    My husband uses his electric razor and it was sucking my skin in and it gave me some scarring. My dermatologist and gynocologist both suggested just trimming the area and leaving some short hairs there so that I don't have to deal with the bumps/itching of ingrown hairs. That seems to be working pretty well.

    I have a friend that works in a hair salon and she does that kind of waxing and she said it hurts terribly. I almost let her wax me the last time I was there but I chickened out. If you do it, let me know bad it hurts haha.

    wonder if the hair removal cream works!

    I'm thinking the same thing. I know how bad the eyebrows hurt and how sometimes they get all red and puffy. Makes me think twice about waxing down there.

    Get laser hair removal, it's not that sore...or just wax it, it's worth a little pain!

    Get yourself some hair removal cream, avon do a fab one, it works in half the time of major store brands and you don't get that horrible regrowth itch you get if you shave. It doesn't last as long as waxing but at least you can do it within minutes in the comfort of your own home then jump straight in the showe ;0)

    I shave it all off. I don't leave anything ever. It doesn't bother my skin and I don't get any ingrown hairs or anything. And I have very sensitive skin usually.

    I agree - its not that bad.

    Take a paracetamol before hand, make sure its trimmed before you go (it hurts more with longer hairs) and man up :-)

    Its worth it for not having the itchy regrowth, and the more often you have it done, the less it grows back.

    I even do my own now!

    You need to go get a wax. I know the idea of it is scary and YES, it hurts like a b**** the first time but there is just no way to make shaving down yonder a good idea, for anyone, ever. Where I live, you can get a really good wax for really inexpensive since we have bathing suits on for 8 months out of the year. I think it's about $50 for a brazilian or just like $25 for a bikini wax. If you can get over going the first time, you're good.

    And FTR you didn't just suddenly turn into a wooly mammoth, you just don't have a lot of fat hiding what you couldn't see now, lol. It's the same reason that some men think their...... ya know.... grows when they loose weight. ;)

    If you're going to shave, go with the grain, not against. Also get a product like Bikini Zone to apply when you are done.

    After years of shaving, I'm in the process of getting the laser removal. Love it! Groupon often has GREAT deals. It's not painless, but it's worth it.

    What you should do if you consider waxing is shave, and book the appointment about a week or two after, to allow for growth. The esthetician needs a certain length of hair in order for the wax to "grip". But you definitely will not regret it. I stopped doing it because it was becoming financially burdensome, but if you can do it!

    LOL. I use a bikini trimmer I got from Sephora. You have different attachments to choose from that will give you different lengths of hair. It makes it look neat and clean.
