming.

I don’t live in the Tristate area.

It’s a bit over $300 a session for full Brazilian

I think the laser is called the Motus AX Laser

Is it extremely awkward?
I would’ve done it years ago I’m just embarrassed and awkward….
I shave currently for that reason Sad

I also do it in manhatten and it's been amazing so far bah. Did a few sessions in Midwood and their machine wasn't so updated so wasn't great. Hurts only like a minute or two and is around 200 a session for Brazilian underarms and lower legs.

It's not. It's like going to a doctor. I've been to a few places and they have all been professional and made me feel comfortable.

Poster above is right. I walked in asked for sheet to cover got undressed and said I feel like I’m at the gynecologist. Is it a great feeling nope but totally manageable. And besides. They’ve seen it all.
