Bless Your Heart

J So, only 4 more days til we leave for Wilmington for the weekend.  I so need a getaway. It will be interesting to see how the pugs do while we travel.  We’re taking them on 2 mini holidays to break them in before we do our big vacation for 10 days in October.  I have so much to do before we go, and this is my long week at work (Mon-Wed 8-7 and Thurs 9-4). 

 

Thursday after work I’m getting my legs waxed again.  A couple of people have asked about it.  So here’s the low down:

• It hurts.  Sometimes shockingly painful.  But then it’s over.  In a second.  My tattoo hurt way worse, and that kind of pain still doesn’t qualify as real pain.  It’s just more shock than pain.  Does that make sense?
• It takes a really long time.  I was surprised.  For a full leg and a bikini wax it took 3.5 hours.  It was my first time though, and she said the next time probably won’t take as long.
• It’s not cheap.  Some salons charge upwards of $70 per leg.  Luckily my little town is situated between a large city and a medium sized town, so I go to the smaller town for less expensive options.  I was able to get both legs and the bikini wax for $75.  She said it will cost less the more I go because there will be less hair and it will take less time.
• It really does grow back more sparsely and softer.  I was amazed.  I usually have to shave every other day in the summer.  By week 3 you still couldn’t see hairs unless you looked really close.
• Choose someone you like because you’re gonna get really close to them rather quickly!
