The beautician ( did not take her name) was in a hurry, which resulted in the worst waxing i've ever had. She missed some of the areas altogether at the same time went over and over some other areas so that the upper layer of the skin was taken off as well. Now I have red streaks on my legs, mostly on the inner thigh, where the skin is more tender. I am not sure how much time is will take to heal now. As for bikini- painful, the skin is sore and 90% of the hair was not removed. Sunbed was ok.
