if you want to try doing it yourself, there's a wax that surgiwax makes just for brazilians. it sticks to the hair, not to the skin. i use it when i don't have money to go to the salon.

This is all very good advice. Has anyone heard of the "No Scream Cream"? It's suppose to numb you down there? I wonder if it works.
