Just a little bit messy
Reviewer:

It takes off hair like no other wax! the only thing is that the wax is messy and it tends to get everywhere.
don't try if your a first timer!!

I've never waxed anything before-this was not a good thing to try first! Made a huge mess-couldn't seem to get the right consitency and it hurt like heck!!! I would like to try it again but the bottles are small and i can probably only get 2 more waxes out of it. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. I didn't find the instuctions very helpful.
really painful!!!!

You have everything that you need to do this at home--by yourself! This kit makes waxing easy, relatively painless,with salon-quality results.

Lotions good, wax not good

The lotions that come with the kit are really nice - make skin feel smooth. The wax takes a long time to melt in the microwave. Results of removing hair? Not good. Picked up a few, broke many, and left behind a bunch.
GREAT STUFF

No more paying for pro waxing..this really works...I just need to try a couple more times to master the application and the pulling...has anyone over irritated after waxing?

I had troubles with the wax. The biggest think I hate is that I have reheat the wax many times before I am done waxing. i also have irritations on my skin, but it might be just me. I heard aother people enjoyed it a lot. I will try one more time to see how it works.
Great at home product

I have gotten my waxing done in a salon up until now. I couldn't afford the high price at the salon anymore and was looking for a good alternative. When I came upon this inexpensive at home wax kit I gave it a try. It works wonderful. I have gotten some at home products in the past that did not live up to my expectations, but this product made me a believer again. I got the same results with this product that I got from the salon. I think it helped that I had been to the salon before I tried this at home. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a good at home product. I would like to say thank you to Gigi for making this great affordable wax kit.
Unless you can handle the pain!

This was the first time I tried waxing my bikini area by myself. It was extremely painful. The product was okay. The wax seemed to harden fast. I wouldn't recommend this if you can't handle causing the pain to yourself...just get it done professionally.
This product isn't that great.

Firstly my bottles also came half full. I am not sure if this is how the company sends all the bottles out...I found this to be very disapointing. Secondly....this wax is messy and not the easiest to spread on. The wax is very painful and leaves hairs behind. I like to wax and get it all at once...this product failed at that. This product is now just sitting on my dresser...maybe I'll use it on my eyebrows. It is too difficlut to use on the bikini because it leaves too many hairs behind.
Save your money

Despite getting the kit with a couple of 1/2 empty bottles (because of spillage during shipment), I tried this product with very little success. Following the directions carefully, I applied the wax as directed to a fairly small area. After letting the wax harden and set as required, I swiftly pulled the wax off to successfully remove only about 4 hairs out of approx. 25! I tried it again, but came up with the same results. I would have tried to email the company with this problem, but they never tried to resolve the initial problem regarding the spillage during shipment that I emailed them about immediately after receiving the package. I guess their philosophy is "ignore them and maybe they'll go away"!!!
Not for beginners.

My first trip to bikini waxing, after only having been waxed one previous time at a salon, was both messy and painful. If you're an expert waxer, you could probably avoid most of the debacle I created, but I found myself with wax everywhere except where it should be, and the wax would come off only in little chunks instead of one strip like it was supposed to. That equals a whole lot of pain, yanking and getting one tiny piece of wax in your hand, only to yank again.. and repeat.
Ended up swollen and hurting. Again, largely due to my inexperience. But please.. unless you're great at this.. just have a pro do it!
great product

I have gone to a salon to get waxed for years and since I have moved I cannot find a good place to get waxed so I was thrilled to find this site and this wax. It is an easy system, just that you have to use a thin layer of the wax and it comes off really easily!! I highly recommend it!!
Works great for a do it yourself brazilian!

I've used it a couple of times to give myself a brazilian (by the way, I'm a male) and it works great! Doing it yourself is not as bad as you think, and if you are going to do it, this wax is the way to go.
With a couple more practices, it'll be as good as salon.

Freed from the embarrasment of the salon
from Brooklyn, NY Thu Jul 22 2004
I have gotten brazlilian waxed by a professional for the last three or four years in NYC. A friend living away from any kind of salon told me she'd started waxing herself. I wanted to try and I'm glad I did. I thought it'd be really hard to get at those hard-to-reach areas but with a little creativity I was fine. It also seemed less painful with this stip-free wax than when my regular waxer did it using the fabric strips.
Yay! I might not ever get in that awkward spread legs over head position for my regular waxing woman ever again. And I don't have to wait for an appointment.
Gave 4 stars instead of 5 b/c container is a bit on the small side. I'd like a bigger vat of the wax so I don't have to buy every couple of months.
It worked for me!

This is by far the best waxing system I have used! It actually worked! The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is that I wish they sold it in larger containers!! I would buy it in bulk!
Best Product out there

This is the best waxing product out there. It is very easy to use and takes off every folicle every time. Much better than the sugar based products. No fussing with strips!
Love it!!!

I love this stuff. I wax myself and I ONLY use Gigi Brazilian Bikini Wax. I dont just use it on the bikini area. I use it everywhere! Bikini, eyebrows and legs. I love that, I dont need clothe strips. My hubby likes it too. I wax his "unibrow" and he says it hurts less than other brands I have tried. I agree. Happy waxing!
