Quote:
"The guy, whose buttocks I waxed, fell in love with me." OR "The guy whose buttocks I waxed fell in love with me."
This is a tricky one for me. I didn't know if I should have taken out your comma or add another comma after 'the guy'. Can anyone help?

I think it depend on the situation. If you are using "whose buttocks I waxed" as way identifying the guy, as in, "not the guy who came in for a mani/pedi", then commas aren't necessary. If you've previously established the identity, and "whose buttocks I waxed' is an aside to provide supplementary or gratuitous information, then the use of commas to form a parenthetical phrase is appropriate.
