sis its ok na magpawax kahit maitim ang UA they wont tell naman sa iba at hindi ka nila kilala..it will remain confidential  hahaha.. magpawax ka muna before applying the ua peeling set kasi bawal magshave/wax within 2 months

manipis ang tubo niya..its been a week at wala pa ring tumutubo sa ua ko..

[gorgeous_juLia02]

sakit daw yan..magdudugo pa ata eh..

[erchie]

sakit daw yan..magdudugo pa ata eh..

kapag sanay ka pa hindi na masakit..
pero sa mga first timers? hindi ko lang alam kasi madali din mawala yung pain
if hindi maganda yung procedure ng waxing it might bleed talaga ung ibang parts lang naman..

pero its better that shaving

san ka nagpa wax and how much?

[bluesweet_raindrops]

wax ang method ko nung first time kong inalis yung hair sa UA ko.
hindi naman siya masakit ah. tolerable naman.
pwede nga siyang magblees pero sobrang onti lang, parang dot dot lang

[sungitqueen]

mas mganda tlga mag-wax if u can't afford laser (i wanna try that... pag may pera na ko... hehe) dati i shave n pluck. jan ko nkuha ung chicken skin n dark ua (i dnt use deo e). waxing causes these also pro d kcng grabeh pg shave n pluck. shaving causes ingrown, am not sure bout plucking and waxing. at ska pg ngshave k prang may black na butlig2 kc d nman tlga naalis ung hair. tpos pg ngpluck k mgkkstiff neck k p. hehe preho lng nman pg plucking and waxing, mas mdali nga lng mgwax. kc pag plucking isa-isa e. sa waxing mnsanan. and pg ngwax k numinipis ung hair sa ua unlick pg shaving kumakapal. tpos after ilang days tumutubo na ulit ung hair. unlike waxing, hair starts to grow p lng about 1 1/2 - 2 weeks. un nga lng u have to wait for the hair to grow in a certain length bfore u can wax again.

ntakot dn ako nung una ko itry but once u get the hang of it khit cguro nkapikit (exaggeration na lng) mggwa mo. kc ako once natry ko mg-wax un na tlga gngwa ko. numipis ung hair ko sa ua n d na xa umitim p lalo. proven na numinipis tlga hair sa waxing kc winawax ko dn ung sa bikini area n numipis ung hair ko dun. mejo kumapal na lng xa ulit kc nung time na sbrang tamad ako mgwax shinashave ko xa ulit. d p mputi ung ua ko coz i've done nothing about it yet pro waxing is a step already. i would try the kate jones set soon to also get that "mgandang ua". hehe i wanna get rid of ung chicken skin coz i think un ung rison why my ua is knda dark. prang zebra stripes.

Can someone post the exact instruction for waxing?   Possible parin to have presentable underarms with waxing but, hindi peeling ang gagamitin for underarm whitening

I've been getting good reviews with Epilin

Thank you sungitqueen, if you are referring to the folds sa underarms. normal lang yun, don't be bothered by that.  If you stretch your skin, mawawala naman yan temporarily

[sungitqueen]

i'm using epilin. natry ko na sally hansen ganun dn nman. meron nga lng ksma un na prang soothing lotion. mas cheap p epilin it's on d way of using it lng.

what i do is heat it first sa stove. d pde microwave kc ung llgyan nya is aluminum. dati hinhntay ko na mtunaw lhat kc gngamait ko dn sa bkini area. but if sa ua lng , knti lng ung kailngan mo. wag mo hntayn na maging liquid xa kc mghhntay k p mtagal for it to cool down and to get to the right consistency. pgka naging prang honey-like na xa or mas mlabnaw p knti kc mxdo mlapot ung honey e, u test it first sa kmay mo. kung tolerable na ung init kc pg mxdo mainit mappso ung ua mo. pgka-ok na apply it sa direction nung hair mo. if pbaba cla, pababa dn ang application. if pataas (may hair kc ako sa ua na pataas ang tubo), ptaas dn ang pglagay. tpos after mga a few secs try to pull it. knti lng to chek if ok na xa. kc if mxdo p xa mlambot d sasama ung hair. if mtigas na xa mhhrapan k na mstanggal. at msu2gat k. dun cguro nkuha nung iba ung sugat. kc nangyari na sa kn un  sa bkini area. i left it too long na tumigas na d ko na xa maalis. sbrang naiiyak ako pg knihila ko na xa. when u pull the wax it's against nman. so if nlagay mo sa pbaba, u start with ung sa baba n pull it upwards. if pataas nman, u start from sa top and pull it downwards. when ur done, wash ur ua. don't use soap kc maiirritate ung skin mo. and don't use deo w/in 24 hrs kc prang masu2nog ung balat mo. iitim! pg may mga nkdikit p onting wax, d mo maiiwasan un, i use conditioner o kya dove soap (it's mild) to wash my ua pra mtanggal ung tira-tira.

di maiiwasan na may mtra maliliit na hair. kc u have to grow it in a minimum length pra kumapit sa wax. pag sbra liit sayang lng ang wax. if sbra haba, msasaktan k lng. so wat i do w/ those little hairs e pluck them. sasama cla agad. d k man masasaktan. kc prang nka-open p ung pores mo. dahil sa heat.

if ur really afraid to do it urself, pawax mo sa salon. kso mhal. u pay at least 200 for that. e ang epillin ung maliit is halos ganung price dn but u can use it several times. kc d k nman plagi mgwawax e. and knti lng ggmitin mo everytime u do it. pra lng yang shaving. pg first time nkktakot kc bka macut mo sarili mo. maeffort tlga ang magwax but it's worth it kesa magshave k plagi.

yup, possible nga na u dnt have to peel to get whiter ua. just use creams. kso if u hav chicken skin, u hav to. pra dn mtanggal ung dead skin cells which also causes darkening.

it's not just folds e. kc khit itaas ko xa mejo maitim p dn. actually uneven skintone. may parts na maputi meron mas darker. it's not black kc nkakita na ko ung black tlga ang ua.  as in black hndi lng bsta dark brown. ung sa kin hndi pantay2 ung color. i guess it's because of the chicken skin / dead skin cells. and because of my complexion na dn cguro. i'm in between morena and mputi. magulo no? d kc ako morena na ung filipina color tlga ung prang tanned. pro d dn ako mputi na prang mestiza. npgkamalan ako mnsan koreana so mlamang d ako ganun kamorena kc d b koreans are maputi? bsta mhrap idescribe.

thank you for this detailed information   I want to use this also for another area.  I had laser na kasi sa underarms.   Malaki ang takot ko sa wax talaga kaya I am also asking for advice regarding this matter.  How often mo hinahatak ang hair sa skin?  How many times ang masasabing mong enough na?   Pag sumobra kasi susugat na diba?

sungitqueen, for now, you can use whitening cream, and kojic soap (which is also for whitening).  This will somehow help you.  Mas maganda naman magwax compared to plucking.  At least you have to rest for like 2 weeks before you remove the hair again.  With shaving kasi you have to remove hair almost every day

in wat specific area mo xa gus2 gamitin? wat do u min hinahatak? kc pgka inapply mo na xa at pag pull mo mdami na hair na sasama. meron mttra sometines kc cguro maiksi or d xa 'kumapit' sa wax. ako hanggang 2 beses lng. kc pg sumobra masu2nog skin mo n masu2gat k nga. u hav to wait at least 24 hrs b4 u do it again.

kahit ako nung una takot dn. b4 i tried waxing my ua, ang wnawax ko lng is ung upper lip ko. hlata kc ung bigote ko e. e ngkaron ako ng bad reaction dun sa cream ng sally hansen so ngwa2x na lng ako. pnpthread ko dn dati kso pglabas mo read ung upperlip mo. mukha kang tanga. mtagl p man dn mgsubside ung redness. so nung nadisocer ko ung waxing un na lng gngwa ko. sarili ko sa bhay. sa face ko p una triny ha. d b mas nkktakot un. gusto ko nga pati ung hair ko sa noo iwax ko e. hehe

[sungitqueen]

if u really don't want to wax, u can try depilatory creams like veet and i believe sally hansen meron. pricey nga lng.

i used veet b4. effective p dati. mga nung 2004 p nun. as in seconds lng kita mo na hair mo prang nahu2log. all you have to do is wipe the cream off and wash. mlambot p ua mo after. gnamit ko un sa legs n sa bikini area as well. kso i found it pricey kya ngwax ako. mhal p nun un e. wlang small tube so ung mlaki bnbli ko. it was aroung 300-400 p dati. ngaun may small sze na tpos sale p. so i tried it again. kc maeffort mgwax e prho lng nmna result. nasayng lng pera ko. d ko man naubos ung small tube. kc it was not effective anymore. d ntatanggal ung hair khit iwan ko sya dun sa maximum minutes na pwede. i end up shaving p dn. so i went bck to waxing.

bka d na lng sya effective sa kn kc mtagal ko na xa gngamit. d b may products na gaun. ung pg sbrang hiyang k na prang wla ng effet. like medicines. kso may nbsa ako thread na mrami bad reviews about veet so am thinking bka d na xa tulad ng dati. kc mura na xa e. they myt hav change the formula hence the low price ka d na rn xa effective. prang ung beauty formula ata un, it's also a depilatory cream, mura pro d effective.

may nbsa p ko na nair is good dw. i haven't tried that kc wla k mkta d2. u myt want to try that instead.

may nbsa b ko sa entrepreneur ata un, ung magzaine, about a cold wax. kso sa davao lng available. same concept dn w/ epilin kso e2 u dnt have to heat it. so d k mppso. u just hae to use it w/ bondpaper ata. bsta it sims very gud but sadly sa davao xa available. it costs around 250 and mganda ung nkasulat about it. nkalimutan ko lng name. i'll check it again sa magazine.

sa let's face it..mga 220 ata bayad pero nung pumunta ako ng atc
sa bench fix nasa 130 lang ang wax sa ua..

[squirbz]

@ sungitqueen i tried  Epilin , my mom and me, first time 'cause before im shaving my UA. may mga dumugo pa nga pero konti lang parang dots lang. nainis nga ko kasi parang umitim UA ko tapos nung nabasa ko yung sinabi mo na di pala pwedeng maglagay ng deo sa UA w/in 24 hours, i guess yun yung reaso na nangitim kasi gabi nun nung nagwax kami and d morning after naglagay na ko ng deo. nalaman ko din na pag pababa yung paglagay mo ng wax, pataas yung paghila mo kaya pala may mga naiiwan pang hairs eh, pero nung pataas kong hinila may mga naiiwan nga talaga pero manipis lang at minsa binubunot ko nalang and like you im also planning to buy UA package of k8 jones but im torn between the whitening cream,licorce cream,deo sa UA package talaga.. kaya i think balik nalang ulit ako Epilin.
