I am very sad cause I tried the honey recipe. : i read it again, and i just sounded like those commercial people. since im so cheap lol)īut yeah i say go for it, because i could be telling you oh no its not that bad, but for you it might be more painful, you know? You should try it out and see for yourself, and now that there's a recipe for it, you wont have to waste money on razors ever again (im so happy about that part. I wont lie to you, it DOES hurt, but i mean if it was THAT bad, people wouldn't be doing it, or creating little recipes to make your own wax, you know?Īnd i have to tell you, when a friend suggested it to me, i was really against it, i was like " how can you do that to yourself! honestly! all that pain! no no no, i'll just continue with the shaving", then i read stories of people waxing and they all said how terrible it felt when waxing so i had a bad image in my head.īut then when i did it, i guess that i thought i was going ot die of the pain or something, that when i ripped off the strip, it didnt hurt that bad, it just stung a bit (i'm talking about my legs), the faster you pull it the less it hurts.
