Body Waxing: 11 Behind the Scenes Salon Secrets
From clients who don't freshen up to staph infections, pro waxers share their (often gross) stories.

What waxers are really thinking when they're looking at your you-know-what:
Let's set the record straight: None of the waxers we talked to say they ever judge/compare/critique the bodies of their clients. This is what they do everyday, so it quickly stops being weird for them. Most waxers are just looking at your below-the-waist area in terms of where to remove hair from next.
Shays says some women are reluctant to get undressed their first time getting a bikini wax and will try to keep their underwear on, but it really isn't necessary. Barshop says when waxers come out of their rooms, they may comment that their clients were so nice/friendly/whatever, but they never talk about what their bodies look like.

There are some things seriously wrong with this article. Its is not sanitary AT ALL to double dip. if the wax is hot enough to kill ALL bacteria.. it would have to be at abou 300 + degrees, which would obviously burn someone. Secondly, I would never do a Brazilian on someone who had their period, even with a clean tampon. It's usually not recommended to do a bikini wax either, but that's easier to work around. And last, just because a wax hurts, does not mean the person doesn't know what they're doing. You're getting hair ripped out of your body, ITS GOING TO HURT. Really terrible and misleading article.

Nice, but I'm still hesitant about waxing because it's painful.
