My waxing lady told me she had a client who tried to do a Brazilian at home… the client did a small bit then changed her mind , she hopped in a hot bath to “wash off” the wax and got stuck in the tub. The client then called to flatmates who couldn’t pull her out. Her flat mates then called the ambulance who called the fire service who cut part of the bath out then the ambulance took her to hospital where they removed the bath piece and wax with solvents! Welp! Can you imagine?

During school I trained to be a beautician, the salon that I trained at did full body waxing. I was the youngest one there so the ladies at the salon would give me the clients that they didn’t want. One day, a overweight lady came in and wanted a Brazilian wax. She had a foul scent, so they gave the lady to me. I offered her wet wipes and asked if she wanted to go to the bathroom before I start. When I started, the smell worsened. I also had to ask one of the salon ladies to lift her rolls to get to her lady area. Her lady area had crusted shit in her lady area hair. I was still new to waxing, so I ended up throwing up on overweight lady.
Theoverweight lady ended rolling off the table and the firefighters had to be called because no one could lift her up. The salon ladies offered the overweight lady a free service and refused to keep training me. After that I quit my dream of being a beautician and started studying Hospitality.

I was a hairstylist before becoming an esthetician full time and I had to do a man’s brazilian. I’m about 90% sure he did porn or lewd modelling or something bc of his body and how exact and picky he was. He requested me to wax his shaft and balls. Like pull it tight and rip the shit off. Then he asked me to sit there, and tweeze any hairs I missed. I don’t wax below the neck anymore.

I’m a hairstylist but an esthetician friend of mine said she kept a small container of Vick’s vaporub in her apron pocket and would smear a bit on her upper lip before doing certain peoples brazillains because of the smell.

Once had a lady who was rather large, always had awful hygiene and smelled as though she hadn’t showered for days. She had those..red scabby lines in the folds of her fat and when she lifted on her skin to stretch for the wax removal, a rotten stench would be released from the crevice. She had eczema and very dry, scaly skin around her bikini line and anus. Sort of reminded me of lizard skin. Omgg I used to dread the days she was booked in with me.

This was waxing myself, not others, but once I tripped while carrying a hot jar of wax. I was naked as I was about to wax my muff and just got a new sofa. In the split second of tripping for some mystifying reason I decided that instead of letting the wax get on the new sofa I’d put my body under the spillage. I ended up with scalding hot wax stuck to my stomach area. It burned me and as I have a pretty deep belly button, took a while to cool. I couldn’t move in this period as I didn’t want to spill the wax more.
When it had cooled I had to spend 2 hours slowly detaching the wax from my burned skin and tiny stomach hairs that it had welded to.I was half laughing at my stupidity and half crying at the pain. My mum called during and couldn’t stop laughing at me.
