Some of the onboard spas require you to wear a paper panty during a massage! IME, I have never seen an onboard spa offer this service on any line.

VABeach Posted January 13, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 13, 2006 You could always do it yourself with a home kit, or just shave. Hope it works out for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dphipps2 Posted March 27, 2006 #9 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I saw this on another thread and thought it was funny so here you go.... My night began as any other normal weeknight. Come home, fix dinner, play with the kids. I then had the thought that would ring painfully in my mind for the next few hours: "Maybe I should pull the waxing kit out of the medicine cabinet." So I headed to the site of my demise: the bathroom. It was one of those "cold wax" kits. No melting a clump of hot wax, you just rub the strips together in your hand, they get warm and you peel them apart and press them to your leg (or wherever else) and you pull the hair right off. No muss, no fuss. How hard can it be? I mean, I'm not a genius, but I am mechanically inclined enough to figure this out. (YA THINK!?!) So I pull one of the thin strips out. Its two strips facing each other stuck together. Instead of rubbing them together, my genius kicks in so I get out the hair dryer and heat it to 1000 degrees. "(Cold wax,"yeah...right!) I lay the strip across my thigh. Hold the skin around it tight and pull. It works! OK, so it wasn't the best feeling, but it wasn't too bad. I can do this! Hair removal no longer eludes me! I am She-rah, fighter of all wayward body hair and maker of smooth skin extraordinaire. With my next wax strip I move north. After checking on the kids, I sneak back into the bathroom, for the ultimate hair fighting championship. I drop my panties and place one foot on the toilet. Using the same procedure, I apply the was strip across the right side of my bikini line, covering the right half of my who-ha and stretching down to the inside of my butt cheek (Yes, it was a long strip) I inhale deeply and brace myself....RRRRIIIPPP!!!! I'm blind!!! Blinded from pain!!!!....OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!! Vision returning, I notice that I've only managed to pull off half the strip. CRAP!!! Another deep breath and RRIIPP!! Everything is swirly and spotted. I think I may pass out...must stay conscious...Do I hear crashing drums??? Breathe, breathe...OK, back to normal. I want to see my trophy - a wax covered strip, the one that has caused me so much pain, with my hairy pelt sticking to it. I want to revel in the glory that is my triumph over body hair. I hold up the strip -There's no hair on it. Where is the hair??? WHERE IS THE WAX??? Slowly I ease my head down, foot still perched on the toilet. I see the hair. The hair that should be on the strip. I touch. I am touching wax. CRAP! I run my fingers over the most sensitive part of my body, which is now covered in cold wax and matted hair. Then I make the next BIG mistake...remember my foot is still propped up on the toilet? I know I need to do something. So I put my foot down. CRAP!!!!!!!! I hear the slamming of a cell door. Who-ha? Sealed shut! Butt?? Sealed shut! I penguin walk around the bathroom trying to figure out what to do and think to myself "Please don't let me g et the urge to poop". My head may pop off!" What can I do to melt the wax? Hot water!! Hot water melts wax!! I'll run the hottest water I can stand into the bathtub, get in, immerse the wax-covered bits and the wax should melt and I can gently wipe it off, right??? *WRONG!!!!!!!* I get in the tub - the water is slightly hotter than that used to torture prisoners of war or sterilize surgical equipment - I sit. Now, the only thing worse than having your nether regions glued together, is having them glued together and then glued to the bottom of the tub...in scalding hot water. Which, by the way, doesn't melt cold wax. So, now I'm stuck to the bottom of the tub as though I had cement-epoxied myself to the porcelain!! God bless the man who had convinced me a few months ago to have a phone putin the bathroom!!!!! I call my friend, thinking surely she has waxed before and has some secret of how to get me undone. It's a very good conversation starter "So, my butt and who-ha are glued together to the bottom of the tub!" There is a slight pause. She doesn't know any secret tricks for removal but she does try to hide her laughter from me. She wants to know exactly where the wax is located, "Are we talking cheeks or hole or who-ha?" She's laughing out loud by now...I can hear her. I give her the rundown and she suggests I call the number on the side of the box. YEAH!!!!! Right!! I should be the joke of someone else's night. While we go through various solutions. I resort to scraping the wax off with arazor. Nothing feels better then to have your girlie goodies covered in hot wax, glued shut, stuck to the tub in super hot water and then dry-shaving the sticky wax off!! By now the brain is not working, dignity has taken a major hike and I'm pretty sure I'm going to need Post-Traumatic Stress counseling for this event. My friend is still talking with me when I finally see my saving grace....the lotion they give you to remove the excess wax. What do I really have to lose at this point? I rub some on and OH MY WORD!!!!!!! The scream probably woke the kids and scared the dickens out of my friend. It's sooo painful, l but I really don't care. "IT WORKS!! It works!!" I get a hearty congratulation from my friend and she hangs up. I successfully remove the remainder of the wax and then notice to my grief and despair....THE HAIR IS STILL THERE.......ALL OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. So I recklessly shave it off. Heck, I'm numb by now. Nothing hurts. I could have amputated my own leg at this point. Next week I'm going to try hair color...... __________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gxchan Posted March 27, 2006 #15 Share Posted March 27, 2006 Dena, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I laughed so hard tears came to my eyes and I slapped my hand on the desk; needless to say, I'm getting some very strange looks from co-workers.

kakalina Posted March 27, 2006 #17 Share Posted March 27, 2006 My DH thinks I am insane sitting in here and LMAO all by myself with tears running down my face, I almost get it together, read a little further and giant whoops of uncontrollable laughter burst forth. DH is in the doorway now asking if I'm alright. I think I'll go kiss my bottle of Nair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoes4445 Posted March 27, 2006 #18 Share Posted March 27, 2006 I sent it to my hubby, and he called after he read it (laughing). He thought it was hysterical...gross...but hysterical. Sorry I can't be of any help to the OP...there's no way on God's green earth that I go through that...childbirth seems easier, and probably is. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDHALFAN Posted March 28, 2006 #21 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I'm sitting here, with tears of laughter pouring down my face, but I am actually feeling the pain (I must be some kind of an empath). Thanks so much for the post, and while we are on the subject of a woman's pain - has anyone read the treatise on how to prepare for a Mammogram? That one is hilarious also. Oh the agonies we women suffer just to prove that we are the "weaker sex" - Oh Yeah, says who? Valerie:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerie:D I read a post where someone described exactly what went on during her Brazilian wax...I was laughing and cringing at the same time. I about lost it when she talked about her leg being shoved over her shoulder! Good grief, there's no way my leg would do that...and then return to its normal position. Hubby and I were still laughing over this post (the earlier one) during dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just glad I read the Boards at home and not at work, as I would not like to confess what I was laughing about to my two (male) co-workers! Still wiping tears away. . .
