JODER

so cultural difference between america and spain

spain REALLY likes things like veet, nair, wax, and laser hair removal whereas america really likes things like razors

my spanish mom has been telling me since i got here that i had to get waxed
that it was so much easier
that its so much more permanent
and its cheap here

(eyebrows here: 3 euro, eyebrows at home: $36)

so i did it (therein enters the joder)

eyebrows, down = all done (minus the arms of course cuz that would just be weird)
so eyebrows were fine...weve all done that plenty of times
legs hurt more than i expected
underarms and...privates...hurt less than i expected...also there was some minor minor bleeding in the underarm area

so now that its over...and i no longer feel like i was bruised in strange places
underarms and privates = worth it
legs = so not worth it

apparently my legs are mostly fine blond hair with only SOME properly waxable hair
so it hurt and i still think i feel like a fur ball

final conclusion:
if spanish women do this on a regular basis, they are completely entitled to live up to their hot-tempered, bitchy reputation

Excellent, excellent! I might be Spanish then. I mean, permanent hair removal wise. hopefully not hot-tempered, bitchy-wise?
