We all enjoy watching Dr. Pimple Popper go up against giant cysts and monster lipomas, but if you want to branch out to another genre of satisfyingly weird internet videos, you've got to check out Liz Lugo's Instagram account. A licensed esthetician working in Temecula, California, Lugo discovered about a year ago that videos of her body-waxing techniques went viral and increased her business—so now she posts waxing clips all the time. And they are truly hypnotic.
Dang, that is nothing like I imagined the waxing experience, but I guess I was just remembering that scene in The 40-Year-Old Virgin. And people seem to love watching Lugo work. "I most often hear that it's really therapeutic," she told CNBC. "I'm very methodical in how I lay my strips. It helps them sleep at night. It relaxes them." Truly, her application is masterful.
But the best part—aside from not feeling the pain of having your body hair ripped out by the roots—is that these videos are a bit safer for work than the nasty stuff Dr. Pimple Popper tends to post. Sure, it'll still be weird to explain to your boss, but at least he won't throw up on your desk.
