    I shave my lower legs. The hair on my thighs is really fine, and when I've tried to shave them in the past they get really irritated, so I just let them be. I shave my arm pits and the little crab ladder that grows under my belly button.


    Hold on, Hold on..... "Crab Ladder" and it's under your belly button?!?! Not sure I want to know what that is.

    Well, some people call it a "treasure trail", but I much prefer "crab ladder". I'm a lady, afterall. :happy: Just a tiny line of hair that grows vertically under my belly button.

    What about guys..do you like the whole hairy guy thing or are you going to wax and shave him too?

    Or maybe we can have some more guy replies?

    Personally, I don`t like a hairy back (not that I have got one, except on my profile pic)

    I only shave my lower leg up to just above my knee... and my big toe. :( I shave my arms just like once a year in the spring.

    My boyfriend has hairy everything. I joke that its all pubic hair since its all attached ( He doesn't like that joke so much) None of it bothers me. We do shave his back when he is swimming in public.

    Ya'll really shave your arms?! Doesn't the hair grow back out like cacti thorns?! Why not wax, instead?!?

    Ooooh! waxing isn`t that painful??? Shaving is so much `pain free` lol

    Pain free my *kitten*.
    '

    You're talking to a girl who gets waxed. IT IS PAINFUL!

    That said, I shave my underarms, legs, and bikini areas.

    Not going to bother with arms.

    Actually the hair on my arms grow back less abundantly when I shave. I've had some reactions to wax in the past, so I'm leary of waxing. Plus you have to let it grow in long enough for the wax to catch--gross!

    I enjoy the smooth arms!

    Not yet, but sadly maybe in the future. I guess we are just practicing public safety now. :)

    Glad I have fine blonde hair on my arms. I think it would be hell to have stubble on my arms from shaving. I've bumped up against stubbly arms before and it's a creepy feeling. If it was dark I think I'd just bleach it - too lazy to shave all the time. Too wimpy to wax...

    On guys I prefer them to be natural.

    Waxing isn't that painful and it is great not to have to shave or tweeze for 4 - 6 weeks!!

    That being said, I don't get my legs waxed, yet...

    I am lazy in the winter and shave only when I have to... and since I am married to a wonderful man that doesn't really care about leg hair, I basically don't shave my legs from Nov to March. Being blessed with baby fine hair has it's advantages!

    Underarms I do every few weeks in the winter, since I don't wear tank tops or anything less than short sleeves when it is cold out. (I said I'm lazy!)

    Summer, underarms and lower legs get shaved every week. Although, now that I have found the most amazing wax lady, I may just have her do everything when I go every 6 weeks!

    I personally shave everything...as far as what I prefer on a guy, either is fine with me as long as a certain area is kept trimmed up :))

    I only shave if I intend to show skin, and then only shave that. Doesn't matter how sharp my razors are or how many blades there are or how much shaving gel I use, its uncomfortable at best and hurts at worst. Darn sensitive skin.

    Question for you ladies......have you used the new Venus? I forget the name but it is nice for the legs as it is wider and covers more area quicker. But I have a hard time shaving my kitty with it becuase of the wider design. Am I alone here? Any recommendations on a razor for that area??

    How about here arms? :laugh: :tongue: :drinker:
  • Everything waist down, and my arm pits. I would NEVER shave my arms. They are dark hairs but not very many so I just leave them alone. I usually have my sleeves up even if I'm wearing long sleeves so having them grow back all the time would be an utter pain.
