Ha, this thread!
I've been suffering for the last 3 days with a muthafucking rash on my shoulders (I explain); At my mate's house the other day, we decided to go to the LF Lido, his missus goes on to the toilet to do her biz (wax), comes back and starts going like: 'you should let me take those 2 little patches on your shoulders...etc' - I am a very civilized chimp when it comes to body hair, all normal, no excess, except for 2 little patches I've always had right on the top of my shoulders, so... metrosexuality only so far - I replied, 'fuck it, why not, I really want wear my fishnet wifebeater anyway..'. So far so good, I was warned though that if it was my 1st time trying wax, and on my back, it could leave me with tiny spots/rash like marks for a day or 2, even so I went on. The pain was bearable, very precise and fast, but right after she finished I felt like this immense burning sensation that has been with me ever since. Loads of cream now, no fucking sun on my shoulders, no wifebeater, not for me then.
^^It's all good advice up there, exfoliate, moisturize, scrub, lick, spit, just don't leave it unattended.
