Vajazzling. I like the sound of the word, but I don't think I'll ever get it done.
A few years ago, Sarah Jessica Parker popularized the Brazilian wax in the “Sex and the City” episode when Carrie got it all taken off “down there”. I don’t have the exact numbers in front of me, but since then, Brazilian waxes and hair-less nether regions have been all the rage for women across the states.
Jennifer Love Hewitt recently decided not only to include an entire chapter in her new book on the joys of Vajazzling, she announced how she felt about it on Lopez Tonight.
I’ll explain a little about the process of Vajazzling. First, every bit of hair gets removed through a Brazilian wax. Here’s the next step as described by Bryce, who was brave and/or exhibitionist enough to get Vajazzled with a camera crew present:
“Then came little sheets of real Swarovski crystals that she heated in the palms of her hands for a few seconds before applying to my freshly waxed skin. The bottom of each sheet of crystals has a strong adhesive material that’s completely invisible to the naked eye. Larger areas of crystals are applied directly from a sheet, while more design-specific crystals are painstakingly applied by a tweezer on an individual basis.”
I have no information about the crystals are removed or how intimate you would have to become with a person in order to have them personally place individual crystals with tweezers on your "Lady Bits" or what the exact allure of having a disco ball/vagina actually is.
Jennifer Love Hewitt is not the only celebrity to be Vajazzled. Kathy Griffin, who is Vajazzled, and is constantly on the look-out for attention, is planning to show her lady bits to the world tomorrow as she gets a pap smear by the pool-side. Her reported purpose for the pap smear is to raise awareness for women’s health issues, but I am thinking that Kathy is just angling for the opportunity to debut her Vajazzled pubic region to the masses. I dont’ know about you, but I can hardly wait.
Reactions to Vajazzling itself are mixed on the net- not everyone seems as excited to test it out as Jennifer Love Hewitt. This woman is not a fan; she compares the difference between having her labia pierced to Vajazzling as the difference between decorating and remodeling.
Not every woman wants a “disco ball” down there; another blogger has given the matter some deep thought and came up with a few reservations including, “Coworker bathroom awkwardness.” Other concerns include lost crystals in the bed and the problem of in-grown hairs.
I guess we’ll all have to wait for Bryce’s next report before we understand the complexities and inherent dangers of Vajazzling.
