Waxing Law: Hairy Situation in New Jersey

A growing controversy could lead to a hairy situation in New Jersey.
The Brazilian wax could be ripped from salons if a proposed ban on genital waxing is passed by N.J.’s Board of Cosmetology and Hairstyling.
So, you may have to cover up "down the shore" this summer.
N.J. law is a bit fuzzy when it comes to the hair down there, but according to the state, genital waxing is illegal. Only the face, neck, abdomen, legs and arms of patrons can be stripped, according to the Philadelphia Daily News.
Who knew? Apparently not many salon owners...
Still, beauty schools teach the procedure and most salons offer it to clients who want to bare all.
So, why would the wax get cut now? Two women filed complaints with the board after being hospitalized due to their hair-ridding sessions. One even sued, Jeff Lamm of the N.J. Division of Consumer Affairs told the paper.
Salons are concerned their profits may be shaved if this is passed, a salon owner told the Daily News.
They’re also worried women, and men, may be forced to ditch their pubic hair on their own, through waxing themselves, if the proposal sticks.
And so help us if we have to resort to this to make the natural look more fashionable.
How about just a bit more modesty at the beach? Then, nobody would ever know what people have growing, or not growing, down there. Jeez, maybe some swimsuits and shorts are too skimpy if you have to remove your natural hair from that area, and you don’t want that hair sticking out. Just a thought.
Lets see how did the Greeks and Romans do it? Tweezers used by hair pullers but what would be the hourly wage and would the Stimulus support this?
With rusty coat hangers no less...
Forgive me, Lord, but I so love FReep humor. LOL
I’ll check in later for the obligatory “men make the strangest request picture”.
I tried to do a Google search - using “tiny bikini” - to come up with a good picture (obligatory, I think) for this thread. After browsing about 275 pages of Google search image returns, I figured that they were too racy to post here.
...now if you’ll excuse me...
276...
But....didn’t the Porkulus Bill have a big chunk set aside for “beaver management” somewhere?
May be a opportunity to SUE for emotional distress when out for a session of Beach girl watching?
I am VERY SURE you could find a scumbag Lawyer to do just that!
THANKS!
I just lost my morning coffee to my keyboard!
CSOKLMAO
lol...sayfer, you are BAAAAAD. Hilarious, but BAAAAAAD. That one’s a keeper.
Regards,
So, that incredibly old grade school joke finally becomes a reality.
FBI = Female Body Inspector
Will there be an inter-agency fight over who gets the acronym?
Colonel Angus? I don’t know nothin’ about no Colonel Angus!
Let it grow. Just be sure to part it in the middle.
What else do you expect from a state that won’t let you pump your own gas!
I think it was Dave Barry who once asked what it really must have been like for a boy in the 1950’s to be known as “Beaver Cleaver”.
Anyway, there was a TV series on “E” which showed the expressions on young women’s faces as the bikini wax strip was being ripped off of their well, uh, you know.....
;^)
NO More Calls, Please.
We have a WINNER!
Cheers!
Did you say hairy bikini?
“This will just lead to back-alley genital waxing.”
No need. Just cross the river to Manhattan, the salon’s there will accommodate.
