15. the little red bumps that had popped up after the wax had swollen and were now pus-filled

“I got my first Brazilian wax the other day (I’ve only had bikinis before) and it went all right, painful of course but that’s to be expected. So when I left my skin was very red and swollen and looked almost rashy but the woman who did the waxing told me that it was completely normal and all of that would be gone within a few hours. Well that area was very red and tender throughout the rest of the day and horribly, the next morning when I was getting dressed I saw that the little red bumps that had popped up after the wax had swollen and were now pus-filled and absolutely covering the front of my crotch. It’s awful! They pop very easily but they are hideous and that whole area is still bright red.”
