Professional Brazilian waxer reveals the worst thing she’s ever seen

A professional Brazilian waxer has revealed the worst thing she's ever seen during her career - and it'll probably surprise you.

Just when we thought we'd been left traumatised by some of our waxing experiences, it turns out waxers themselves have a few horrifying tales to tell.

In case you're unsure, a Brazilian wax refers to a treatment which removes all but a tiny strip, or triangle, of pubic hair.

Meanwhile, a Hollywood wax removes *everything* and a bikini was simply removes hair from the bikini line region, often including the upper thighs, too.

Now, one professional waxer has taken to Reddit to answer some of the most common questions about her job.

People have been asking all sorts of questions, including what type of wax is the least painful and how long the discomfort lasts.

Others wanted to know about the beautician's own experiences, with one asking about the 'worst thing she'd ever seen'.

One Redditor asked: "Best and worst thing you've seen?"

To which the waxer explained: "Best - is definitely transforming eyebrows into masterpieces.

"The worst - I had a lady come in who had genital herpes and wanted a full Brazilian wax."

The waxer admitted that she ended up having to decline the client and ask her to leave, which sounds totally fair enough.

Another beautician took to Reddit to detail their experience of waxing - and prepare to be horrified.

One person asked: "Beauticians of Reddit: Do you hate doing Brazilian waxes?"

They continued: "I always feel paranoid before I get a Brazilian, as my friends daughter is a beautician and says how gross some people are. She apparently found dried up semen in a woman's vagina and poop stains.

"I make sure to have a shower beforehand and freshen myself up with baby wipes. What would you like clients to do beforehand?"

One beautician responded: "I like clients to show up on time, trim if necessary (we need hair the size of a grain of rice, any shorter and it won't pull well and if it's too long it increases chances of bruising and it'll hurt more), please use the wipes front and back."

Meanwhile, another admitted: "I see a lotta poop, I'm not gonna lie. I'm pretty indifferent to [doing] Brazilian waxes unless they're obviously not trying to be anything close to politely clean or they're rude towards me.

"Also if you're asked to hold something, please don't stop part way through unless you are certain they're done. I've had a few buttcheeks stick together."

Sorry if you're feeling queasy.
