Gwyneth
Paltrow wasn't referring to her Oscar when she exclaimed, "You've changed my life!"
This declaration of admiration was aimed at the esthetician who gave Gwynnie her
first Brazilian
bikini wax. The hallmark of a traditional Brazilian
bikini wax has not so much to do with the size of the "landing strip" left
in front as it does the complete hair removal of everything behind. Not for the
squeamish, a Brazilian
wax is usually done in the buff. Some spas and salons do offer a paper thong
to the modest (what the modest are doing getting a Brazilian is a mystery to us). While the procedure itself is hardly glamorous, the results
are well worth any initial self-consciousness you may feel about unveiling this
most private region. Despite what your mother may have told you, doctors say there
is no clinical need for the hair down there. Trust us, you'll barely miss it.
