Leg Waxing??? - Cruise Line Fans: Cruise Forum, Reviews and Chat From Real Cruisers

I've heard alot of people talking about getting their legs waxed before they cruise. The problem is that I've also heard that you have to let you hair grow out a certain length before it can be waxed.

I've never gotten my legs waxed and was thinking it would be nice to not have to shave during the cruise. On the other hand it's getting to be shorts weather and I don't want to be walking around with hairy legs until I can wax them.

Any Information you all could give me on leg waxing would be great. I'm kinda confused at this point.

Thanks in advance!!

My older daughter gets hers waxed. Yes, she does have to let it grow out prior to having it done.

The place she goes serves wine to help their patrons relax.

Anesthesia it helps with the pain.

Never had the inclination to have that done! Nair works just fine for me, thank you!

Sounds too painful to me.

Yes, you have to grow out the hair so the wax has something to stick to. I personally think that the worse part is after you have one 'side' done, you know the other side is coming! It is painful but it is temporary and then no shaving for weeks!

OUCH! Lars... you just made me cringe! I can't imagine how much that would hurt - it might work but man oh man it would be painful!
