New Jersey Plans Banning of Brazilian Wax

From New Jersey comes news that state legislators are considering banning that most painful of experiences, the Brazilian wax. When ladies aren't content with just managing the bikini line, they often choose to go full bore and opt for the Brazilian. Besides the obviously painful experience, apparently law makers in New Jersey are convinced that real bodily harm may result, and they aren't going to stand for it! The representatives recently heard from several individuals (all female, we hope!) stating that in the process of receiving their waxes, they were subjected to some form of injury; most likely infection or rashes from skin irritation.

Interestingly enough, it appears that Brazilian waxing was never legal in New Jersey to begin with! Although it is not specifically outlawed, per the article, "Technically, genital waxing has never been allowed in New Jersey — only the face, neck, abdomen, legs and arms are permitted." New Jersey Italians will be happy to learn that after reconsidering and hearing testimony from cosmetologists who swear they can perform the procedure safely, Brazilian waxes will not be banned anytime soon.
