Some people are very comfortable in uncomfortable situations.

Nova, a 19-year-old cosmetology student at the Paul Mitchell School in Louisville, Ky., got a Brazilian wax in front of her classmates. The clip has now gone viral.

She shared that she didn’t think much about volunteering for the in-class demonstration of the waxing technique, which involves removing all of the hair from the pubic area.

“In this school, this is completely normal,” she tells People.

During the demo, Nova captured a video of her classmates’ horrified reactions, and later shared the clip on Instagram, where it went viral.

“Honestly, it was a show,” Nova says of the video. In it, her fellow students can be seen gasping, covering their faces, and cringing.
