Do you find that the removal of all hair enhances sex? Too many men have told me that it feels softer but strange. Kind of like are sleeping with a child. Not a good image.

each to her/his own. being a male i feel the need to trim down there as well. like a haircut but more personal and the ladies like it neat as well.

What's brazilian and playboy? Related to a-hole or just the pubes?

a brazilian leaves a small landing strip in the center, a playboy removes all hair.

So, it's pubes then.

Thought I saw an episode of Sex and City, where they had to lift their legs for brazilian... thought it was a-hole related.

Actually Magnolia, it's the opposite way round Wink
A Brazilian takes all off, while Playboy gives you a strip Laughing

I think lots of people out there are not very sure of waxing terminology, so here's the info:

What is a Brazilian wax?
A Brazilian wax is the full removal of hair in the bikini area as well as the buttocks area.

What is the Playboy wax?
The Playboy wax is very similar to the Brazilian wax, except we leave a small landing strip in the front area.

What is the Bikini wax?
The Bikini wax is the removal of the hair in bikini area and your inner thigh.

well i wasn't sure so i googled it, and apparently a brazilian takes everything off on and under (if you know what i mean) and leaves a small strip on the top and a Playboy just takes everything off. but as we are in china it's probably best to find out how Dragonfly (or wherever you will go to get waxed) defines it

I am pretty sure about the difference between a Brazilian and a Playboy but as bella suggested, it is best to see what terminology the individual shop uses. My waxing place in the US doesn't distinquish between the two but rather offers the Brazilian with the choice of a landing strip or not. Here, many places use both words.

So which style do you use, ladies? All gone or a landing strip left? Besides, I'd like to know whether all the ladies who left messages here have done the wax! Btw, does that hurt?

One more question, do you feel uncomfy when the new hairs come out?

I prefer waxing to any other means of hair removal as it doesn't feel uncomfortable when the new hairs grow out and it's generally a more gradual process than when you use cream or shave. Waxing hurts, but it's a quick pain, if the beautician knows what she's doing, and the more often you go the fewer hairs you end up waxing at one time, so the pain is less.
