Remember when Brazilians became a thing? And I’m not talking about the nuts, or the spunky football players. I’m talking about the practice of all but erasing the hair from your lady area, leaving only a landing strip up front. I remember when they became a thing it felt like every woman in the world was getting them, except for me. Why not me? Ummm, WAX DOWN THERE!??!? Uh uh. Bless those who were, and those who are brave enough, but I’m a cowardly little lion and the thought of hot wax near there *shivers*. I was however brave enough, even after the armpit episode, to try depilatory creaming my most treasured of areas. The reason being, I had a gentleman coming to stay, a long distance beau, and I thought he might enjoy being greeted by The Garden of Eden, rather than something akin to the Amazon jungle.
Not being one for thinking ahead, I did it the day of the impending visit. Once again, like the Armpit Affair, I smoothed the cream on, being very careful to avoid a certain sensitive spot. I sat back with a trashy mag, waited, scraped the cream off in the shower, followed up with a little landscaping with some scissors, and voila. I was ready.
But then I wasn’t.
Because I had forgotten that depilatory creams stink. Badly. And no amount of showering was going to rid myself of that stench anytime soon. Oooooh the romance. Yeah, nah.
What I love about the Remington iLight Pro, amongst it’s ease of use, sleek design, and the results I’m seeing, is that it doesn’t leave you smelly. It’s not a passion killer. Don’t get me wrong, every now and then it’ll singe a hair and a burnt smell will arise, but it doesn’t linger, it doesn’t get in the way of intimacy.
You zip. You zap. You’re good to go.
So here we are, it’s week five. The week of Level 5. Level 4 zip zaps had a few ‘owwie’ moments, what would Level 5 bring? Actually, not a lot more than Level 4. I zip zapped happily along, only having some close-your-eyes-and-take-it moments when I got to that darn sensitive fleshy calf. Level 5 on the Remington iLight Pro was also a little rougher on my armpits, and my undercarriage, BUT, someone, somewhere, at some point, said ‘beauty is pain’, and if a very little amount of pain, like 5% of the entire experience, is going to mean I don’t have to go through the hassle of shaving for a really long time, I’ll take it.
So how are things looking? Good!
Through very unscientific testing, (also known as what I see when I look at my legs/pits and bits), I reckon about two thirds of my leg hair has now disappeared, maybe half of my armpit hair, and that again in the areas of my Garden of Eden that have been introduced to the Remington iLight Pro. The thicker, blacker hairs on all parts treated are yet to budge, but who knows what will happen now that they’ve had the ultimate of zip zaps?!
Next week is my final blog, the week when I’m hoping to be hair free and feeling sexy, (sorry, TMI?). Hopefully my latest beau, aka The Husband, will be pleased…
Undercarriage lol. Your writing style always makes me laugh :)
