Brazilian on the brain?   When I tried to promote my favorite Japanese restaurant in Rochester on facebook, I typed in that it's on Hylan Drive next to Wegmans. My computer autocorrected it to say that it was on hymen drive next to the wetlands. How does my computer know????

It's funny what a significant role music has during a Brazilian Wax. As the Stylistics were playing "You Make Me Feel Brand New" my client and I were singing and, all of a sudden, she said "This is exactly how I feel now!"

A man told her woman that she didn't need a Brazilian Wax because he liked her 70's bush. She told him that the 70's was 40 years ago and no one wants a bush that is 40 years old. Believe me, we said "peace out" to her bush.

Depending on the size or shape of a person's body, sometimes it's difficult to access all the parts when you are giving a Brazilian Wax. When I was explaining to a client how difficult it was to wax a woman earlier that day, she told me that she was confident that I was able to "MacGyver her ass." Yea, I was.

A man came in for a Brazilian. He was new. I asked him what prompted him to try it. He said it was one of the things he wanted to do before his 30th birthday. Since he was 29 years old, there wasn't much time left.

I was in the middle of giving a woman a Brazilian who hadn't had a wax for several months. Bob Dylan was playing the background. As I went to remove a large strip with an abundance of hair on it, I heard Dylan sing "how does it feel?"  It was the perfect moment for that phrase to come on and I couldn't help myself from singing along. Although it probably didn't feel great, my client laughed a lot. We love to make waxing fun at Mark and M.E.!

A woman knew it was time for a Brazilian with M.E. when she realized she was thinking about different styles she could do with her pubic hair. She considered slicking it back and even parting it. Now she's bald.

I thought this was an interesting pic of Sophia Loren. I'm happy that I didn't come across this trend the past two days on our little getaway. Hard for a woman who waxes for a living to look at hairy armpits without making some kind of face.

I'm still perplexed by the woman who had a Yoni egg inserted in her body while she got a
Brazilian Wax. My question is this...what do you do when you're walking down the isle at Wegman's and your egg falls out? Chase it down the isle, put it in your purse and pray no one notices????  Inquiry minds want to know.

Yoni eggs (or jade eggs) are semiprecious stones worn inside the vagina. They've been used in China for over 5,000 years. They are believed to help access sexual power, awaken sensuality and help maintain amazing health. I am a huge fan of anything that can empower a woman, except when she is freaking out during her Brazilian Wax that her egg was going to fall out on my table!

A Brazilian Wax
Takes it all
Front, back
In every hall.
Don't be nervous
It's not that bad
Once you're done
You'll be so glad!

A woman got onto my waxing table with a beautiful fan, because she always sweats a lot when I wax her and she is convinced the fan helps. The fan was ornate and reminded me of a Victorian lady lounging in a seductive pose on a bed. The image was shot once the swearing began.

Botched continues....Since there was so much hair left behind on the client from yesterday's story, she asked me to save the strips so she could take pictures of them. We placed the 2 labia and 3 rectal strips in a design on my table when I was done. We both took pics of our artistic, yet overly hairy display. It was funny but not so funny all at the same time.

A girl called Mark and M.E. in pure desperation today. She said she had a botched Brazilian wax and she needed M.E. to fix her. Apparently, her 30 plus minute wax at a different salon left her with broken hairs, a ton of extra hairs on her labia and rectal area and a boat-full of extra wax left behind. I'm happy she thought to come to me, because I was easily able to finish the job, but I'm disappointed the technician charged her full price for such a lousy service. 

A Brazilian Wax does not have to be totally bare. Some people like to leave a little bit up front. When one of my employees asked her client if she wanted a landing strip or a triangle, she said that her man requested a dinner roll.

When I asked the "brave" guy from yesterday's post how he heard of me, he said he saw a recommendation about me on Facebook. When he looked me up, he couldn't believe it. Apparently, a few years ago, he was at a friend's house and noticed a strange yellow book on the coffee table. He picked it up, turned to a random page and started to laugh. It was The Happy Hoo-Ha by M.E. Nesser. Yep, that was m.e.!!!

When a new male Brazilian client got on my waxing table, he repeated the phrase "I'm gonna be brave." In between his mantra, however, he repeatedly said, "This f'ing hurts!" All in all, he did a great job.

Don't let your furry Friday ruin your frisky weekend! Come see the wax specialists at Mark & M.E. 585-473-7360 or Wax It All 585-348-9355 today 10-6 and tomorrow 8-3.

When you get a Brazilian in Suite One at Mark and M.E., this is the sign you see when you roll away from us to get between the cheeks waxed. At this point in the service, there a two reasons to keep smiling. 1) That area doesn't hurt to wax. 2) You're just about done!!!!  Keep Smiling everyone!!

When I started in the business, I only did nails. My niece came across this bottle opener from back in the day. "Your nails are jewels...not tools!" Now I do Brazilians for a living and I am looking for suggestions for what my new openers should say?

A friend brought over a bottle of wine a few months ago and I put it in this cool gecko wine holder on my kitchen counter. I never looked closely to the bottle until yesterday. It's a porcupine wine, which cracks me up since I was once called a great porcupine slayer after I gave a girl with thick, coarse hair a Brazilian!

My personal phone was buzzing constantly during a busy day last week, but I couldn't answer it because I was elbow deep in my work. (literally at times)  I guess I could have put it on speaker phone and said, "Hello from vagina land!"

A woman told me she was going on vacation with her man because her kids went to camp for a week. When I asked her where they went, she said Beaver Camp. Of course, I burst into a fit of laughter. They weren't the only one's at Beaver Camp.

A woman told me I should sell stress balls for when a client gets a Brazilian Wax. I think these are perfect. Leave a little hair on top and remove everything down below!

After being closed for a few days, both Mark and M.E. Salons had more messages on our answering machine than ever!  But don't worry, we are back to work so you can give us a call!  Mark and M.E. 585-473-7360   Wax It All 585-348-9355 Hello summer!!!!!

Hope all of you enjoyed your 4th of July with your friends, family, loved ones, and of course, your four legged friends!  Mark & M.E. and Wax It All reopen tomorrow and we look forward to hearing how you spent your Independence Day!

Watching Steel Magnolias and realized that the crew at Mark and M.E. could make a movie like that. I have 2 questions to run by you, however? Which character would Mark portray and what rating would we give it? Brazilian banter does not fall in a PG-13 category!

One of our most popular services for men at Mark and M.E. is called a Between The Cheeks wax. It's quick, easy, relatively painless and affordable. There are times, however, when a man is so hairy that when the service is complete, I'm reminded of a racing stripe on a car.

The woman who told me she was bringing me Bob Ross said she wanted to leave as Mr. Clean. That's exactly what I did! Brazilians are so much fun!!!!
