BEAUTY BUZZ- brazilian wax talk with SHOBHA

Beauty comes with a prize, actually a lot of pain when it comes to hair removal. Gone are the days when hair removal was a taboo, specially vaginal hair removal. Women are now more vocal about their vaginal hair-removal needs and it has become more of a necessity than a beauty-luxury. It is so amazing how far we have come along in the field of body hair removal. Women now not only target the face but keeping their bodies hair-free, inside out, has become of utmost importance to them.

I had an awe-inspiring opportunity to meet a NYC based woman entrepreneur Shobha, who recently opened her sixth hair removal salon in my neighborhood. We were treated to a choice of either a brazilian wax or an eyebrows wax, and I chose the former. I am really thankful to Shobha and her amazing staff for making this post possible. Without their help and input this post wouldn’t have been possible. So today I am going to aquaint you with some inside scoop about the much hush-hushed topic : brazilian wax (BW ). The do’s and dont’s for before and after a BW will follow. But first let’s learn a little about the mastermind behind this.

 A LITTLE ABOUT SHOBHA (in the center )  : US born, partly raised in India, Shobha spent her childhood years in India. Growing up she would get her eyebrows threaded, which was predominantly the only way to remove facial hair back then. After returning to US, she had a hard time pursuing the threading ritual, as there weren’t many threading specialists in her area. So with the strong motivation of helping others with similar circumstances, she started her journey as a threading specialists. Gradually from there, her fondness for hair-removal became intense and hence SHOBHA was born. You could read more about Shobha and her SHOBHA here.
