So summer is just around the corner...and you are considering a Brazilian bikini wax. If you plan to bounce and flounce around on the beaches in that teeny,weeny,little bikini, with your bikini-waxed bod, then first you should consider what a Brazilian bikini wax is.

For example, you must convince yourself that you actually want to get a Brazilian bikini wax.

Look at first trying the standard bikini wax which will get rid of the hair from your bikini line which will take off most of your pubic hair aside from the most delicate areas.

Note first that a Brazilian bikini wax depiliates ALL your pubic hair.

You should first try to get your first Brazilian bikini wax by a qualified waxer. If you try to give yourself a Brazilian bikini wax, you may cause damage to your skin in the bikini area.

So find a pro or an experienced friend to help.

You can find a salon that provides a Brazilian wax in any large US city. Try the "Yellow pages" or in a search engine for "Brazilian wax" + "name of your city".

After finding a salon, see what their customers say if you can. Make sure that the experts who are going to do your wax for the Brazilian bikini wax are knowledgeable.

Ask questions like 'how many waxes do you do here per week?'

A Brazilian bikini wax can cost up to one-hundred dollars (U.S.) . However, the normal price is about fifty dollars.

Don't try and bargain lower than that or you will be open to get a bad job done quickly just for the money.

At your scheduled appointment (before which you should take a warm shower thoroughly cleansing your pubic area)

You will be sent into a separate room or cubicle where you will lie on a table or bed with your knees up.

Following this, the cosmetologist will trim your pubic hair carefully with scissors to a length of around a quarter inch.

At this point the waxer will begin the waxing process.

She will use a cooler temperature wax which causes less pain.

When the wax cools it will be removed along with your hair. Pain of some degree should be expected here.

First time is always most painful. Second or third bikini waxing sessions will be less painful.

Be prepared for the waxer to ask you to get into some strange and uncomfortable positions - such as holding your legs up in the air, or over to the side or even over your head!

If the waxer is proficient at their job, the painful part will be over quickly. Should you feel it is taking too long or that the pain is too much, tell the therapist that you need a break.

After the Brazilian bikini waxing is done a soothing lotion will be layered over the pubic area.

Your bikini line will stay smooth for at around three weeks and should require no maintenance.

Take advantage of it!
