1) yes
2) I got a compliment from a (much) older woman on a nudie beach, so it must not have looked bad. More importantly, my wife liked it.
3) yes; for me, if it would be covered in a thong, it was waxed!
4) Pain wasn't a big issues; BUT they strongly suggested I go home and quickly soak in COLD water

. I had to run about 100 erronds first and didn't get in the tub for about 6 hours; I had SERIOUS razor burn/bump (but when I shaved the same areas, I rarely got ANY razor burn). It looked like hell for about 5 days.
5) I like my women (wife) baby bald, so thats the style I choose
6) DIdn't ask for butt cheeks to be done... pretty much hairless already...
Going through laser now, so not a concern any more (all laser commercials are wrong; it hurts like hell

!!! But, it is gone once they are done with all treatments)
