New Jersey is drawing the line when it comes to bikini waxing.
The state Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling is moving toward a ban on genital waxing altogether after two women reported being injured in their quest for a smooth bikini line.
Both women were hospitalized for infections following so-called "Brazilian" bikini waxes; one of the women has filed a lawsuit, according to Jeff Lamm, a spokesman for New Jersey's Division of Consumer Affairs, which oversees the cosmetology board.
Technically, genital waxing has never been allowed — only the face, neck, abdomen, legs and arms are permitted — but because bare-it-all "Brazilians" weren't specifically banned, state regulators haven't enforced the law.
"The genital area is not part of the abdomen or legs as some might assume," Lamm said.

Snort.
Back alley waxers will set up.
I have a sad story to tell you
It may hurt your feelings a bit
Last night when I walked into my bathroom
I stepped in a big pile of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you’ll always look keen
I think I’ll break off with my girlfriend
Her antics are queer, I’ll admit
Each time I say, “Darling, I love you”
She tells me that I’m full of ...
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you’ll always look keen
No, silly. Choice is only about abortion. It isn’t about what food you eat, what chemicals you ingest for medical or recreational purposes, where you work, what your do, where you live, what you buy or sell, what hair you keep or remove, what you drive, what you read, what you say or who you vote for. You only have a choice for abortion. < / I wish it was sarcasm>
It’s a woman’s body and, therefore, her choice. What right does the state have to make laws preventing a woman’s right to choose? Oh, wrong issue...
I always wondered what the blues brothers meant when they sang “Raw Hide”.
Just how are they — and who — is going to enforce this? Surely this is a buyer beware situation, not an occasion for government interference.
I see nothing “gross” about it FWIW...
In an Onion kind of way, you probably are right. This is a gay economy with gay governments who love “Mrs Doubtfire” and her “mediteranean style”...(ok, now I can barf)
When bikini waxes are made criminal, only criminals will have bikini waxes!
Bush doctors?
The hubbies and boyfriends like it for sure.
A couple of weeks ago in a two day period I must have done at least 19-15 brazilians. As it turned out, last monday and tuesday a bunch of soldiers arrived from Iraq back to Ft. Huachuca and the wives and girlfriends were getting ready for their men.
Glad to do my part for troop morale.
Hoo Ha!!
I think the government should pay for his waxing. I would happily chip in.
You sure have an interesting job.
One may find it strange but the left sees it as politicaly incorrectly high class... except of course in the Black Entertainment TV Channel where black women are the queen and the white ones doing the waxing are the dum slaves.
Damn, now I have that song stuck in my head.
