Today, I tried giving myself a bikini wax for the first time, and I'm pretty sure I didn't do it right. Now I'm laying on my couch with a wet rag and ice inbetween my legs. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, 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, I tried waxing for the first time. At first it felt like I'd dipped my balls in a furnace. Now I can't even feel them. FML
Today, I was waxing my legs and somehow dropped an enormous dollop of hot wax on my naked crotch. I refused to yank it off, but still had to cut it off with scissors. So now I have a huge patch of pubic hair way shorter than the rest of it. It looks a right mess FML
Today, I tried to wax my own Brazilian. My housemate’s cat rolled onto a half-used wax strip on the floor. The poor cat now has a small, less-fluffy patch, and I still haven’t figured out how to wax myself. FML
Today, I attempted to wax my "lady area". It hurt more than losing my virginity. FML
Today, my fiancé is returning home, so I decided to wax myself, thinking things would get intimate. I warmed the wax strips and set them on the counter. Our cat jumped onto the counter and managed to roll onto one of the strips. Suffice to say, the wrong pussy got a painful waxing. FML
Today, being tired of all the shrubbery growing “downstairs”, I decided to give my lady bits a good waxing. So, naturally, I now have a tiny tear in my right labia and I'm scratching my itchy buttcrack with an old toothbrush. FML
Today, I shaved my legs for the first time in three weeks. It took half an hour, three disposable razors, and I cut my legs up so badly they look worse then they did when they were hairy. FML
Today, I got a Brazilian wax in anticipation of becoming intimate for the first time this weekend with a man I have dated for a few weeks. I'm so sore it hurts just to walk. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

ok one: unless you are a pro or have actually bikini waxed before like in a course. NEVER EVER do it yourself. two: there us such a thing as hot wax and strip wax, and depending on what you are using you have to apply the wax a certain way and pull a certain way. three: If you are a girl, waxing in that area is more painful when you are or close to having, your period. fourthly: you have to taught (pull your skin tight) your skin so it is less painful. the softer or flexiable the skin the more chances it will hurt and brusies will form.

Fail? WTF.

More like "Fail!" That seems like the kind of thing you should get done professionally the first time around. You could take mental notes on what to do and then handle the maintenance at home.

Once again ImaginaryFoe speaks the truth. (However we don't know if she didn't do this, as she just says its the first time she tried it herself) However waxing can hurt anyway, are you sure you're not just particularly sensitive, OP?
Chanti_fml 26
Autch, that hurts just thinking about it. OP, if you're not sure how to do it...don't. You could also, before trying something new, look up online how.

The most important thing is that u ended up getting wet between your legs....

why would you ever do a bikini wax yourself the 1st time ?! get it done right and see how it's done , then maybe you could do it yourself after that ? you soooo diserve it

I'm pretty sure stuff like that should come with directions. But ouch. But then again, YDI because you were too cheap to get it done, an just because you do.

47- Sometimes it's not a matter of being cheap, so much as some girls might not be comfortable with a stranger down there. 78- Shaving that area is horrible. I worked for a GYN who insisted no girl should shave down there. Waxing is the way to go, just not so much on yourself.
Miss_Represented 0
Uh YDI!! Why would you attempt something like that?! You always do a SMALL test area, then say eff it and go to a professional who knows WTF is up

91, I like your tattoo. (:

nah, you did it right.
nerdsgetmehot 23
#94 What were her reasons for shaving down there being bad? I'm pretty curious, since that's what I do. Waxing didn't work out well for me since I did it myself. I didn't have enough money to get it done professionally...
prousey 0
hah. now your on the rag :}
jadedwaitress 0
Like imaginary foe said, ALWAYS get it done by a professional first. If your embarassed to show your vag to someone who works with them all day, then shave. I've been shaving there for 5 years or more now. Ive had a brazillian and the combination of the pain and having to grow it out made me opt for shaving. Actually growing it out was the biggest problem for me. I prefer not to spend half my time looking like a Yeti. Yes shaving might grow back faster, but it doesn't make me scream and I can do it whenever I like.

Kelly Clarkson? O.o What does she have to do with bikini waxing?

lol

That was him really getting waxed in those scences. I bet those screams were real. Even if the op did the waxing correct it hurts! When you trim your hairs before waxing it hurt less for some reason. Just don't do it too short that the hairs won't grip w/ the wax.
jadedwaitress 0
Ew Ive seen those pictures of Demi au natural and it was disgusting. I'm all for leaving it whatever way you prefer but when it goes halfway down your thigh and up to your bellybutton that shit is sick.

I think that's why most people go to a professional, or at least enlist the help of a close friend... Sucks to be you, but you kinda deserved it. Sorry :-(

Wow that must be some close friend!
