My First Time Getting Waxed

On this episode of Firsts, six young adults share their reactions to getting waxed for the first time. There is nothing wrong with body hair (it’s actually incredible that your body makes hair to protect itself in specific ways). That being said, it’s totally your call on what you decide to do with it! If you like more of a hairless look but you hate shaving, waxing can be an option for you. But how can you decide to try waxing if you’ve never done it before (and you’ve heard it kind of hurts)? Well, four teens let us tag along during their first waxing experiences to show how it really goes down. They reveal answers to all kinds of burning questions. “Is the wax really hot?” “Are certain parts of the body more painful to wax than others?” And most importantly: “Does waxing hurt?!” This episode of Seventeen: Firsts will walk you through what it’s like to get your armpits, bikini area, legs, and eyebrows waxed.
