Brazilian Wax

Denise
Ladies, I need some feedback. I've never had a Brazilian was before. I've always just only shaved. That is becoming such a hassle since I'm 6 months pregnant and have to shave at least every other day. With the Brazilian wax, I heard the hair stays gone long and doesn't come back as coarse. Is that true? And also, is there a way to do it yourself rather than spreading eagle for a total stranger? Help?!
