It seems like these days, everyone, myself included, is trying to save money where ever they can.  Enjoying the luxury of paying someone to do the things we have no desire to do has become a thing of the past.  There are a few exceptions of course. I wouldn’t recommend filling your own cavity, nor would i suggest do-it-yourself stitches. This past Sunday, while flipping through the channels, I came across Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami on E!.  For those of you that missed it, Khloe gives Kourtney an at-home Brazilian wax (with every pull of the wax, I felt my own “place” hurt!)  Owning completely bare, of course, I think that is one of those things better left to a professional.  First of all, there are just some angles you cant reach. Second, hot wax + a nervous hand = sitting on a special pillow for a week.  Is this something any of you guys have ever tried yourself?  If so, what was your experience like?

Xo,

Cindy

I must say sharing is caring, even though sharing might sometimes be “sneaking.”  Sneaking as in the medicine cabinet….recently I’ve been noticing that my skincare has been running low.  I know, I know, I slather it on but definitely NOT that much!

Finally, after doing my best Law & Order detective work I find out that my beau has been using it more religiously than I have.  Once I confronted him about it he tossed into the “argument” that I have been wearing his jeans as a fashion statement.  OK…GUILTY!!!

Beauty products and spa services are no longer the norm for only women but men TOO! Men are caring about their appearances more than ever, even if it means “sneaking around” the medicine cabinet through all of your products! ;)

What is the weirdest thing you found your boyfriend taking from your medicine cabinet

I’ve always wondered why some of my past boyfriends had smoother legs than me…the answer…I have a GUILTY PLEASURE for soccer players and apparently they shave their legs for several “reasons”:

• When you have smooth legs it is less painful when removing bandages (bc we all know that boys do not have high pain tolerances)
• When you are hairless it tends to show off muscle definition better (TYPICAL!)
• Having shaved legs makes you feel “faster”

With the FIFA WORLD CUP 2010 taking over the world one game at a time, I find myself trying to see who is smooth and who is not…

Ladies, what do you think? Would you date a man with smoother legs than you…??

What if it was England’s co- coach David Beckham, USA’s captain Carlos Bocanegra or Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo????

Ladies, ladies, ladies…you know that we have all been in a predicament from a day of not shaving…DON’T LIE! It has DEFINITELY happened to you AT LEAST once where you might have a little more than stubble….let’s hope!!!

What about those people that call it a “tradition/trend” to NOT shave their legs hair or underarms hair shaving? Yeah, I know that Julia Roberts (and the two women I saw on the subway platform) tried to pull that one off but that’s something I would NEVER do on PURPOSE!!!

I’m single in the city of dreams, trying to get a date and I’m sure this summer guys ARE NOT looking for a girl that has braids under her armpits in a flirty Tracy Reese sundress.

NO! THANK! YOU!

People, stop being lazy and making “excuses”!! If you cannot shave everyday opt for laser hair removal or even a hair inhibitor like completely smooth hair inhibitor to prolong shaving….because honestly, do NOT run your hairy legs against mine, unless you’re a tall, dark and handsome man! Ha!

JUST SAY NO TO STUBBLE!!!

    I have to say I disagree with this and am even a bit offended. I am a shaver and a waxer but there was a point in my life where I let it all grow. I have also been in relationships with women who did not shave. So what? People should feel beautiful the way they want to feel beautiful. And if it is via waxing, then awesome, this Salon is here for you. But if not, they should not be made to feel less than or unhygenic in any way.

  2. I have to agree — this is completely offensive and downright bitchy. I’m a fan of Completely Bare, but don’t belittle and bully your customers into feeling monstrous for being human.

    Lesson learned, don’t post in haste… I apologize for my anti-hair tirade as the subway can make any woman feisty. This was by no means meant to be a judgment upon those who prefer to go a little au natural. However, when I am nose-to-pit with another girl on the subway who is less than groomed, my inner bare girl kicks in. Although I know everyone has their own style and I am a true believer in embracing your individuality.Thank you for your comments Cindy

  4. I agree with you, Cindy. Although I do think women should feel comfortable in their own skin- personally it’s much nicer when things are super smooth and bare as possible. I don’t think this post was pigeon-holing the unshaven as Unhygienic, nor did it make me feel like a monster for my going on 2 weeks of what I’ve been trying to convince myself was just a light stubble on my legs bc I’ve been too lazy to shave. Will my boyfriend dump me bc of this? Of course not. Should I lock myself inside for daring to not be bare? Don’t be ridiculous. But I for one think there is nothing sexier then when I’m lying next to my dude and I know my legs are silky smooth. Taking care of myself makes me feel empowered- and for me that includes a clean shave.
    I think it’s a matter of opinion, and I don’t think feelings should be hurt over a hair removal spa promoting just that- hair removal. Whether you shave or don’t- you shouldn’t take yourselves so seriously…after all, it’s just hair!

Well ladies….it seems as if we have yet ANOTHER HAIRY SITUATION…just when you thought that John Mayer could blissfully sweep you off your feet with some romantic lyrics and an acoustic guitar see below for Exhibit A.  Definitely NOT a WONDERLAND down there!

John, clean up your act (literally) and have The Situation teach you a lesson (never thought I would be saying that).

CLEAN THAT HAIR OFF!!!!! COMPLETELY BARE!!!!
