The pain is overrated. Seriously.
The pain lasts for a second, doesn't linger at all (your skin is pretty resilient to pain). If you can get used to the pain of waxing your legs and underarm then you can definitely get used to this.
Hair has to be about 1cm in length. Make sure the beautician uses wax that will harden and NOT strip wax that they typically use on legs. Wax that hardens will get a better grip on the hair so it reduces the chances of the beautician having to re-wax the same area if the first try missed hair (and re-waxing the same area could cause bruising).
I think the BIGGER issue people have is being comfortable while naked from the waist down in front of someone else.
1. Try and be comfortable with the person doing the waxing.
2. You do not need any painkillers (unless you REALLY can't take ANY kind of pain). If you want, you can buy an anaesthetic cream from a pharmacy apply it just before you go for the waxing.
3. Beauticians are professionals and there is no reason for you to be paranoid about what they could possibly think of your body. They do this for a living. They're like dentists.
4. Stare at the ceiling during the waxing, do NOT look at what's going on down there.
Does it hurt: Yes, like a mother....but not for long :)
Is is worth it: Hell, yes!

Bikini waxes do not hurt that bad. the only thing i would be wary of is getting it done a week before your period. that when your body is the most sensitive and the waxing will hurt more.
to me a bikini wax feels like an eyebrow wax.

No big difference. If you are able to bare with the pain of getting your eyebrows, lip and chin waxed, why don't you go for the bikini wax.
Brazilian wax is the painful one.

I think the lip hurts the worst..its more sensitve than the eyebrows and chin. Bikini wax hurts the first time, maybe the 2nd time too. As you keep going, it'll get easier and less painful. It's better than shaving (hate those bumps and the itching when it grows back) and its much smoother, too. It'll last longer.

I find the lip wax hurts much more than the bikini wax. It only hurts the first time. Believe me, it is well worth it and much better than shaving.

It hurts I ain't gonna misinform you. I gave it up on account that I have a relatively deep scar and so everytime I did my possess I could draw blood. Thick hair conditioner and a razor, no inflammation in any respect!
