I get to learn about Brazilian wax about 5-6 years ago at Strip Ministry of Waxing at The Curve when I went there for upper lip waxing. I did not ask the person about it, instead I went home and google about "Brazilian wax" and was shocked to find out that: PEOPLE DO WAX THEIR PRIVATE PARTS!
How did they do it?
Isn't it painful?
Oh yucks, you have to flash your private part to a stranger?
oh and the stranger will then touch your private part and remove the "bush"?!
Nop, I don't get the idea at all.
Back in September 2014, I decided to FINALLY try out Brazilian wax and search for it on Groupon and I found Skye Rose. I bought 2 Brazilian waxes for only $45! After my first experience, I told my roommate about it as we need to get ready for our "beach moment" at Cancun, Mexico. After our first time, we both agreed that it was actually not that scary, and the experience and service provided by Skye is great!
From there, we purchased a package of 5 for $75, which has no time limit for it. Do the simple math, it's only $15 for one time. STEAL!
These pictures are taken during my final waxing with Skye. I asked her if I can blog about my waxing experience with her and she agreed. *hooray*
Skye Rose's shop is located at South Wabash, Chicago. It's a cozy unit with 2 rooms.
Usually, all the "clean and clear" work are done in this room.
Simple decorations on the wall
A certified and licensed aesthetician she is.
Pricing and promotions for Summer 2015. If you are in her mailing list, she would send out great deals through there.
She is Skye, taking her job seriously.

Yup, I even told her "don't mind me" doing this and she was so cool about it.

Skye uses Gigi Milk Chocolate Creme Wax for all her clients. If you are new to this place, she would definitely ask you if are allergic to chocolate. My reaction was: wait, there's people allergic to chocolate?
Her answer was: yes some people do.
If there's any unpleasant reaction when you eat chocolate, then you are most probably allergic to chocolate.
Skye makes me feel so comfortable during my first wax with her. That is why I went back for more. Sometimes people do not just seek for promotions and deals, if the service is not good, people would rather pay for more for a pleasant environment and service.
LOL, this is our favorite picture. Picture taken while Skye is waxing for my roommate.
Skye is definitely a easy-going person. She would chat with you and explain what she does so that you have an idea of what's going on. Look at her cheeky face, this is the kind of aesthetician you would want to have!
So the question now is: is it painful?
My answer: yes it is, I wouldn't lie. I was more in shock than pain when the first strip just went off. However, it is bearable. The professional knows what she is doing. Besides, the more you do it, the lesser the pain it is.
I misses the great deals and experience with Skye Rose. Now I am back in Malaysia, it's time to search for a waxing place which I am comfortable with. Questions and comments? Leave it right below or drop me an email
