Trust us, they've seen worse Waxers often get asked questions like "is this the most hair you've seen?" or "am I the biggest baby you've had?" and almost always, the answer is no. As Barshop explains, "there's always somebody worse."
However, there is something you can do that will gross out your waxer: not clean up beforehand. Shays says at least twice a week she has to send a client to the bathroom with a wet wipe because they have poop on them. It's awkward for the waxer and mortifying for the customer, so clean up before your appointment to avoid the whole issue. Nacion says unfortunately, about 10 percent of her customers don't freshen up before their appointments (even if they've been to the gym or just got off a 12-hour flight) -- and it's usually the people who think they're fine that need it the most.
There are some things seriously wrong with this article. Its is not sanitary AT ALL to double dip. if the wax is hot enough to kill ALL bacteria.. it would have to be at abou 300 + degrees, which would obviously burn someone. Secondly, I would never do a Brazilian on someone who had their period, even with a clean tampon. It's usually not recommended to do a bikini wax either, but that's easier to work around. And last, just because a wax hurts, does not mean the person doesn't know what they're doing. You're getting hair ripped out of your body, ITS GOING TO HURT. Really terrible and misleading article.

Definitely some things here that I've never heard from anyone else. Not sure if that's good or bad...

Nice, but I'm still hesitant about waxing because it's painful.
