RB- I don't think it's lame as long as you aren't super matchy matchy. Just don't clash and choose something in the same family!
@RB: I think matching would be cute as long as it's not exactly the same for both of you.
I'm back! I have my wax pot on and am doing some beauty maintenance! I've let it go too long and it hurts:( Ouch!
I'm back... I was making bacon & eggs :)
Thanks for the back-up ladies! I'm thinking we're going to go with purple b/c I saw this gorgeous purple dress that I want! It's a deep purple & I'm thinking I'd get him in a lighter shade or something. He looks awesome in color.
I'm so bad at keeping up with the whole beauty thing. I pluck my eybrows, but I hardly ever do it so I look pretty bad (not unibrow bad but not good!). I don't want to go the spa to get it done. Any tips on shaping & keeping your eyebrows nice & pretty?
@RB: I think that would look nice. Especially since you both aren't wear the same shade of eggplant or something!
@pmerr: I get my *edit* EYEBROWS shaped about every 2 months.... and in the interm I just tweeze every other day lol. I just get it a little bit at a time :)
... RB, you get your LASHES shaped? Or your eyebrows?
@pmerr: I haven't had my brows shaped in a while. I just maintain it with plucking them. I think it is good to have someone shape them the first time though because then you have a good foundation and you can just pluck the strays that pop up around the edges.
I actually have a professional wax pot from the spa I used to work at. You can buy them at Sally's beauty supply or get the Bliss Waxing Poetic kit at Sephora. Once you get used to it, it's pretty easy. I have to was my chin/lip and eyebrows, so it's too much to have it prof. done all the time. I saw that Allure, the co. that makes false eyelashes has stencils for your eyebrows which might help. Don't ever wax when you are having your period. That's my #1 tip. Super Ouch!
Alright girls, I'm out! Off to the workplace of doom for the rest of the night. Have a good one and keep the fires going! XOXO
@azbride, Do you use it for waxing only or for parafin wax too?
@ Recessionista- Thanks! She doesnt show up very well this small, but I like her. :)
@whitesonnet: Yum, what did you eat for lunch? I'm starting to get a little hungry myself.
I'd be nervous to wax my own eyebrows, but I've never done it. Yeah, I'd like to get them done & then just go off of that. I'm kinda scared! lol! I'm not a fan of pain! Would a spa be good or should I go to my hair salon (not a spa place)
yeah--RB you kinda confused me! lol..I was hoping it was brows!
@whitesonnet- I use it only for waxing. I've had parrafin tx on my feet and hands and it's nice, but it makes your polish come off faster. I usually save that for the rare spa days I get.
Dang it I just got here lol!!! I get my eyebrows arched, I haven't gotten them waxed in a while...
@pmerr: I had mine done at Ulta and they were really nice. I think it depends on the person though. And honestly, waxing the eyebrows hurts the least of all the waxing I have had done.
AsB- I agree! I would not do any waxing on any other parts. Just the face! Holy House of Pain, Batman!
ahh. I'd like to go! I'll probably look at the prices around here. There's an Ulta here-2 actually, but they're far away...well, about 45 minutes away! lol
Speaking of waxing...I have never had ANYTHING waxed before but plan to do so before the wedding so I don't have to worry about shaving on the honeymoon -- any tips or things to know? I still have a long time, but I am sure I will do a trial before the big day to see how it goes. Anything I need to know going in?
I want to wax & such before too! I'd probably just make sure you go in & see how you react-how long it takes irritation or reactions to go away.
@Gemstone: Make sure that you take a painkiller beforehand. The one thing that I hate about waxing is that you have to let the hair grow out a bit before you can go. I can't wax my underarms because I can't stand to have hair that long! For the legs and bikini area letting it grow out isn't so bad.
For me the irritation usually only lasts a couple of hours but other people might have a stronger reaction to it.
I would start doing your waxing way before the wedding. Every person is different, but I can't use the stuff they put on your skin afterwards. It makes me breakout. I just use an ice cube. I've started laser hair removal tx on other "parts"
pmerr and MissAsB...thank you! I definitely want to know how I will react.
How long do you have to let the hair grow prior to waxing? I wonder if that will be hard to do with having a summer wedding? (As in, I will be wanting to wear shorts/dresses, etc)
I so wanna get a bikini wax for close to the wedding, but THAT I'm scared of! lol
@AZ: I want laser hair removal so much but I don't have the money! It would be great to not have to wax or shave anymore.
