Wax/sugaring vs Shaving
Return to DiscussionsI'm sort of taking an informal poll to see how many use waxing or sugaring instead of shaving. If so, do you have a professional do it or do it yourself? We use Alexandria sugar instead of shaving. Last so much longer and it grows back thinner over time.
I get regular wax treatments from a professional. I still shave my wife on a regular basis and have tried to convince her to come along with me and get waxed but she's had her legs waxed before and did not care for the pain. She's certain that that pain will be significantly higher on her pubic, vagina and rectal areas.
For me, the waxing is the only way to go. I'd do laser treatments but have heard pros and cons and I think I'll stick with waxing for now. The aesthetician I visit is a semi retired RN. She tired of the grind at the hospital, didn't care for working at doctor's offices so she started her own business after visiting an aesthetician for a few years and felt she could do the job. She's the ONLY professional aesthetician I could find that would perform the same services for men that they do for women.
For now, I have my back, upper arms, shoulders waxed. I have a Brazilian wax done every 4-6 weeks and on my next visit, I will include my butt and upper thighs. I've not tried sugaring and not sure how that works.

I do my own waxing either by using cut veet strips and baby powder or by cold wax / diy sugaring.
