I don\'t understand why normal people need a body waxing. Such vanity! But just the peasant in me speaking. :-)

预订一次“身体打蜡”服务。


Explanation:
就象给地板打蜡一样,有些西方人喜欢在皮肤上涂上一层蜡,使皮肤成为棕ke色,认为那样很美。为适用这种需求,也就产生了专门提供“身体打蜡”的服务行业。

agree  chica nueva: European women shave their legs and underarms. Waxing your legs was another method. Now you can get a body wax, on the midriff (bikini line), and underarms and groin area I suppose, to look good on the beach.Euro men are starting to wax chests,backs!
