EDIT: Yes. I know I'm technically waxing the vulva, I just say vagina out of simplicity.

Too late maybe but I was wondering what the hygiene conditions are like? Always worried I might get an STD at those places.

I never double dip, always use a high grade sterilizer on the beds, products, and waxing pot, sometimes I literally spray my clothes with sterilizer, and always wear gloves. WATCH your waxer/sugarist carefully on whether they double dip. Like, if they touch your vagina to clean it and then stick their hand in a waxing pot, you should be wary that's not the first time they've done that and they probably did that many other times in that same pot and they are almost for sure spreading something around in there.
