Page 6 | Do you shave your legs in the winter?

I last shaved my legs in September and won't shave them again until about April.

Once a week or so. Like a pp I was glad I did the Sunday night defuzzing recently as I ended up in A+E next day and was admitted. Showered and shaved just in time! Ultra clean undergarments also whew.

No, furry until shorts weather

I wear shorts all year round, so yes!

I do swim weekly in the winter but don’t feel shaving essential for this, and wouldn’t be upset if some hairy leg visible at the gym. Do shave sometimes but definitely not regularly and much less in the winter.

I swim all year too. I dont care! No one should be looking and if they did notice, so what. We all have body hair, they just choose to shave theirs

StupidHappyClocks · 07/12/2025 09:57

Yes, but I’m a lot lazier. Probably once a week rather than every other day.

Rituelec · 07/12/2025 09:56

Nop. Dont care

I'm surprised no one has said yes because they go swimming or do other exercise during the winter. I get far too hot in full length leggings. For that reason alone, yes. And also because I just feel a bit gross otherwise.

Hairy pits and legs for the winter. I sometimes shave pits depending on what I'm wearing but can go all winter without, I'm not one for a strappy tip anyway.

Nope, I never shave, even in summer.

I hate it that the beauty standard is for women to look like a prepubescent girl.

I had very hairy legs as a child - only started shaving when I hit puberty. So it's the other way around for me 😅

PGmicstand · 07/12/2025 09:50

No. Or in the summer.
Might shave my armpits once in a while, but I mostly live in jeans, so my legs need to be comfy.

GumFossil · 07/12/2025 09:49

I IPLd my legs and armpits years ago, so have no hair.

LemonLeaves · 07/12/2025 09:46

Once a week. Mine doesn't grow particularly fast though - so even in the summer it's only twice a week, and that's more to stop my legs feeling stubble-y as I tend to wear skirts and shorts a lot.

MarmaladeSandwich7 · 07/12/2025 09:45

I had a lower leg wax recently but that was only because I was going to a spa.

MyPersonalExperience · 07/12/2025 07:22

I didn't but then I got blue lighted to hospital in my tatty nightie, no knickers and with hairy legs. My mum always used to say wear respectable knickers in case you get run over. I would add shaving legs to that advice...

Honestly as an anaesthetist we couldn't care less about the amount of hair on someone's legs nor their underwear....

MightyGoldBear · 07/12/2025 09:41

I shave all year round it's a sensory element for me. I want to scratch my skin off if its hairy. I'm hoping to laser it all when I can afford. I'd most welcome any epilator recommendations.

YouHaveAnArse · 07/12/2025 09:39

You do you if you like shaving, though. Personally I think armpit hair on women looks pretty cool. (If you think 'ew, gross' but wouldn't were it a man, ask yourself why)

khfippjjj · 07/12/2025 09:37

Yes as I play a sport with a kit which shows leg, it’s not much effort though, I’m lucky to have very fine light hair that only needs shaving once a week, if that.

YouHaveAnArse · 07/12/2025 09:37

Don't shave, don't give a fuck. And won't until men are expected to spend time, effort and pain removing all their body hair.

Handeyethingyowl · 07/12/2025 09:36

I get a half leg wax while getting my eyelashes dyed now as I am lazy. But I don’t often bother in winter. I am rarely bare-legged and my medical appointment
embarrassment scale went out of the window when I gave birth.

BlueEyedBogWitch · 07/12/2025 09:35

Do men who shave their faces get accused of trying to look like pre-pubescent boys?

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Might as well just please yourself.

Yes because I find that the hairs just stick through your tights eventually (I have dark hair that grows quickly), also people notice when you sit down and cross your legs and your jeans ride up and DP would find it a turn off!

I dont remember my husband ever mentioning my legs hair or not

Really? My DH couldn’t care less what I do about my body hair. Whatever I do is fine by him.

Notmyreality · 07/12/2025 09:27

No, I get someone else to do it.

TubeScreamer · 07/12/2025 09:26

Yes, pretty much every day. I hate the prickly, itchy leg feeling if I don’t shave.

I don't even shave my armpits in winter but they usually aren't exposed. I was putting the deccies up the other day though and was particularly hot so changed into a vest top. I told my husband I had big dick energy and my armpits were hairer than his and showed him and he said it looked like an ink cartridge had exploded under my armpit 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yuck !
Is your husband not turned off by hair ?
I’m single & keep everywhere shaved no matter what the season , if it was only for hygiene reasons alone .

Are you not intimate with your DH in the winter months either? I'm just wondering why you had to show him the hairy pits, has he not seen them in the last few months?
