Waxing in Rio de Janeiro

Waxing in Rio de Janeiro is for many girls here a weekly pain. Walking around on the beach in a bikini with hair sticking out is really a big no-no here.

How do they do it?
Ok, here comes a bunch of information from Silvia again. First letīs kill the myth; The so called Brazilian Wax is not to take off everything, traditionally you leave a triangle on top of it all, the size of the bikini you use decides how big. Which parts of the body the carioca girls wax vary but almost obligatory are: Bikini line, armpits and legs. Many do as well: Eyebrows, nostrils and upper lip. A new fashion is shaping, you can get your most precious parts decorated in shapes like hearts and stars!

Where to do it?
This is available in so many places and you donīt have to go to an expensive place to get a good wax. What youīll be offered in the local hairdressers is for sure good enough. The price level in these places are reasonable, armpits probably around 15R$ and the bikini line 30R$.
