At a salon it doesn't hurt really at all as it's hot wax. The therapists have seen it all before so I wouldn't worry about stretch marks. I have some and I have my legs waxed properly and I've never even thought about them. The therapist usually makes you feel very relaxed and comfy and they are very discreet..they fold towels over you and stuff so theres no exposure thats unneccesery.

Hope this helps a bit :smile:

It doesn't hurt at all. Not to say you can't feel anything, but it certainly isn't particularly painful. People always make it out to be so much worse than it is.
And don't worry about stretch marks...there are more people than you can imagine who have them (me included) so it's nothing to be ashamed of

Good Luck with it!

Legs arent really painful, not in the horrid extreme pain kind of way, but other areas can be....
its worth it, because you start seeing thinness of hairs pretty quickly....
go for it, id say it hurts no more than having your eyebrows plucked. and you get a much better finish. and dont worry bout the stretch marks nearly everyones got em i no i have!! i bet the beauticians stretch marks are worse, there natural to your body so dont be ashamed bout em!!!! at least ur a real woman n not a lolly pop lady!!!
