Are you considering a bikini wax, but wonder if it will be different because you are a big woman, then do not worry. Here is some information that you, a big woman, can use to help make your bikini wax a good experience:
Consider your health. First, make sure that you use an experienced licensed cosmetologist. Next, you need to consider your health before deciding to get a bikini wax. If you are pregnant, you could cause trauma to the baby with the pain that a bikini wax induces. As well, if you end up with an infection, you could cause the baby risk by having to take antibiotics. A diabetic needs to refrain from getting a bikini wax, as well, because a diabetic is more susceptible to infections, which could easily occur as a result of a bikini wax. Heart problems are another health issue to consider. The key question would be whether or not your heart would endure the quick bouts of pain as the wax rips the hair from your body.
Stretch marks count. As you accumulate stretch marks, your skin gets thinner because a stretch mark is actually a separating of the tissue when your skin has been stretched too far. So, if you have a lot of stretch marks, it might be harder to remove the hair from these areas, and it will certainly be more painful because of the thinned skin. So, if you have a lot of stretch marks, make sure that you take something to help alleviate the pain before you get your bikini wax done and allow extra time for difficult hair removal.
Body cleanliness is key. Making sure that your body is clean before the waxing helps prevent infections. While the licensed cosmetologist will use a cleansing solution to help with this, do not solely rely on this cleansing method, employ your own. Using an exfoliating cleanser every night for several nights before your waxing will help cleanse the hair follicles and slough off any dead skin. This will help with breakouts that can result after the bikini wax and can also help prevent infections. While you can find many exfoliating washes online, I recommend the 20% herbal glycolic wash at http://www.agemanagement.com/ for help with cleansing. While this is a face wash, it works great on your entire body. It is actually the best that I have found. You can feel the difference in your skin after just 2 or 3 uses.
Modesty works. A larger woman has more area to cover, so wear a pair of panties that you usually wear when getting a bikini wax. This will possibly make it easier for the cosmetologist to judge the lines of the wax, without asking you how much you want to remove. Plus, it will provide some covering for you, while helping with the management of any skin folds that you have due to being a larger size. All in all, unnecessary questions will not make you feel different or out of place.
Manage the pain. Remember that a larger size means less skin per area. In short, your skin is stretched more than it would be for a smaller size person, so you will likely suffer more pain than a smaller person due to less skin per area. Take some ibuprofen (or similar) to help manage the pain before you get a bikini wax.
