Continuing the Body Hair thread, if you had the option for any sort of hair removal, what would it be? Shaving or Waxing?

Girls should wax, guys should shave ;)

But waxing requires a grow out before waxing again .. shaving daily keeps everything nice and smooth :)

You'll just have to excuse me. I let my friend read the "Body Hair" and then she said that if more people knew about waxing and had more access to it, then most people would choose that over shaving any time.

So just to state my preference, waxing is the way to go for me. Hooray for me, I getting waxed today, before I head back to England for Christmas. I'm getting the whole lot. Eye brows, half legged (since I barely got hair above my knees, and underarms. Okay, maybe that's too much information.

And fotomann... that where is a general question!

Hmm... I guess during those days of nasty growth, we just have to make sure we're well covered in those areas.

You'll be happy to know I did NOT shave my butt for my new profile pic :-)

I prefer NOT to cover up so I'll shave daily ;)

Wax once a month, shave when i want insta-smooth and laser every three months. It's a Total Hair Management System .... kind of like weeding a garden.

i'm not all that hairy so it didn't hurt that bad. I did have a sort of irritation for a few days though.
