Works Well, But Needs WarmerI used this product for the very first time. I have had the whole brazilian waxing done a few times in a salon before, but decided to try it myself.The kit has everything you need, however I would reccommend buying the waxing strip cloths, it is easier to pull the cloth rather than the hard wax. If using strips, when you apply the wax, immediately apply the cloth strip to the wax. It is much easier to pull this way, and it removes all of the wax.I would also recommend getting a wax warmer if you are planning on continuing to do it yourself. It takes about an hour or so to heat up the wax, rather than about 30 seconds to about a minute if you are using the microwave. However, when using the microwave, you have to pause to reheat the wax, which was a pain.It is very time consuming, I would say about an hour, more or less.This is very painful! It is a very sensitive area, so if you cant put pain upon yourself, I would not reccommend it. Otherwise good product!posted Jun 19, 2009Link to this post -

Amazing!!This product is amazing. It was my first time doing it, I have never done it in a salon or by myself before. I tried shaving it off years ago and its such a nightmare. Got the Gigi wax based today and its not as messy and difficult to apply as I thought its gonna be. The best thing is the wax only stick on the hair but not on my skin, so I didnt really have to use the wax off lotion. Its painful because it is such a sensitive area, but its all worth it. I am now nice and smooth and all ready for the special occasion.posted Jun 9, 2009Link to this post -

Excellent Product!Love this. Heats up in a few minutes in the microwave and easily removes stubborn bikini line hair. Its as good as going to the salon, end result brilliant! One thing is that it can be messy but not a big problem if you just throw old rags on the floor first. Will definitely buy again!posted May 28, 2009Link to this post

AmazingIt works really well, and i found out that my armpits sweat less after I wax. Hair grows finer and each time its easier to wax. Cant live without this kit.posted Apr 27, 2009Link to this post

Wow!!!!!So I was really nervous about waxing, as Id never done it before. But as soon as I got going it was so easy. And not nearly as painful as I anticipated. Yes, certain areas were a bit more sensitive than others. It only hurt for a second. Then I was good! As long as you follow the directions youll be fine. Put light dusting BABY POWDER before the wax, though. It helps to prevent alot of left over wax. Not as messy this way!! AND PULL QUICKLY! Going slow is torturous! Ugh!And yes! It may be a bit painful or uncomfortable. But you ARE pulling the hairs out at the root! Just do it quickly and follow the directions! Youll be fine! As for me, Ill NEVER go back to shaving again! This waxing system is a MUST HAVE!!posted Apr 3, 2009Link to this post

New To WaxingOk I read all these reviews on this very site before I bought the product and I still went for it because I was interested. I dont go to salons to get waxed. I have never even been waxed as I typically use a razor. I followed the directions and this stuff totally works. I also took the reviews into consideration and did not heat the wax too hot. Now although this stuff works like hell... it hurts like hell too lol. I kept the skin all tight and stuff, but with every pull I winced and the hair came off. All of the reviews on this product not working are people heating the wax too much or applying too thin of a layer. I found that the thicker layers of wax were easier to grasp and if the wax is not too hot then it dries really quickly after it is applied. Although I only got about 4 stips into it before I gave up...thats because I am a big sissy and it hurts lol. If it wasnt working then I would not have been in pain. It was actually a nice clean and even pull of the hair also. I think this is a great product for you girls who can be patient with directions so you get it right and for those of you that can tough it out. And trust me... I like razors even more now... I am off to finish the job that way instead hahahaposted Mar 11, 2009Link to this post

Painful And Ineffective!Awful. Half the time it didnt pull any hair out. The times it did stick to hair, it was so painful to pull, it was like tweezing a bunch of hairs at once. I always get Brazilians and can sleep through them...this one made me see why so many other women wouldnt get them done. I threw out the practically full jar after a half-hour of attempts.posted Feb 27, 2009Link to this post -

A ReviewYou know that when a person takes time to write a review is for 2 reasons: the product was great and they loved it, or they just simply didnt like the product. I really loved this product. Yeah, it was a little messy, but if you put the wax on the applicator and rotate the applicator so that the wax is even and not dripping its really easy to apply. Also, if youre a first timer like i was, try using muslin strips cause they work like a charm. ****What I would suggest is for you to take a couple of minutes to practice anywhere on your body that is almost hair free to get the hang of it and get the right timing, before you decide to move on to the "tough parts".*** This product was very gentle with the skin, and i found it a lot less painful then going to the spa.posted Feb 8, 2009Link to this post

HorrifyingI used this wax on a client and it was horrible to get off. Left my client in pain and me feeling humilliated that I used an inferior product on a client. This stuff is like taffy and trying to get it off the skin is a nightmare. Will be asking for my money back and sticking to the wax I know. HORRIBLE STUFF!!!!!!!!posted Nov 25, 2008Link to this post
