My last appointment at the salon was in fairly quick succession to the last, and at it, it would be the first time that I would end up being almost fully body waxed.
Such is the nature of hair growth patterns across my body, I do frequently seem to be in a constant state of 'work in progress' much to my ongoing frustration.
However, I am increasingly less and less hirsute as repeated waxing continues -- slowly and surely -- to kill growth off, hair getting weaker, thinner and easier to pull out, so arguably less painful too.
As ever, I was at the salon early but was soon met and guided through to the treatment room, left alone to undress but stand, as ever, ready for when He came in the room, which He soon did.
There seemed to be a different mood in the room and I sensed He had a particular and direct purpose, that being to attend to the business of the day -- waxing the areas of my body that needed doing.
Gone are the days when I will be stretched out ready on the treatment table. My default position is to strip naked and stand ready "for inspection", this being veiled in checking the extent of hair growth across my body and therefore identifying what needs doing. Touch appears key for this, sweeping a hand across my flesh identifies to Him the thickness and density of any growth and whether it is therefore ready for removal. It is neither appropriate, professional or conducive to client care and welfare to merely slap on the wax, attach the wax strips and pull all and anything and everything out that will come out, skin being a very fragile canvas.
Sure enough, His hands began to sweep around my body but along the lines of carrying out that assessment of growth. After a short while, the way His hands swept across my body became more focused and intimate and this led Him to state that He was "trying to be good" that day.
