We're in the final countdown for Valentine's Day-a week that moves many an ordinarily sane woman to get a heart-shaped bikini wax or a pink-and-red rhinestone rose vajazzled across her crotch. So what are the major waxing trends for 2011? We spoke to top waxers in several cities to find out the big (and very little) V-trends they're seeing this V-Day.

New York City: Tiny Triangle
"The best Valentine's Day wax means letting it grow wild for a few weeks before. Then, right before V-Day, get a tiny triangle of hair buzzed super-short, starting at the top of the lips; everywhere else is waxed bare."
-waxer Lidia Tivichi of the Kimara Ahnert salon

Dallas: Shapes
"When not going bare, our biggest shape requests are for a 'V' for V-Day, Cupid's arrow, or a lightning bolt."
-waxer Candance Spilman of the Bliss spa

Chicago: Bald Eagle
"Sixty percent of women will opt for our 'honeymoon wax'-that's completely bare. Thirty percent get a Brazilian with a landing strip at thin as your pinky, or some of them just want a little tuft the size of a stamp. The other 10 percent get the 'French' style, where the hair looks like an arrow pointing down."
-waxer Jeannette Abou-Mourad of the Sisters Skin Care and Waxing salon

Los Angeles: Tiny Triangle
"One of the most requested styles we're receiving right now is a full Brazilian (taking off everything on the sides and back), but leaving a small triangle, instead of a straight landing strip, up front."
-waxer Michelle Mapes of Stark Waxing Studio

Miami: Shapes
"We've actually had guys coming in for a pyramid-shaped 'he-wax.' Women have been wanting the full monty, or a heart or their guy's initial. Last week, one of my clients requested a 'T' for Tom."
-waxer Megan McGhee of the Bliss spa
