GiGi Brazilian Bikini Wax Microwave Kit
-
KellyFirst Time Waxing Myself; Great Results!!Recently, I have developed an expensive habit of getting a brazilian bikini wax every 3-4 weeks. At $40 per wax, this was getting very expensive. I saw lots of good reviews on this site so decided to try the Gigi kit at home. It worked amazingly! My very first time using it went very smoothly (no put intended). As other people have said, I initially had to heat the wax longer, for about 1.5 minutes, and had to reheat the wax twice before I finished.I am extremely pleased with the results. They are better than the results from the professionals from Brazil! When they waxed me, they had to pluck many leftover hairs and I had to do more plucking when I got home. With the Gigi kit, I missed very few hairs and had to do very minimal plucking. And, I had enough wax leftover to do at least two, probably three, more waxings. Discovering this kit is sure to save me hundreds of dollars over my lifetime!I recommend this kit to anyone, but I would recommend going to a professional first for a few reasons:1. You can get used to the pain that comes with waxing and decide if the results are worth it (they are!).2. You can observe what the waxer does and mimic this when you use the kit at home.3. Every time you wax, the hair grows back finer and finer. So, if you get a professional wax, then wait for the hair to grow back and then try it on your own, you will be working with thinner, less coarse hair and it will be easier to do a thorough job. I hope this helps everyone!posted Aug 22, 2007Link to this post

Massage Lady In Central FloridaFloridaDon't Spend Your MoneyThis is by far the worst wax product on the market. It is incredibly messy and does not harden properly. And once you manage to remove the wax, it leaves a sticky film that is quite uncomfortable. Do some research and experiment with other waxes in the market, just stay far away from gigis.posted Aug 2, 2007Link to this post

BrandiLincoln NEDont Buy This ProductThis product is aweful. I do waxing daily, and thought Id try this out on my self before I used in on someone else. After burning the heck out myself and getting it all over the place, I thought maybe Im an idiot and dont know how to use it. So I waited for it to cool down and then it was a big gummy mess. I WILL NEVER USE THIS PRODUCT AGAIN!!! But as for this web site. I will use it more often to find out info. to help me out..posted Jul 29, 2007Link to this post

AmandaMANot As Good As ExpectedI had really bad luck with this. It was hard to heat to the right temperature and it was extremely messy. It did remove hairs but not nearly enough to make it worth it. It takes a long time, the wax hardens and breaks if it sits for too long and when it is at a usable temperature, its like stringy gum that gets everywhere. However, on the plus side, even though I didnt like this particular product, this site does deliver its products quickly and I would recommend ordering from this site.posted Jul 4, 2007Link to this post

TriciaAre These Creators Serious?possibly the wost beauty product I have ever purchased. First, I couldnt get the wax to heat to the correct temperature. It was either bubbling hot, too hot to put on skin, or too cold and unspreadable. When I finally WAS able to put it on. It turned basically into dried up gum. Instructions said to flick up the edge and quickly strip off. To say the least, that was impossible. It kept coming off in pieces. And when I was able to get it off in one strip, it removed 3 hairs at most. I would not even recommend this product to my worst enemy.posted Jun 26, 2007Link to this post

GilbertTitusville, FLAre These Reviews True?Before I bought this product I looked at the reviews to make sure it was a great product. Well I was wrong on my judgement. It was very painful because you have to try and get the piece of wax up in order to pull on the hard wax.(I think every one agrees that is more painfull to pull 1 or 2 hairs slowly than just a lot in one quik stroke) The hard wax breaks into pieces when you are pulling on it. In other words you wont be able to pull a whole strip off with out the wax breaking. The hard wax breaks as you are pulling and pieces go every where. Because the wax breaks so easily it leaves a lot of untouched hair. So after all the work their was so much hair left that I had to shave. The wax off lotion didnt work very well, I had to keep on rubbing to try and get the wax off. My area is very irritated.I tried diferent ways: 1. applying a thin layer just didnt work at all way too messy2: a thick layer worked the best but still left so much hair behind that if I tried to pluck it. I would be an all day project, so I had to shave and it was still messy. 3: I also ried the wax hotter or colder to see which one will pick up the hair better, neither workedThat is my opinion I think that these reviews are not real and honest... Hope this helps every one. If you are going to buy wax buy it with muslin strips, its way less messier. At least the wax stays on the strip and does not break into piecesposted Jun 23, 2007Link to this post

JoGreat ProductI waxed for the first time this morning. It was not nearly as painful as I thought it would be. I heated up the wax in the microwave and then used a candle warmer to keep the wax warm. It worked great. I will definately purchase this product again.posted Apr 25, 2007Link to this post

TgrantNHGood To Have If You Are In A Jam.I found this product to be ok.I will use it again as a last resort, but I much prefer the kits with the meslin strips. I found the wax hard to grab onto.posted Apr 20, 2007Link to this post

MeganDallas, TXBikini Waxing Not For At HomeI truly believe you should have it professionally done. I found it impossible to do by myself. however, the product itself was good... you can use it for other easy to reach areas.posted Apr 20, 2007Link to this post
