It's Friday

And I'm nosy...

So here's the question: When was the last time you had a pedicure and have you ever had your upper lip waxed?

I had both done yesterday. I rewarded myself for having accomplishing alot around the house lately.

When I got home I started trimming the rose bushes out front. My husband came outside and I told him I had my lip waxed. He said "you don't have a moustache do you?"

I told him...not any more!

By the way, only one word describes getting your upper lip waxed...PAINFUL!

I haven't had a pedicure since last fall and it's time! I've never had a lip wax but it may be getting to be time for that too!

Haven't had a pedi in way too long...

I've been having my lip waxed since I was 15. (Nice Mediterranean background, thanks a lot genetics...) It does get easier in time, but it still isn't something I necessarily look forward to...

A tip - pull that upper lip taut over your teeth when they pull the wax (or whatever they're using) off rather than leaving your lip relaxed. You'll look like a goof, but it does hurt a little less.

Hi Linda ~ I'm definitely in need of a pedi..maybe it's time for Cassie to do one of them on me! I haven't gotten my lip waxed in a while...and I agree, it hurts!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Going for a pedicure tomorrow! Woo hoo! But it's been 3 weeks since my last one. I had my upper lip waxed one time but I probably should sometime soon. I can handle eyebrows but the lip HURTS!
Have a great weekend!

Janiece said...

Last spring was my last pedicure, and I was just thinking it was time for another one!

I have my eye brows done, but that is it for waxing...so far.

Have a fantastic weekend!

I have never had a pedi. I have the exact opposite of a foot fetish. I can't stand to have someone touch my feet.

I get my brows waxed, but I haven't ever had my lip done.

I'm not a waxer. Too painful. I'm a plucker

Unknown said...

I have a pedicure @ once a month or 5 weeks, I live in FL, we wear sandals year round.
I haven't had the need to wax my upper lip yet, but thanks for the warning, I've heard it's painful, but worth it.

Denise said...

I've never waxed my upper lip, and it has been so long since I've had a professional pedicure that I can't remember when it was! I do, however, polish my own toenails, as it just looks so much nicer than icky plain toenails. Having a real pedicure--heavenly!

Nadine said...

I've never had a pedicure. I've always wanted to. I have not had my upper lip waxed because as you said - painful!

Pancake said...

OK so what I wanna know is, how OFTEN do you have to keep up waxing the lip?????

Joyce said...

Never done the lip waxing thing but I do love a pedicure and have them about once a month in winter months and maybe every 3 weeks iin summer when my toes are in sandals.

Christine said...

I quite having pedicures because I can do a better job then they do, except for the massage part. I gave myself on two days ago. As far as waxing, I pluck when I see a black one.

valerie said...

I've never had a pedicure. I wish I could. My toenails are crazy and I'd be embarrassed. :) I've heard they're wonderful. I gave my mom and mother-in-law pedicures last year for mother's day and they LOVED it. Guess what they're getting this year???

I've never had my upper lip waxed. I probably need to, but haven't given in to it yet.

I get pedicures regularily in the spring and summer -not during the winter, no one sees my feet. I haven't had the upper lip wax, but I am really fair and not very hairy at all---none hardly even grows under my arms, how about that. I could tell you a funny story about my daughters BRAZILIAN wax though. (tee,hee)

dani said...

I have never had a lip wax but I have had a bikini wax, hahaha!

Kathi said...

I've never had a pedicure. It sounds so relaxing. Yes, I've done the waxing. People tend to get embarrassed about that, but I feel like it's just like eyebrows and leg hair. I'm glad to look and feel lady-like. Have a great evening. Kathi

I havent had a professional pedicure in several years, but I try to keep my feet nice with fresh polish, I hate my feet without polish, yuck! No waxing yet, but I am sure that is coming, lol. AS far as the GW, google your local gw and ours has a schedule of sale events. Worth a try! Good luck, and thanks for stopping by! Sue

CB said...

I have never had a pedicure - I am a weird person who does not like other people touching my feet! hee hee
I wax my own upper lip and I do it when my husband is out of town!!

Ahhhh the secrets of women :D

Karen said...

No need for the lip wax, but OMG it's time for a pedicure! What a treat. I do not do a good job when I do it myself. But . . . I just can't seem to find the time to pick up the phone and make an appt.
I think that goes back to the old story - mom is always last on her list. lol
HAGD!
