I've always waxed by myself cause I started as a poor college student, but there's definitely a learning curve. In the beginning, I'd take an Advil about an hour beforehand to help with the pain, but I don't need to do that anymore. For beginners, I would recommend sugar wax like Parissa Body Sugar because in my experience, it's a little less painful, less likely to rip off skin, washes off with soap and water in case you mess up, etc. Because it isn't as "grippy" as normal wax, it can leave some stray hairs behind, but I find the easy clean-up to be super important for DIY. You can play around with how much you want to groom - the mons and labia are going to be more sensitive and painful to wax compared to the areas further away so sometimes I'd just trim those and wax the areas that would peek over the top and sides of a bikini.
I started off using Surgi Wax Brazilian Hard Wax since you don't need any cloth strips - just apply, wait for it to harden slightly and then rip off. I switched to Parissa Strip-Free Hot Wax at some point in college since I didn't have a microwave and only my wax warmer, and it was roughly the same. The issue with strip-free wax is if it's too hard, it's a BITCH to deal with and the only way to get it off is to either cut the hair or melt the wax (owww..) I've also tried the Parissa Warm Wax which uses cloth strips that you rip while the wax is still warm and pliable, and I think this was definitely the application result that yielded the smoothest results. The strip-free wax would only reliably grip hair longer than 0.25", but this one seemed to get it all. If you go to a professional, they'll probably use the warm wax with strips and you'll have really smooth results. (You also don't have to deal with the anxiety of pulling the hair off yourself if you go to someone. :D) These waxes are difficult to clean though. You basically have to wait until they harden so you can chip them off like candle wax or apply oil to loosen it.
I think that was probably more information than you needed, but hope it was helpful! Haha....
