    too much information....(everything you want to know about waxing)

    haha, I had to go look up "brazilian wax" on google.

    here's tmi
    I have what's called ( I guess) a "playboy" wax (except I don't wax) Oh, my the things you learn on the internet. All I"ll say is this, it drives my hubby crazy and that's good for me.

    here's WAY tmi...

    Technically speaking there are four types of bikini waxes.

    1.The Bikini Wax - Hair is removed from outside the panty line.
    2.The Brazilian Bikini Wax - Leaves a vertical stripe in front, two to three fingers in width. Hair is not removed from the labia. Hair is removed from the tush. Hair may be removed from the butt crack if woman wishes.
    3.The Playboy Bikini Wax - All hair is removed from the labia, all hair is removed from the tush, including the butt crack and only a very narrow strip is left in the front. Named after Playboy magazine because that's what you see on the models in Playboy.
    4.The Full Bikini Wax - It's all taken off baby. Everywhere. Everything. Bald.

    another factor, especially if you live in a warm and /or humid climate it is important to also get out of your shorts, washed off and out thoroughly and then wear cotton underpants ( yes I know they are not glamorous but it does help the area breath) and sleep with your bottom half bare or in loose cotton shorts to continue airing and drying out.

    Another factor in saddle sores is toughening up the nether region by riding hours in the saddle, that of course with the usual caveat about saddle, bike fit and snugly fitting shorts.
