The first time you wax if you've never done it before, I always suggest someone goes and pays the extra money to have it done, for two reasons. One you get to learn what it is exactly you should be doing and two, the first time can be painful for some women since those hairs have been there all their lives.
Once you've waxed once it's easier and less painful from then on. Then you'll be ready to try it out yourself with a store kit. I always liked the sugar based ones instead of real wax, because it cleans up way easier. warm water and soap. You really don't even have to do it very often if you are only after making the hair thinner and lighter. I use to do it about every 4 to 5 months and then just shave the rest of the time.
After 8 years of waxing, I moved on to an epilator, which I absolutely love. It looks like a razor, but pulls the hairs out like waxing. I paid about 50 for a really nice one on amazon.
