yeah I've tried shaving before... and got major irritation from regrowth the next day... so I didn't try after that. Then I went and got waxed XD it was AWESOME! The first time you do it, it'll be pretty sensitive to the touch after... you have to be careful not to rub the skin to hard and dab at it when you wipe after using the toilet but it went away after a couple days. When I went to do it again the next month or so, it was less sensitive after. So, just to throw this out there, waxing is TOTALLY WORTH IT!

Don't worry too much about the pain hehe. the actual lips don't hurt as much as you think and it's actually when they try to shape the top part into a triangle or a square that's painful (and you can ask them not to do that part). I was also worried I might embarrass myself because pain gets me off but I didn't make mess and all my experiences with salons are very professional about it.

Wanted to let all of you who have problems shaving know more about this method ^_^
