My legs look like little forests. Okay, not nearly that bad – but geez! I haven’t shaved my legs for a week (a week tomorrow) and tonight I whipped out the ruler to measure. The brochure I got from the spa says your hair should be grown out 1/4 of an inch – which is just SO long! In the past week my hair has grown to 1/8 of an inch. Which seems so little once it is actually measured! (And really, measuring your leg hair? Too funny!)

I was planning on getting my legs waxed next week sometime and I don’t think I need to call to far in advance for an appointment. One problem is going to be the kids – I doubt they can come with me but my sort of regular sitter lives about a half hour away while the spa is 10 minutes away. Maybe I’ll ask my neighbor, one of her kids will be away at camp.

I’m nervous though! I’ve read up a bit and most people are saying their hair doesn’t grow back for up to a month – but do I want to pay every month or two to get my legs waxed? As the baby gets bigger, yeah I’m sure I will love not having to shave. Especially since it is still hot here for a few more months, at least.  And of course nervous because of the pain. I’ve only ever waxed my eyebrows a handful of time and not for a few years so this is definitely a change!

Any tips? Anyone waxed their legs and loved it? Didn’t like it? Go regularly? Went once and stayed away?

I’m off to check what pain meds I can take before hand – my memory with this baby is so bad! I can’t remember what I’m allowed to take.
