Fugly or FURgly? It is no secret that Strip: Ministry of Waxing is against fur - be it on our bare skin, bags, coats or shoes.

So it's only natural for Strip to team up with international animal group, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) for the UNFURGIVABLE campaign in the battle against Fur.



Strip has provide me with a complimentary Brazilian Wax to help them promote their Anti-Fur movement.
Thank you so much Strip and PETA!!!

I have been wanting to try Brazilian waxing for ages but didn't go because I have nearly zero tolerance for pain and I am shy.
Hahahaha.
So thanks to Strip and PETA for giving me this chance to try out Brazilian Waxing.
When I received the email to go for Brazilian Waxing, I hesitated on whether to give it a try.
There is always a first and if you don't give it a try, how would you know whether it's painful a not.
So there I go for the appointment on 17 Oct at Mandarin Gallery outlet of Strip.

When I arrived, I was greeted by a very friendly counter staff to file up some forms.
Then she introduce me to another friendly colleague of hers to explain to me the things I should know before i go for my Brazilian Waxing.
Strip's Mantra is Hygiene, Speed and Quality.
Hygiene - The tools they use are all brand new for their customers instead of wash and reuse again. *thumbs up*
Speed - From muff to buff in 30 mins flat!! *another thumbs up because the longer the session the longer you have to tolerate the pain right?*
Quality - They produce the best results, whenever results you want. *thumbssssss upppppp!!! It's not call Ministry of Waxing for nothing!*
The girl who was explaining me also introduce this remedy for me to put under my tongue so to calm myself down before the Brazilian Waxing.
So cool!!!
And this cute little thing for you to squeeze when you are in pain.
Then I was introduced to my therapist who will be doing the session for me.
My therapist knew that I am first time doing it so she talks to me a lot during the session so to make me calm and comfortable!!
I have to thank her for that because it's rather shy to let other people see your "that area" right.
They have two flavors for the waxing - strawberry and chocolate.
My therapist let me try both.
So nice of her!!!

So it started...
Starting was okay...
When she is about to pull the wax she will inform me.
If there is a certain area that is pain, she will tell me and let me prepare myself.
"It's gonna be pain, breathe in", she tells me.
*Me squeezing the cute monkey and take deep breathe*

Finally 30 mins of the session is over.
I have stated that I have nearly zero tolerance for pain.
My reaction when the session is over " OMGGGGGGGGG!!! PAIN!!!!! yes its bearable but still PAINNNNNNNNNNNN!*no energy*"
Hahahahahaha!!
The Strip staff when she was going through with me, she did mention that there is one area whereby it will be very pain!!
I am grateful that at least they inform you and let you be mentally prepared.
That area is ULTIMATE!
LOL!


You have heard people saying it's pain, it's really pain.
It's something that can't be avoid but it's bearable!!
Really!!
It's painful for me at the ultimate area but it's really bearable for someone like me who has nearly zero tolerance for pain.
I am satisfy with the results and the therapist who does it for me.
A good therapist really helps a lot and STRIP has them!!
They make the session comfortable and bearable for you.
With this first step of trying the Brazilian Waxing, I can now consider continuing with my Brazilian Waxing in future.
On top of that, get a strip down and you will have a pair of havaianas!
Purple and Red havaians for you to choose.
I got the red one! Thank you strip and PETA!
