Happy November! Seriously, though, what happened to October? It’s all been a gigantic blur of red, gold, and green culminating into one very large pile of assorted candies. Should I chunk it all in the garbage? Nah, I just don’t have the heart. Besides, a Reese’s cup goes nicely with my morning coffee… But here [...]
Happy Halloween!! Is that a waxing moon I see?
October 31, 2012 By
Wishing you all a great night of treats and trickery! Remember to watch out for all the scary kitties on the streets of Raleigh tonight! Clearly they didn’t get to the wax shop on time
Live longer with laugh lines!

Happy Fall everyone! Or Autumn if you prefer. I just love this time of year. Hearty logs stacked for cozy fireplaces. Pumpkins and gourds placed lovingly on the steps. Multicolored leaves swaying from the branches until the first winds of winter gently pull them to the ground. Oh, and candles, lots and lots of candles [...]

So you’ve just finished this great workout, you’re feeling good, not looking too shabby either, and you’re strutting out of the gym a la Tony Manero of Saturday Night Fever, all ‘rockin’ and rollin’ and what-not’. But then you make the fatal mistake of looking in the rearview mirror at just the wrong time, you [...]

Pregnancy Waxing
July 27, 2012 By
What? You’re joking, right? Pregnant women get waxed? As if carrying around a pumpkin sized jumping bean, peeing every five minutes, and frequent flatulence isn’t torture enough, you want to add ripping hair out of my vagina to the mix? Well, like frequent flatulence, waxing during pregnancy is rarely, if ever, talked about. SOO unladylike, [...]
Waxed for her pleasure or for his?
July 12, 2012 By
So let’s be blunt: yes, there is definitely a certain aesthetic appeal to a nicely manicured, if not completely mowed lawn. A trimming of the hedges. A little bush-whacking. Ok, ok enough of the euphemisms – you all know what I am talking about – yes, that’s right, the bikini wax! All types, from modest [...]
Just look at those brows…
June 18, 2012 By
Maybe it’s just me, but when I look at a face sometimes all I see is brow. Unless you are Brooke Shields, Frieda Kahlo, Audrey Hepburn, or any one of the more contemporary stars today who like to be identified by their fuzzy face-caterpillars, a big, bushy eyebrow may not be for you. I know [...]
Shaving: The Painful Truth
June 5, 2012 By
Ok, you’re in your bikini, shorts, skirt, whatever, and you’re ready to strut your stuff, because you KNOW you look good. You sit down in a pose which is sure to attract a number of fine folks and you look down at your legs for one final check and aack!! what are those red bumps?? [...]
