The New Full-Frontal: Has Pubic Hair in America Gone Extinct?
By Ashley Fetters

Carrie Bradshaw, Hugh Hefner, and Barbie have all helped construct a new generation's ideal woman, who is athletic, alluring, ... and waxed.



Meet Sophia Pinto: the 21st century's standard-issue, all-American perfect 10.

The 5-foot-5 Minnesota native -- a sly, funny, 22-year-old natural blonde who spends every summer bikini-clad on the shores of Lake Minnetonka -- works out five days a week. Her slim waist and megawatt smile hearken back to the polyvinyl glamour of the original Barbie doll.

In fact, if Mattel were to redesign Barbie based on the new millennium's ideal woman, she would likely resemble Pinto. Healthy, athletic, alluring, and smart (Pinto will graduate early this month from Northwestern University), she's both a role model and a sex symbol.

And if you were to undress Pinto, you'd find she embodies yet another trademark characteristic of the plastic glamour girl-turned-careerwoman: Like Barbie, Pinto has no pubic hair.

Every four to five weeks, the East Asian Studies major undergoes a cosmetic procedure known as a Brazilian wax. An esthetician pours wax heated to 140° F (roughly the temperature of a steak fresh off the grill) onto her labia and spreads it like butter on bread. Half a minute later, she swiftly peels away the hardened wax -- and with it, a full crop of pubic hair, freshly ripped from the follicles.

If you're squeamishly wondering how much the college senior gets paid for submitting to these weird acts of perverse, pornographic violence, brace yourself for the truly agonizing part: It's actually Pinto who shells out the cash, paying her regular waxer, Anna, more than $65 every time. But it beats the ingrown hairs and razor bumps that come from shaving, she says.

only the brave and a large dose of paracetomol there are a million things i wanna say about this but the words sound so so so wrong mybe this is a good one for you tube lol lol lol lol

Wow ... no public pubic hair?

I just ordered one of those wax things 2 days ago. Ordered mine for my hands that have bad carpal tunnel.This is from carrying heavy equipment, and playing long long sets without a break.

They do have medium sized ones - which I bought. I thought I would have an easier time covering my wrists too.

Yeah... we believe you, Joni... for your "hands"

o/t
(Might be an asset for a werewolf over at the werewolf game... I'll have to watch out for players ordering pads for hand and face waxing)

Oh ha ha ha ha ha ha! Silly boy.

No longer do I wear bikin's. Did for years. Worked out an hour a day long before anyone else did!!
Friend went to modeling school then, and she started to work out and showed me.

im not sure i understand what ur buying lol lol lol a wax kit for ur hands ? did i miss something lol lol lol

Hi Starryeyes How are you??

Yes, I bought a wax "heater" unit - and some aroma therapy wax. Home Wax Spas I think they sometimes call them?
I really do have bad carpal tunnel in my hands and read hot wax treatments are good for arthritis in hands too. Not sure about that with me. Some people do it in the morning, to get their hands loosened up - to get started.

I have been reading too that my unit is great for feet... soothing and makes feet very very smooth.
To silly me ... wax is wax.

Just my little added "input" about "wax" I guess. I can't wait to get it!! Hands ruined from carrying heavy music equipment when I couldn't get a Bus Boy to help me, (place too busy!), and working long, long sets without a break.

Starryeyes ... here for you.
A video of a unit similar to the one I ordered. Mine is larger. But found this video that shows what they are ... and what they do.
