Today, I got a bikini wax. They said it wouldn't hurt too badly, and that it would just sting. My friend heard me screaming from all the way down the hall in the waiting room. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, while waxing my bikini line, my husband thought it would be funny to scare me which caused me to close my legs. I am now sitting in the sink with my best friend pouring hot water "down there" trying to remove the wax. FML
Today, my friend and I decided to get bikini waxes. Afterwards, the women who did the waxing told my friend it was $30 for her wax. Then, in front of the whole salon, the women points at me and says, "You! You so hairy- $35!". FML
Today, I woke up with a wax strip on my chest and my girlfriend sitting next to me on the bed laughing. She pulled the strip. I screamed. FML
Today, when getting my eyebrows waxed, the lady cursed "oh shit!" under her breath, right after waxing half of my brow off. FML
Today, I had to get bloodwork done. I'm deathly afraid of needles. The whole lobby heard me scream as soon as the nurse said 'hello'. FML
Today, I went to the dentist to get a cavity filled. As the dentist was drilling, he accidentally hit a nerve and I ended up screaming in pain. The whole office heard me and now I'm too embarrassed to go back. FML
Today, I was getting my chest waxed. The woman dipped the stick into the wax and hit her elbow, making wax fall into my eyes. FML
Today, I got my hair dyed at a fancy salon. While the stylist was pulling out the foils in my hair I sat up and started screaming in pain because the hot foils were burning my scalp. All she said was "oh, you're fine". I went back home to find an oozing burn wound on my scalp. FML
Today, I tried shaving my bikini area for the first time. I ended up cutting myself several times. I now have impressive razor burn, and it's incredibly painful to even wear pants. FML
Today, I got my wisdom teeth taken out. The two male doctors told me they'd give me anesthesia, but when they did, I could still hear them. I heard them talking about my breasts and how flat they were for a 17 year old. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

They're right. It doesn't hurt "too badly" it hurts like a bitch.

How could you think that it wasn't gonna hurt? That's a really sensitive area of skin...

They're ripping out huge chunks of hair from an area that's normally pretty sensitive. YDI for listening to and believing them instead of using common sense.

Once you've done it a few times it doesn't hurt, and it grows back way thinner, stick at it! X

Actually, while the first time IS always the worst, for most people it does still hurt every time.

16- I agree! I'd she keeps going back it wont hurt at all and the best part is your hair grows back less and less!!

I disagree on the basis that every person is different. I've been doing my own waxing for 5-6 years and it still hurts like a bitch every single time. Doesn't stop me though.

I pray for my hope in the intelligence of humankind that you didn't actually believe them when they told you it wouldn't hurt.

It's best to take an ibuprofen half an hour before your appointment. Still hurts, but nowhere near as bad.
