Vagina Facial, Or 'Vajacial,' Becomes Newest Beauty Trend

You can bedazzle your va-jay-jay, you can rejuvenate it with lasers and you can even dye it pink to remain youthful...but did you know that you can also treat your lady parts to a facial? We mean, a Vajacial.

San Francisco's Stript Wax Bar has introduced the vagina facial, meant to revitalize post-Brazilian-wax vadges. "We developed the Vajacial to really address and treat the key needs of anyone who gets waxed," Stript owner Katherine Goldman wrote in a press release. "Your 'little lady' will thank us!"

According to BellaSugar:

The 50-minute treatment ($60) involves four steps. First, skin is cleansed with an antibacterial body wash and witch hazel. Then, a papaya-based exfoliating gel goes on before the esthetician extracts ingrown hairs. After that, an anti-freckle, anti-acne, or calming mask is applied. It finishes off with an application of lightening cream.

So, has anyone taken up Stript on its Vajacial offer? It seems so. From a Yelp review:

Here's the scenario: DESPERATELY needed a fix for my poor vajay. It had been waxed by some random nail salon on polk street and suddenly it was filled with in-growns. It was growing these twisted weeds and was in all sorts of trouble.

The answer:
I saw the sign that said "Introducing the Vajacial". Funny but clever at the same time. It is EXACTLY what I needed. I needed a full extraction, scrub and toner. For around $60, Katherine took her time to work gently and made sure to keep everything very sanitary.

The space is wonderfully decorated and Katherine is a very clever and skilled business woman. I recommend stript to anyone who has had a brazilian nightmare. Go here, your hubby will be happy.

Facials aren't good for your skin, and they would not be good for down there. That's a delicate area. And how about modesty? There's a reason why they call them private parts.

Count me out on making a career move. I think it would put me off my feed as it were. I mean really, you would not be looking at the prime stuff, just the, ummm, stuff needing improvement and probably vast improvement at that.. I would never make a dive again. Oh no, I'm afraid of going to sleep tonight; the horror, the horror.

The photo for this piece- it may be the underwear design, but we have general agreement here that it looks like young men being photographed. Good laughs all around, given the topic. But really- those are male bodies in female clothes, I swear. If a business wants to build around a niche like women who get completely depilated (and all the subsequent risks) then go for it. Those who buy into such things have a life style (complete with yearnings for plastic surgery and anxiety about their sexuality?) would not participate in, but people have a right to their self expressions.

So many words and I still don't know what you said.

All I have to say is, to each his (or her) own but why the dudes?

Let me simplify: Photo here looks like guys. Funny. If people want to make money off of a "beauty" trend, good for them.

Reported irritation from excessive scrubbing make for a red herring.

If it makes the lady feel better, fine by me. Seems a bit wasteful, yet who doesn't waste some money time to time? Goes to show, if you open a new market, some people will buy the product.

So, they have no treatments other then the "anti-freckle, anti-acne" stuff?

How necessary are those two items?

Nothing wrong with it. If it makes the girl having it feel cleaner and fresher and sexier - then I say go for it. I for one do not like hair down there on myself or my lady. It just looks so much better and healthier than having all the nasty pubes down there.

Who wants to get hair that has all kinds of stuff on it on their tongue? I am assuming that most adults have oral sex. Yeah?

Apparently, you should spend the money you spent on a computer instead on Haiti... and your spare time you spend posting negative comments instead flying down there and helping out. If you don't want to have it done, DON'T.

[SaltyLassi]

06:46 PM on 02/14/2010

wtf? No one should post negative comments? Only happy comments no matter what the subject? Who are you - the dictator of this site? That Left thinks waxing your hoohoo is waste of time is such a severe, horrifying, unimaginably revolting comment that you must play the Haiti card and say that anyone who posts negative comments must instead donate their computer to haiti? Seriously, your retort is so dripping with negativity itself, that perhaps YOU should donate your computer to Haiti, and your negative attitude to the dumpster.

One nice thing about getting older is that the eyesight goes. My husband wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

The hair goes too.

That's Right!! Mine is nearly completely gone. When it first started to fall out, I used to tease my husband and tell him he wore it off.
