It is always interesting to see what happens when I meet new people and tell them what I do for a living. When I tell someone that my husband and I own a salon, the person will always assume I cut hair. When I tell people that I do Brazilians for a living, it tends to cause some brow raising. A man recently was intrigued that I give women what he referred to as the “Kojak” all day long. I thought the analogy was perfect, provided you are old enough to remember who Telly Savalas was.
Hose Down Your Hoo-Ha
Thoughts, stories, and insights from M.E. Nesser
There are a few reasons we have decided not to wax men in their private area at Mark & M.E. One of the main reasons is that we have had one too many guys call the salon and even come into the salon who were just plain creepy. But when a man sent me an email looking for a “Brozilian” I almost had to say yes because I thought that term was clever.
It is incredible how your body changes when you are pregnant. Sexually, you feel like a 16 year old boy who can just not get enough. Things happen in your sleep without any effort at all. I think it’s God’s way of distracting our men from realizing how fat and miserable we can be. So when a pregnant woman told me it felt good when I spread the wax on her junk, I understood. Although that was not the first time someone told me it felt good when I was doing my thing down there, I definitely make all the good feelings disappear with one good rip.
I have a girl that normally squirms and screams during a wax. OK, maybe I have more than one girl. Anyways, the Brazilian service is always an adventure with her. When she came in the last time, she told me she had a glass of wine before she came in. Although I don’t encourage alcohol consumption prior to a wax, she seemed much calmer than usual. As she was getting on the table, her phone rang. I told her to take the call. I have had plenty of women conduct phone business while I rip them. She talked to a friend on the phone during the entire service and was very composed while I did my thing. She decided that, from now on, wine and phone were the two key prerequisites to enduring the wax.
Although I have become known for my Brazilian prowess, I also do excellent eyebrows. I actually have been waxing brows a lot longer than the beave. Now that I am in my mid 40’s, however, it is necessary that I wear reading glasses in order to perfectly sculpt your brows. Recently one of my clients asked me if she should worry that I come at her crotch with my scary needle nose tweezers in order to remove her stubborn ingrowns without my glasses on since I do put them on in order to wax her brows? I don’t seem to have a problem removing the ingrown hairs and, frankly, I really don’t want to be able to see your crotch that clearly.
