    Eyebrows and bikini get waxed every month, I shave underarms and full leg weekly and use an epilator on my arms, only during the summer though cos it hurts like a *kitten*!

    Should I shave the lower half of my legs or the whole leg?

    Whatever you prefer. I shaved my entire leg - just one ;) - up until I was 27. I was pregnant and just didn't feel like going past my thigh. Not pregnant anymore but still don't feel like going past my thigh. The hair on my thighs is fine and light and hardly noticeable so it doesn't bug me.
    Do any women shave their arms as well as the underarm?

    I did for years and don't recommend it. It feels super gross to have stubble on your arms and growing it out sucks. Underarms only for me now.

    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??

    Leave that kitty in the picture alone!

    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.

    ew i think he means the "treasure trail" as it used to be called and it used to be sexy, but now that i'm seeing it referred to as a way for crabs to become upwardly mobile not so sexy anymore :noway: :ohwell:

    EVERYTHING! lol. My legs from my hipbones to the tops of my feet (including certain nether regions). My arms from my fingers to my shoulder, underarms. I just had my second baby and went crazy with the razor since I haven't been able to reach much lately lol. I'm totally not a fan of hair anywhere on my body except my head (even my eyebrows sorta bother me).

    Did not read thread to see if you indicated why this is a question...but...

    YES SHAVE ALL THE HAIRS!

    I shave my legs and underarms every single time I shower, even if it's 2x a day. I don't shave my arms, I have very fair hair. It takes me like 45 seconds with body wash, I don't know why people say they don't have time to do it. If you do it often, you don't have to do it perfectly because chances of missing the same spot 2x in a row is slim.

    I engage in various hair-removal techniques on legs and other girly parts.

    I don't have much underarm hair, so maybe once a month to catch that one or two if I can find them. Otherwise, I try to keep things shiny.

    I SHAVE EVERYTHING. Except my arms and torso... I also get my eyebrows waxed twice a week. I hate hair.

    Calves, underarms, toes. I do get an occasional hair on my big toe. Odd, I know.

    I usually wait until my man points out that I need to shave...it usually takes him a long time to notice... or if I'm going to be in a bathing suit or shorts around people, then I pretty much shave everything but my arms..can't really see the hair on my arms anyway because it's so thin and light colored.

    I'm a woman and I shave EVERYTHING especially under certain circumstances. I just feel WAY more comfortable that way. Men I think are AWAY more attractive when they shave chest/stomach/back hair. But legs, arms, under arms ETC aren't really something men need to shave. But I feel like when they shave their chest/ stomach their abs/pecs are more defined and its a lot more attractive

    Underarms and everything below the waist usually. For guys, I can stand some hair as long as its not... um... unruly in certain regions.

    Meh, for me, personally, I don't care all that much. I used to be MUCH hairier when I was younger, and somehow, as I got older, the hair all lightened up and thinned out. LoL. I shave my lower leg about once a week, somewhat less in the winter. I generally have no need to shave the upper part, although I will perhaps twice a year, in the summer. I have never needed, nor has the thought even occurred to me, to shave my arms. That's just odd to me. I do shave my armpits most of the time, but I have gone without doing that before, and it really didn't make much difference in how I felt or smelled. I'll do the Brazilian thing occasionally, too, if I'm in the mood, but overall, body hair in general doesn't bother me, on myself or on anyone else.

    I like the feeling of hairless in the right places :) Below the belt (includes legs) and underarms for sure.

    i shave only my underarms in the winter. every 2 weeks-ish.

    i don't shave my lower legs in the winter. (sept - march) my lower leg hair is looooong right now...may almost need an electric razor to get it all off come spring.

    i trim when it becomes too jungle-y downstairs. shaved once and will NEVER do that again. so painful.

    shaving my arms? no. my pakistani friend shaves her arms and she tells me it continues to thicken and grow back faster. sounds futile to me.

    ahh the pleasures of being in a long term relationship. no takebacks! :P

    oh also, my man only shaves his face. i will trim his downstairs region when i feel like it. he's too scared to take scissors down there himself

    Do what you like, it's up to you.

    For me, legs to just above the knee, and underarms. I don't shave my arms.

    The bf doesn't shave anything. If he was ultra hairy then it might be nicer if he did but he's just average - no back hair or anything! :D
