OUCH!
Spring is in the air...no more hair! Buds on the trees, no more snow. Spring is in the air. Time to start starving myself, depriving myself of those extra grease-filled calories so that I am brave enough to put on a swimsuit in public..2 months and counting! But that's not all. This is also the time of the year when I start slinking past the estheticians checking out the waxing prices...OUCH! Being quite " fair" this was one of life's tortures I managed to get away from for a very long time. But now at 40-something,there's no running, just screaming!! The french are obsessed with waxing. If its got hair, wax it! I remember, with horror, the first trip to the local salon d'epilation.. I was there for a mere eye-brow tweak. A woman, who resembled the Brunhilda of my nightmares came out every 5 minutes to call up the next victim, a bit like a school dental nurse.. Mme Dupont, half leg wax...Mme Faure, full leg please....Mme Gigot, eyebrows, up...
