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????

David Beckham

Carlos Bocanegra

Cristiano Ronaldo

YES PLEASE!!!!!!

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!!!!

John Mayer and The Situation

While watching all of the publicity hype for the premier of the movie, MacGruber, it seemed as if the character Vicki St. Elmo, played by Kristin Wiig, got a taste of her VERY OWN hairy situation.  She talked on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon about the hot-and-bothered sex scene her and MacGruber (played by Will Forte) had, on her birthday nonetheless.

Wiig said that there was absolutely no A/C, it was 95-degrees, on satin sheets, and both she and Forte were drenched in sweat.  To put a little cherry on top – Wiig explained that during this sex scene Forte’s chest looked like a SWEATER and it was acting like a “vessel” for the sweat to drip on her – EWWW!!!

At least Wiig and Forte have been long-time friends and they can joke about this hairy mess, literally.

Ladies – have you ever gotten into a situation like this? Have you ever said anything to your significant other??

Ladies and Gentleman….I would like to introduce to you Mr. Jerry Seinfeld!!! Well…sorta…..ha!

I wanted to let everyone know that tomorrow Completely Bare Spa will be featured on Jerry Seinfeld’s very own show, debuting tomorrow called, The Marriage Ref, with Tina Fey and Eva Longoria.

YOU HAVE TO WATCH, not just because we will be mentioned but because the show is FALL-TO-THE-FLOOR HYSTERICAL!!!!

I am already scheming up a new specialty spa services to offer Jerry. Does anyone know if he is hairy?

Let’s be honest, if Jerry is talking about laser hair removal, everyone has some type of hairy situation!

Enjoy the show…

Hello ladies!

Ok, so let’s take this in a bit of a different direction. I know that we primarily talk about our own hairy situations, but let’s gear this one towards men because, face it, we date ‘em, hate ‘em, and sometimes even love ‘em. And to this end, we are going to make Wednesdays the “About Men” blogging day.

THE UNIBROW
Whether he over-plucks, shaves, or just lets it grow, every man has his own (usually misguided) way of handling his brows. Here are some ways to approach the man in your life who has no idea what he’s doing. . . contrary to what he may think:

THE PERFECT BROW-MAN
This is that guy who has better shaped and arched brows than you do. You can actually just stare at how perfect they are (ladies we’re still talking about the brows!). We don’t want American idol Adam Lampert eyebrows. So how do you let him know how to rough them up a little? First off, your dates shouldn’t be at the spa for his-and-her eyebrow waxing appointments. Let him know that his brows look sexier when they are more natural and that you can help him clean them up in-between appointments with tweezers (and an ice cube to numb the area because we all know men can’t stand any pain).

CATERPILLAR MAN
This is the guy that is “au natural” and thinks nothing of it—you can’t help staring and mentally strategizing on how you can fix them. Warm him up with a simple head massage (hidden tweezers at arms’ length), then go for the gold—or the hair! Start out gently by plucking one hair at a time, pressing on the skin immediately after the hair is drawn to relive the sting. Believe me, he’ll appreciate this!

THE SHAVERHOLIC
This is that guy that thinks razor stubble on his brow is just as normal as his five-o’clock shadow. NO, NO, NO!!!! Let Mr. Wonderful know that his stubble looks awfully painful on his brows and that he can take five seconds to wax them—that way he won’t end up with razor bumps and ingrowns. Also let him know that he can save money because shaving the extra brow hair can dull his razors…

Good luck ladies and please let us know your feedback ;)
