Who Wears Short Shorts?

Letting himself inside, Eddie looks around, and the house seems empty, even if Steve's car is in the driveway. He pauses, and he's pretty sure he hears the faint sound of music coming from upstairs.

"Hey! Steve?!" Eddie screams, and waits. Nothing.

So, he climbs the staircase, and that's when he hears that the music is coming from the bathroom. He can also hear Steve and Robin talking, arguing, laughing.

When he gets to the doorway, he's very confused.

Very, very confused.

"What exactly is going on here?" Eddie asks, looking back and forth between Steve and Robin, both standing in the bathroom, wearing short shorts, white lotion slathered all over their legs, "And what's that smell?"

Eddie pulls his shirt up over his nose. It smells like some of the chemicals that Wayne sometimes comes home smelling like after a shift at the plant.

It's caustic. Burning his eyes and nose.

Robin wiggles her leg in his direction, "Nair."

"Hold still!" Steve chides her, trying to get her to stop moving without messing up the application.

"Nair," Eddie repeats.

"Nair," Steve confirms.

"And…"

"Who wears short shorts? We wear short shorts! If you dare wear short shorts, Nair for short shorts!" Robin and Steve both sing-song together, loudly, over the already loud music, waving their arms, legs kicking up together into a kickline, the idea of not moving around, obviously long forgotten.

And, oh. Steve's limber. 

Flexible, and Eddie has thoughts he's not supposed to be having right now. 

He feels insane as he reaches over and turns the music down, maybe a first, in his whole lifetime. He's not supposed to be the normal one in any situation. This is wrong. So wrong.

Like, he gets it. He watches TV. He knows what Nair is. Sort of. In theory. He definitely knows the commercial jingle. But he doesn't understand why this is happening right now. He thought they were going swimming. Not, whatever this is.

"You're using Nair? Why?" Eddie asks, because it smells like something that shouldn't be used by humans without proper ventilation. Maybe gas masks. 

"Robin was curious, so I'm showing her how to do it," Steve says, like that's a normal thing for him to say.

"Okay, sure. Of course. New question, why do you know how to do it?" Eddie asks, as he mourns the loss of Steve's leg hair, that Steve is currently in the process of burning off with that eye-wateringly stinky cream. 

"Swim team," Steve says, like that's an explanation. It's not. It's really, really not.

"Swim team," Eddie repeats.

"Yeah, for like, all that aerodynamic shit," Steve says, and Eddie can't help it. He smiles. 

The kitchen timer dings, loud and shrill, in the small room. 

"Is that so?" Eddie asks, leaning against the door jam, watching as Steve wipes the cream off of Robin's legs with a washcloth. Then forces her legs into the tub, one at a time, as he rinses them off. And Eddie can't tell if it worked or not, it's not like Robin's legs were all that hairy to begin with, at least not as far as he's ever noticed. 

But, Steve. Steve's legs are hairy, just like the rest of him, and Eddie's curious. Morbidly, so.

Robin is running her hand over her legs, and Eddie watches as Steve just stands there, grinning at her.

"See?!" Steve says, excited.

Then she coughs.

"I'm gonna go get some fresh air," Robin declares, and Eddie wishes she'd bring a little in for the rest of them, honestly. This bathroom needs a window, desperately.

After she goes, Eddie looks back at Steve, "What about yours?"

"Takes a little longer, my hair is way more thick and coarse than hers," Steve says.

And, yeah it is.

Eddie doesn't want to admit, even to himself, what he thinks about all that body hair Steve has.  But he definitely has thoughts about it. Lots and lots of thoughts.

"I'll do you next," Steve teases.

"The hell you will. I like my leg hair right where it is, Harrington."

"Suit yourself then," Steve says dryly, and he finally starts wiping down his own legs. 

And yeah, he's losing hair up to his knee. Well, some of the hair. A little of it. Honestly, it seems very hit and miss as he wipes it away. Most of his leg hair just looks a little melted, singed, curled. 

Damaged, not removed.

"Is it not working?" Eddie asks, curious what the plan is here.

"Well, it's not perfect," Steve laughs, and it looks pretty bad, but Steve doesn't seem to care, as he adds onto his thought with a breezy, "Oh well."

"Are you just gonna leave it like that?" Eddie asks. Because, honestly. No.

Steve just shrugs, "I guess I could shave them."

And Eddie is pretty sure his brain short circuits, because the next thing that comes out of his mouth is totally against his will, "Can I shave them for you?"

Steve stops, looks at him, then laughs, shrugging his shoulders, "Sure. Okay."

Eddie isn't sure why he asked that, and he feels like his cheeks are on fire. Steve reaches into the medicine cabinet, producing a razor and a can of shaving cream, handing them both to Eddie. Then he plugs the tub, runs some water, and wets his legs with a washcloth, before sitting down on the closed toilet seat. 

Oh shit. 

Shit, shit, shit.

"You want me to…?" Eddie asks, trailing off, waving his hand holding the shaving cream towards Steve's legs.

"You're the one that asked," Steve says, teasing him.

Eddie swallows, kneeling in front of Steve, squeezing some of the shaving foam onto his palm, and then runs it up Steve's leg, applying it, stopping when he gets to the knee.

Steve pulls up on his shorts, his already very short shorts, making them even more indecent, "Might as well go on up."

Eddie's dick twitches at the idea, but he nods, getting some more shaving cream and rubbing it up onto Steve's thighs.

Then he holds the razor in a slightly shaky hand, "You sure you want me to do this?"

Steve shrugs, "It'll grow back."

Eddie nods. That's not exactly what he was asking, but he grips Steve's foot in his hand, and starts running the razor upwards, gently. Trying to be careful. One stripe in, he leans over and rinses the blade off in the tub, looking back up at Steve's face. 

And then keeps shaving, getting everything off his lower legs, before pausing, then just forges ahead. In for a penny, in for a pound.

He puts Steve's heel on his shoulder, giving him access to the underside of his thigh, and he's fully hard in his own shorts now, and he really hopes Steve won't notice. He's sure this isn't supposed to be that. He's not supposed to be getting off on this.

But he is. He really, really is.

He's such a goddamn pervert. 

Then he sees it. The hard line of Steve's cock, pressing against his shorts. His tight shorts.

Eddie drops the razor. It clatters to the tile, and he laughs nervously as he reaches to pick it up.

What is he doing? What are they doing right now? It's madness. It's the fumes. They've gone to their heads. They've lost critical brain function, the both of them. That must be it. It's the only explanation. 

Robin turns back up in the doorway, and they both turn and look at her. It must look crazy, Eddie between Steve's thighs, his leg hoisted up, covered in shaving cream.

"Oh, ew. No," she says, and disappears just as fast as she'd arrived, slamming the door behind her as she goes. 

Steve chuckles, and Eddie gets back to work. Shaving, rinsing. Over and over, until Steve's legs are both bare. 

It's weird, but Eddie can't help himself, and he runs his hand up Steve's calf, slow. Exploring. 

And Steve moans. 

Oh, goddamn. 

Eddie suddenly raises up on his knees, sending Steve backwards, off-balance, falling against the toilet tank. 

"Am I reading this wrong?" Eddie asks, chest heaving. Both of his hands clutching Steve's wet, smooth thighs.

Steve shakes his head, pupils blown wide, and Eddie runs his hand up, cupping Steve through his short shorts. Leaning forward, pressing against Steve, contorting Steve's body, as Eddie leans close enough to kiss him.

And he does, lips barely brushing, lightly, and it isn't lost on Eddie that he put his hand on Steve's dick before they even kissed. 

Steve leans forward, surging into him, kissing back. Hand coming up to press against the back of Eddie's head, pulling him closer. 

And Eddie's sure he'll die right here, for real this time.

If not from the lingering toxic fumes, definitely from Steve.

Pretty husband

"What are you doing?" My wife Jen screamed. I jumped up I had not heard her come home. I was laying on the bed wearing the lingerie I had bought for her last Valentine's day. Jen had worn it only once. I had worn it many times since. The red corset with matching sheer thong. I had ruined the matching stockings but still loved wearing them. I tried to cover myself as I noticed Jen taking pics with her phone.

"Jen I can explain" I wimpered.

"I am sure you can try but this seems self explanatory" Jen told me. She turned and stormed out of the house. Although I was terrified of what she would do. My dick was harder then I could ever remember I quickly masterbated then got changed back to my normal clothes. I tried to call and text Jen but got no response of any kind. I finally fell asleep with no word from Jen.

Jen returned at 10am the next morning. She marched right past me to the bedroom. I jumped up and rushed after her. She was getting undressed when I walked in.

"Beth helped me find your online persona" Jen informed me. I panicked as she continued

"female led marriage "? She smiled as she removed her panties she was now naked as she laid on the bed. She spread her legs.

"Well get to it" she said plainly. I crawled between her legs. I saw dried cum mashed into her hair. I lifted my head and went to say something

"Don't! You know you want it" Jen told me. "Or should I just send everyone the pics of you all dressed up with your little pee pee all excited. I just swallowed hard and licked her pussy. I could taste the salty load of some man as it started to leak form her.

"I learned alot about what you want" Jen said. "Cuckolding can be crossed off your list. Don't worry it won't be the last time " she held my head down as I licked her used pussy. I didn't stop until she came on my tounge.

"Paul things are going to change around here" Jen told me as she laid on the bed naked.

"I can't talk to you like this. Strip" she ordered.

"Jen we can talk, I can explain" I begged.

"PAUL GET NAKED!" Jen said with a raised voice. I quickly stripped.

"No panties" Jen sounded disappointed.

"now since i am revoking your rights in this marriage" Jen stated.

"What does that mean?" I asked.

"Do not interrupt me" Jen said annoyed. As she got up and put on a robe. I fell silent

"Now I am taking full control of this marriage. You may give your opinion if I ask for it. But I will decide alone what actions we will take.

"In addition since you like acting all girlie, you will start today. No more sneaking around touching my things. You will wear your pretty things all the time. And shave those legs so you don't look ridiculous" Jen told me."

"Jen I can't" I started she walked over and smacked me across the face.

"Don't deny this is what you truly want. I have scene your Tumblr. Pinintrest and even your Femlife dating app" Jen told me. "This will also stop. You will not post things or look at inappropriate things online without my approval" Jen informed me.

"You won't have to worry about not satisfying me sexually any more either. As I said before I will cuckold you. Find real men to please me." Jen stood behind me her hand slid across my ass. "But I don't want you touching yourself without my promission either"

"Now, I want you completely free of body hair. The mustache goes as well. Only hair better be one the top of your head" Jen told me. She smacked my ass.

"Get to it" she commanded. I went to the bathroom and filled the tub. I wasn't sure where to start so I started with my face. Then attempted my legs. My penis was hard the whole time. This task was alot harder then I thought it would be. I had been at it for over an hour when Jen walked in.

"Jen I can't reach" I started. Jen went under her sink and pulled out a bottle of nair and a long handled applicator she used for lotion. And handed it to me.

"You will put this on when you finish" she told me touching a pile of clothes. Then leaving me alone again. I read the instructions and used it also to touch up any areas I had missed with the razor. As I waited I looked thru the clothes Jen had left. There was a babu blue thong with a dark blue lace sports bra looking thing. The slacks and shirt seemed to be mine. She also had left a pair of her pink socks. I rinsed off watching the last of my bodybhair gather around the drain. Then got dressed. The bra was easily seen thru the white thin shirt. I came out of the bathroom.

"Do you feel pretty?" Jen asked.

"Yes" I mumbled unable to look at her. The thong unable to hold my erection.

"Good that way you will always remember your place" she told me.

"I expect you to do the womanly duties around here from now on" Jen told me. I was a bit confused by what she meant we had never been a couple that dealt in such roles.

"You will behave as if you are a 1940s wife. All household duties are yours to forfil" Jen informed me. "Don't worry about things that are to manly. I will find someone to help you with them. She walked away. Without another word. I thought about what she had said and seeing dishes in the sink. I went to clean them.

"It's late I will order up some lunch" Jen announced she didn't ask what I would like. About half an hour later the doorbell rang.

"Paulie answer the door" Jen called out. I went to answer aware my bra was on display as well as my pink socks. I hesitated by the door bell rang again. I could see Jen was getting annoyed. I answered the door the young man looked confused but didn't say anything. Jen had paid all i had to do was sign.

She had gotten me a salad and flavored water. So I could watch my girlie figure.

"I have ordered you all new panties. So you don't have to wear mine" Jen told me as we sat and ate. I watched as she ate a burger from my favorite restaurant while I ate my salad.

"A good house wife spends most of their time making sure the house is clean and orderly. I expect you to learn and self motivated yourself to do just that. You will have to pay close attention on laundry. Separate things handwash and such" Jen told me. I worked and with Jen permission I used the internet to learn how to do housework. I worked till about 9pm. Rarely seeing Jen although she was home.

"Bedtime" Jen informed me "now go get ready."

As I brushed my teeth. Jen came in. "You will have to learn a night time routine. Face care, hair, lotion you do want to be soft don't you?" Jen informed me.

"I understand" I said softly. She gave me about a half hour then called me to the bedroom. She handed me a satin nightgown. I changed leaving the my panties. Jen still fully dressed tucked me in.

"Your clitty is still hard, you been excited all day" Jen teased.

"Yes" was all I could manage as her hand slid under the covers. She pulled them back her hands ran down my smooth stomach and hips. She spread my legs but was careful not to touch my erection.

"Roll on your side" she told me she positioned me with my ass towards her my one leg bent her hand slid over my ass crack.

"Have you ever played with your sissy hole?" She asked

"A finger" I mumbled as I answered she applied lube to my hole then worked her finger in.

"My pretty husband likes when I play with you, don't you?" Jen asked.

"Rub yourself, don't jerk just rub" Jen told me as she fingered my ass. Pushing a second finger up my ass.

"Chuck fucked me last night, did you like eating your friends cum out of my dirty cumt?" Jen told me. Chuck was one of my closest friends.

"I showed him the pics of my pretty husband and begged him to fuck me. Since I needed a real man. He has a lovely cock, did you know?" Jen continued. I came in my nightie. Jen removed her fingers and tucked me back into bed.

"Goodnight baby" she said kissing me on the forehead and turning out the light. I layed in bed sticky my mind wondering what else Jen would make me do. Sleep didn't come quickly but I didn't dare to turn on the light or change my clothes. I finally fell asleep before Jen came to bed.

Wow you’re a self care expert! Can you share your hygiene routine please?

I shower every day, usually in the evenings. I dry brush from my feet up to my chest while the water warms up. Then while I'm in the bath, I wash my body first with a natural soap (currently using sandalwood soap but it varies), letting it sit for a while before washing again with a scented shower gel. I also wash under my armpits with Head & Shoulders (the zinc in it helps prevent odour).

I also shave my legs and yoni daily, using conditioner and Gillette Men's Razors (feels smoother than women's razors). I prefer removing my armpit hair with Nair as shaving it makes the armpits dark and discoloured.

After showering, I apply oil all over my body while it's still damp, and apply Brazilian Bum Bum cream on my breasts. I use antiperspirant at night so that it has time to absorb by morning.

After putting on clean pyjamas I'll complete my evening skincare routine (usually I'll have cleansed my face in the shower along with the rest of my body). I prefer doing my skincare routine a couple of hours before going to sleep as that gives the products time to absorb (whereas if you do it right before bed they'll get smeared off on your pillow). And I put my overnight lip mask on every evening. I also like spraying perfume before bed.

This will probably sound like overkill 😅 but as well as moisturising after showering, I also like moisturising my body with a light lotion as soon as I wake up in the morning. Especially as I'm currently taking a medication that has the side effect of drying out skin. I prefer oil straight after a shower but moisturizer can't penetrate oil so I just save the lotions for morning. I also put thick cream on my feet before putting socks on and on my hands before gloves.

I wash my hair twice a week (coarse, thick naturally curly/wavy hair so any more than that makes it feel dry).

Brush my teeth morning and night with Pearl Drops toothpaste and use mouthwash in between meals. I do oil pulling a couple of times a week and teeth whitening strips once a month (I don't use them more often because they make my teeth feel sensitive).

And I don't repeat outfits or shoes days in a row. Shoes and clothes are left to air out for a day (and clothes are washed after 2 uses).

[kitsune-andi]

I guess I have a few questions and comments so bear with me lol.

1. I think you are stunning and I love your outfits!

2. Where do you get your shorts at? I always see them on different people her and I think they’re so cute!

3. I see that you said you’re a shy guy, but do you ever get out around Indy? If so what places do you like going to? I live in northern Indiana myself and am always curious about fun places full of free spirits there lol

4. You would make the best cuddle buddy ever! If you have any secrets on how you get your skin to look so perfect please do share.

Much Love to a good boy🥰

1. 💝💞 Thank you so much! I'm glad you like my cute outfits, you are so kind!

2. I get all my clothes from Amazon haha... I'm too nervous to buy feminine clothes in person so I just have them delivered to my place under a girl's name... 😖 It's always fun to shop for clothes though but it's hard to get the size right cuz the clothes weren't made for boys' bodies. I mostly fit into smalls or mediums.

3. I don't really go out too much haha... Just work and the gym mostly, I am pretty shy and get a bit anxious going to new places. I prefer nature and stuff so I like to go hiking or walk along the canal downtown. My friends are good about inviting me to stuff though, and I can definitely reccommend Massachusetts avenue for some cool shops and good food! Bottleworks is fun too, lots of food and games and a cool movie theatre! But most days I like to stay in and draw or play video games. <3

4. Thank you so much! I should at some point make a post dedicated to skincare and keeping your body smooth because like most boys I was doing it wrong for a long time. My legs are extremely sensitive and get razor bumps very easily, so I have to be very very careful when I shave them. Basically, you should buy high quality razors and replace the blades every two weeks, and use ultra sensitive shaving cream if you can. Using hair removal cream is a great alternative too! Much easier than shaving, but not for everyone's skin. I used Nair before, but that DESTROYED my skin it was so red and itchy for a week! I recently started using Veet on my legs and have had no issues at all with it! I'm gonna keep trying it and if it keeps working well l'll probably use that as my go-to method for hair removal. Of course, exfoliating and moisturizing your skin is also 100% essential. I use an exfoliating cream and scrubber once or twice a week, and I put lotion on my skin after almost every shower, I like the shea butter stuff from bath and body works, it smells great and keeps skin moisturized for a long time!

💝 Thank you for your questions and kind words, I hope this helped!

[kitttenteeth]

Some Q's!

How many piercings do you have? and what kind :O

What body washes & lotions & hair removal products do u use :0? your skin looks so soft and hairless! (hope this isn't weird I was jst curious TvT)

Any bodyhair i don't prefer i wax off using strips or my at - home wax warmer but nothin crazy . My skin feels as soft as a kitten tummy and i attribute that to the peachfuzz .. plus i have rly sensitive skin that breaks out easily so anything like nair or bleaching Is not in the stars 4 me + for shaving I prefer using a men's safety razor . softness most importantly will come from exfoliation (chemical Or physical) and moisturizing !

aaaaaand my fav color is pale pink but I love any shade of pink that bleeds into red 🐾 thabk u

[dreamgrlarchive]

I gotta ask you because I feel like you would know. Does Nair hair remover impact the final look that gradual self tanner (Jurgens). I want to use nair instead of razors but I am afraid of how it might damage my tan.

when i was using nair and the jergens tanner it was fine last year! i’d just recommend making sure your skin is 100% clean and free of residual before putting on the lotion!

[thebergeyshow]

transcending the bonds of plastic

I was in the bathroom, organizing, like any other day, putting things away from a recent restock shopping trip, when suddenly, like the fall of Lucifer, my favorite bottle of Jergens Shea Butter lotion tipped from it's perch on my wire shelving, flew through the air and plummeted 3.5 ft to the ground, slamming its head onto the vinyl flooring. I screamed, as you do. Upon its landing my initial expectation was for there to be lotion everywhere, which, while inconvenient, would not have been the end of the world.

However, the truth was much more sinister. It was, in fact, the end of the world.

The scream I originally released was premature. I uttered another as the realization came to light. My lotion bottle had been d e c a p i t a t e d.

The Queen of Hearts could have done no better herself. Severed at it's life-giving artery, my lotion bottle was rendered unalive. Time of death - 8:06pm.

Naturally, my response time was slowed by shock. I stood for a moment contemplating my options, holding the lifeless bottle in my hands, looking about the bathroom for some kind of a solution to jump out at me, much like this Jergens bottle had done just moments before it's untimely demise.

My eyes landed on an ancient glass bottle that once held Bath and Body Works Sensual Aromatherapy (which was amazing but is no longer sold), but now was really only around because I couldn't bare to admit its empty soul had fled, and I thought to myself, "I can save them both yet".

I sprung into action, unscrewing the tops of both bottles, only to discover... the Jergens bottle neck was larger than the Aromatherapy bottle neck. I froze. Where to go from here.

The following sequence of events will haunt me forever.

My first reaction was to find a pump from another bottle of lotion to attempt pumping the lotion from the Jergens bottle into the Aromatherapy bottle. I didn't have a pump that fit perfectly but I had one that could work. After several heart-pounding minutes of attempting this it became clear the subpar pump would never live up to the prowess of the Jergens pump when it was in its glory and would take an eternity to move the lotion through to the new bottle.

My next plan was to find a lesser bottle top which could allow me to turn the bottle upside down to void it of the lotion. The only one I had which might fit was on an underused bottle of Nair.

I don't think I have to tell you how scary it is to try to use something that has been touched by the devil (Nair) to transport lotion. The idea of slathering on lotion only to have my hair removed in the process... I shuddered to think.

Consequently, I spent a fair amount of time and dedication cleaning the bottle top, carefully removing all remnants of Nair so as to provide myself a clean and effective tool to save my precious Jergens.

I would like to take this time to remind you a full-size bottle of Jergens is $8. I was going through all of this to save $8.

But I digress.

I could not get all the Nair out by hand. I dug through a drawer for a tiny bottle brush. I successfully removed all hazardous material from the bottle top. I secured the bottle top on the Jergens bottle.

In a fraction of the time it took me to clean out the Nair from the bottle top, it was already clear it would not be effective in transferring the lotion to the new bottle. The aromatherapy bottle neck was simply too small to sustain that kind of procedure.

My motivation was on life-support.

Of a sudden, an idea occurred to me. One that seemed so simple, so obvious, that I kicked myself for not thinking of it sooner.

An idea that turned out to be so so very wrong.

"A funnel", I thought, "Why didn't I think of that before?"

I didn't think of it before, dear reader, because it is not, in fact, a good idea. I did not factor in the viscosity of the lotion, nor the lack of airflow between the funnel and the bottle neck.

And so we arrived at what you see below. My greatest work and my greatest shame. A failed attempt at saving $8 which resulted in the wasted efforts of 45 minutes of my life. The decapitated and amputated remnants of the Jergens pump, alongside a plastic spoon, both stuck down through a funnel and glass aromatherapy bottle in a final attempt to force the lotion into the bottle.

My efforts failed. My mission was at it's lowest. I abandoned all hope.

At long last I gave up my futile efforts and submitted to defeat. My time was wasted, my energy low, and finally I allowed myself to see the truth of the matter. No bottle could contain the lifeforce that had once been held so ably by that Jergens bottle. Nothing could compare.

With a heavy heart, I gathered the small plastic containers I had saved from my last three vitamin orders (because I can't throw anything away and now we know why), rinsed them, and dejectedly squeezed the remaining lotion from the Jergens bottle, through the Nair bottle top, into the Flo vitamin jars.

"This has been a company teambuilding project," I thought to myself.

But it was just me, in my bathroom, and I was surrounded only by the company of my mistakes.

[aptenodykes]

woke up with a patch of my arm completely bald (i have super thick/dark hair so it’s noticeable) and covered in little bumps. it’s not painful or red or swollen so i don’t think it’s a bug bite and it’s not any sort of nair/hair removal lotion bc i don’t shave so what the actual fuck happened?

Sugar Waxing at Home: A Sugary Solution for Silky Skin

Introduction In their never-ending pursuit for smooth, hair-free skin, a large number of individuals employ various hair removal techniques. Sugar waxing is a technique that has acquired popularity in recent years. Sugar waxing is a natural and mild alternative to traditional waxing methods for removing unwanted hair. Sugar wax kits designed for home use have made it simpler than ever before to achieve salon-quality results in the comfort of your own home. In this article, we will discuss the advantages of sugar waxing, walk you through the process of sugar waxing at home, and assist you in locating the ideal sugar wax kit for your requirements.

What exactly is Sugaring? Waxing with sugar, also known as sugaring, is an ancient method of hair eradication that originated in ancient Egypt. To eradicate hair from the root, a sticky paste consisting of natural ingredients such as sugar, water, and lemon juice is used. Sugar waxing is gentler on the skin and less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions than traditional waxing techniques that utilize heated or cold wax. Because the sugar paste adheres only to hair and dead skin cells, it is less traumatic than other methods of hair removal.

The Positive Aspects of Sugar Waxing Sugar waxing has several advantages over other methods of hair removal. Firstly, the sugar paste is hypoallergenic and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, because it is composed of natural ingredients. Sugar waxing removes hair from the root, resulting in delayed and finer regrowth than shaving. You may observe that your hair becomes sparser with regular sugar waxing.

Sugar waxing has the added benefit of exfoliating the epidermis as it removes hair. The sugar paste exfoliates your skin delicately, leaving it radiant and smooth. In addition, sugar waxing can be performed at a lower temperature than conventional waxing, reducing the risk of burns and skin injury.

Home Sugar Waxing: How to Get Started At-home sugar waxing is a convenient and inexpensive way to achieve salon-like results. To begin, you'll need a sugar wax kit designed specifically for household use. For optimum results, these kits typically include a jar of sugar paste, wooden applicators, and sometimes pre-wax and post-wax products.

Ensure that your epidermis is clean and dry before beginning. Warm the sugar paste in accordance with the kit's instructions. Using the wooden applicator, apply a thin layer of sugar paste in the opposite direction of hair growth. Place a fabric strip over the paste, press it down firmly, and remove it rapidly in the direction of hair growth. Repeat the procedure until all desired hair has been removed.

Apply a soothing lotion or oil to the skin after waxing to soothe the skin. It is essential to follow the detailed instructions included with your sugar wax solution for optimal results.

Where to Buy Sugar Wax and Sugar Wax Kits Sugar wax and sugar wax kits can be purchased online and in select cosmetic supply stores. Explore e-commerce platforms and websites specializing in natural hygiene products to discover a variety of alternatives. Nair, MOOM, and Sugaring NYC are examples of well-known brands that offer high-quality sugar wax kits. To ensure that you select a reputable brand that meets your preferences, it is important to read product evaluations and examine the list of ingredients.

Waxing is a popular method of hair removal that has been used for centuries. Traditionally, it was performed at salons or by professional estheticians. However, with the rise of DIY culture, more and more people are turning to at-home waxing as a way to save money and time. In this article, we will discuss the benefits of waxing at home, provide a step-by-step guide on how to wax at home, and provide some tips on where to buy the best products.

1. Why choose waxing at home

2. How to wax at home

Before you start waxing at home, there are a few things you need to consider. First, you need to choose the right wax. There are two types of wax: hard wax and soft wax. Hard wax is applied directly to the skin and removed without the use of a strip, while soft wax is applied to the skin and removed with a strip. Hard wax is better for sensitive areas like the bikini line or face, while soft wax is better for larger areas like the legs or back. Once you have chosen the right wax, you need to prepare your skin. Exfoliate your skin a day or two before waxing to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs. Clean your skin with a gentle cleanser and dry it thoroughly. Apply a pre-wax oil or lotion to protect your skin from the wax.

Next, you need to heat the wax. If you are using hard wax, heat it in a wax warmer until it melts to the consistency of honey. If you are using soft wax, heat it in a microwave or a wax warmer until it is warm but not hot. Test the temperature of the wax on your wrist before applying it to your skin.

Now it’s time to apply the wax. For hard wax, apply a thin layer of wax in the direction of hair growth using a spatula. Wait for the wax to cool and harden, then lift the edge of the wax and pull it off in the opposite direction of hair growth. For soft wax, apply a thin layer of wax in the direction of hair growth using a spatula, then place a strip of cloth or paper over the wax and press down firmly. Wait for a few seconds, then pull the strip off in the opposite direction of hair growth.

3. Where to buy waxing at home products

There are many places to buy waxing products online and in-store. Here are some popular options:

Amazon: Amazon offers a wide variety of waxing kits, waxes, and accessories from different brands.

NanaCorner Store : There are many soft and hard hair removal products, hair removal utensils ,.

Ulta Beauty: Ulta Beauty has a range of waxing products from popular brands like Gigi, Nair, and Sally Hansen.

My shower routine 🧼🌺

I wanted to hop on and discuss my shower routine with y'all because I love you <3 I have different types of shower routines based on what's going on but this will just be a run down on my everyday shower not including hair care or anything fancy. I'll make sure to include products I use and be as throughout as possible without getting angry at the ten image limit lol.

♡ Washing up ♡

First I usually start by the first wash up process I'm a really big fan of the Dove Beauty Cream Bar, they come in many many fragrances but of course, being obsessed with the color pink, I use this one. Down below and I also on other occasions use the Dove Renewing Peony & Rose oil body wash. I ALWAYS use a loofah for washing up. It distributes suds well especially with doves body wash, it's a wonderful combination.

♡ Feminine hygiene time ♡

While the vagina is self cleaning I personally choose to wash down there anyways, how you take care of your genitals is absolutely your choice. Please consult an ob gyn if you have any personal questions about what you should do I am NOT a gynecologist. I've heard that some girls and women choose to use a sensitive baby soap, a Dove Sensitive skin bath bar or simply settle for the feminine wash products they find at the store. I personally use Vagisil Sensitive Plus. It's meant for sensitive skin as well.

♡Hair Removal♡

Usually after my first complete wash up I'll move on to removing any body hair that I may have that I don't want. Typically I'll use a razor to remove leg hair or any type of stomach hair or "happy line" I may have. BUT anywhere that I'm extremely likely to get ingrown hairs, hyperpigmentation, etc. Especially being someone who's melanated I use a hair removal cream instead. There's a really wonderful video about how poc are more likely to experience bad effects from shaving in sensetive areas by Dr Semi Adedeji on YouTube. Click here to watch it. There's multiple hair removal creams on the market but personally, at the moment, I use Nair hair removing lotion. It's definitely helpful when avoiding irritation from razors and ingrown hairs. I even considered waxing at some point because I was tired of what shaving did to my skin 🥺 for the parts that I do shave I highly recommend a three our four blade razor to get the closest shave possible. At the current moment, I use Soleil's three blade razors.

♡ Exfoliation ♡

This is probably my favorite part, something about exfoliating just hits a deep itch you can't ever usually reach. It's like scratching the mosquito bite on your ankle you really shouldn't be scratching. I LOVE exfoliation gloves and sugar scrubs. On some days I typically don't use sugar scrubs there's times when I'll lather up my exfoliating gloves with some more body wash or with my beauty bar and give my skin an extra scrub. Kind of like knocking out two birds with one stone, this is what I refer to as my second wash up. I hear a lot about Tree Hut sugar scrubs they're very popular in the self-care community.

This is where I'd rinse one last time and get out 🧸💗 I will be making a second post about my after shower routine as well it's just as important.

Stay pretty, - 𝓑

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS for PREVENTING RAZOR BUMPS and INGROWN HAIRS

1. THOU SHALT NOT USE DIRTY BLADES!

Using a blade that's been used way too many times. Yes, this one may be obvious, but be sure to keep your used tools as clean as possible. Soap and rubbing alcohol will destroy bacteria. Pro Tip: even brand new blades need to be cleaned.

2. HONOR THY DELICATE SKIN!

Too many blades! If you are prone to ingrown hairs then you don’t need 3 or more blades. More blades equal more passes causing the hair to fall beneath the skin and become ingrown plus more blading the skin leads to micro cuts through which bacteria is more likely to enter and this leads to razor burn.

3. DO NOT TAKE PREP TIME IN VAIN!

You should be using a warm/hot water prep (3-5 mins). Then leave the shaving cream on for more than 2-3 minutes to really soften the hair. The hair stubble should literally fall away with little or no pressure at all. Pressing hard is the problem! Be gentle ya'll.

4. THOU SHALT NOT GO AGAINST THE GRAIN!

Shaving against the grain (upwards) may get you a closer shave but doing so also increases ingrowns. Shave in the direction of hair growth…it’s usually downwards. Check by doing a face/ body inspection to see which way your hair grows.

5. THOU SHALT NOT PRESS!

Pressing too hard on the skin with the blade. A gliding, light touch is all you need. This is likely your biggest issue.

6. THOU SHALT NOT PASS, PASS, PASS!

Too many quick passes with the blade. One pass per hairy area – going 1-2 inches downward at a time – will prevent ingrown hairs. Always shave like you might cause damage, not like your mowing the front yard lawn.

7. THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT OVER SHAVING!

Shaving too many times. This rule is hard to follow, especially if you have to be beardless for your career…but if you are prone to ingrowns, try shaving with an electric clipper (the barber kind of clippers). The results are not super close but no one but you will know the difference. Ladies: try waxing, Nair, or an epilator provided your skin can handle these alternatives.

8. THOU SHALT NOT CLOG!

Use of skin/pore clogging creams or lotions keep hairs from growing up. After a shave, keep your skin bare; let the tiny army breath, and allow those newly shaved, really small, microscopic hairs to grow out just in time for the next shave. If your objective is smooth, bump-free skin following a shave or wax then, right after, your goal should be to allow the skin to heal first. Promote healing by proper shaving techniques followed by 70% rubbing alcohol (this kills any bacteria that may enter those micro cuts created from the shave). Using a dab of TendSkin prevents the onset of razor burn. Sure your skin will be a little dry at first but this is a temporary tradeoff. Give it a few hours and let the moisturizing commence!

9. KEEP THY SMOOTH SKIN FREE!

At least for the first day or two, try to avoid tight fitting clothing around the Adam’s apple (neck) and/or below the waistline region. Newly shaved hair follicles need room to raise up.

10. REMEMBER TO EXFOLIATE!

Whether you shave, sugar, wax or epilate, not enough exfoliation to remove excess layers of skin can lead to ingrown hairs. There are two types: chemical exfoliation (AHA, BHAs) and physical exfoliation (beads, coffee scrubs, gloves, brushes). Use an ingrown hair brush for razor bumps as directed. Make sure it’s a brush that has gentle bristles designed to tease newly shaved hairs away from entering the skin before they can become ingrown. If you have sensitive skin, then go with the soft and firm bristles. The Wizker brush has both options. If you follow these 10 tips religiously, you’ll prevent razor bumps and ingrown hairs permanently!
