Los Angeles, April 17 (IANS): Khloe Kardashian was tricked into undergoing a "traumatising" under-arm wax at the age of 13.

Speaking to people.com about her unforgettable beauty experience, Khloe said: "My mom has always been very crazy about rituals and routine. I remember she made me get a facial for the first time, I was like 13, and I guess I'd started having hair under my arms.

"During my facial, I had someone come and wax my underarms and I was so terrified because she didn't warn me! I was like, 'What is happening?!' I thought that was part of the facial. It was so traumatising. I remember I didn't want a facial for like years cause I thought that came with it."

However, the 31-year-old finds it amusing that Kris Jenner acts differently to other mothers who gently ease their daughters into puberty.

"It's funny because my mom is so polished. Most people would be like, 'This is what you do. Take a razor and so on.' And my mom was like, 'We're waxing this!'" she said.

Meanwhile, the TV personality has said that she has grown into her body confidence and has embraced being make-up free, although she is excited to age and hopes to do so gracefully - even if it is at the hand of cosmetic surgery.

She said: "When I was younger, I never wanted to be bare-faced, cause you're a little more insecure.
