To ask about pubic hair removal?

[cherrycola2004]

I’m quite new here not sure where to post this so feel free to move the post.

I just wonder if you remove your pink hair how do you do it? Shaving is making me so sore and itchy, hair removal cream doesn’t seem to work too well, Home waxing kit was pointless and pretty much just took my skin off (ouch!)

Is a proper wax the only way?

Any tips or tricks?

Thank

PINK hair tee hee.

Seriously, I just trim mine right down. So about 85% of it is gone.

Constant shaving 'down there' doesn't do me any favours.

Iggi, on the other side of that coin maybe if women stop listening to other people as to how their pubic hair should be, they will start thinking more about - and opposing - genital mutilation.

Dividing women and setting them against each other, because of their differing opinions, is counter-productive in my opinion.

Agree with Bertrand’s post.

Other women’s pubes are none of my business.

Only thing I have to add is if you shave use talc afterward religiously or you will get a rash. Epilator for me

The pressure on women to do this is outrageous and it is completely unnatural. No surprises that the multi billion dollar depilation industry is run entirely by men. I've always thought it extremely creepy that the sleaziest of men want /expect women to look like prepubescent girls.

Why do you post like that, Ecclesiastes? Are you just being goady and provocative?

Do you think I give a tiny little shit about your pubic hair or anybody else's? Do you honestly believe that commonsense is measured by being hirsuit or not? Grow up and let women (and men) have their body hair as they want it, ffs.

When did feminism (small 'f') become about policing what other women do with their body hair? I'm fairly certain that it used to be more worthy than that...

Well.

That escalated quickly!

Possibly slightly more aggression than was warranted Lyinwitch

Also nasal waxing ?? I bet the salons hear the kerching of the till when they see you..

By the way your nasal cavity contains unique bacteria..If you start getting in grown hairs up your conk it will not be pleasant.

Melody, mine charges me a flat rate and will whip off any hair anywhere (at my request).

I didn't know about the risk of ingrown hairs though, never had them before when I've tweezed but I will ask about that, thanks.

I discovered that they did nasal waxing. This I thought was a marvellous thing so I had it done

Christ! That must have hurt!

And actually, nostril hair protects your lungs from all sorts of crap. Even newborn babies have it. Your nose will have felt cleaner because all the rubbish that would normally get caught there was just sailing gleefully into your unprotected alveoli . . .

How much I wonder? If woman from the 1940s or 1950s were to walk down any modern high street today I bet she would be completely shocked at what the women of 2017 were being persuaded, convinced and coerced to spend their money on. Believe me, this transformation was thought up and marketed entirely by men.

There's always one isn't there?

YEP the reason I shave my minge is because DH likes 10 year old girls, and wants me to look like one.

le sigh..............

Have you heard of the word misandrist Melody?

It just beggars belief what money making cons gullible consumers will fall for....whats next? Will some man convince you that eyelashes feel less clean??

Schadenfreude, you'd think so but it actually didn't hurt at all, just a 'tugging' sensation.

I realise the unfettered access to airborne crap though...

Have you heard of the word patriarchy?

It just beggars belief what money making cons gullible consumers will fall for....whats next? Will some man convince you that eyelashes feel less clean??

And do it ever stop to think there aren't women who fit into that narrative? That haven't been subjugated or bowed to male pressure?

*you not it

Not his old chestnut again.
Why is it that women are so obsessed with what other women do with their pubic hair?
Go and lurk on a men's forum and see if you can find a thread on how they have their pubic hair. I bet you would be hard pushed to find one.
Plenty of men shave it and you are just as likely to see male porn actors that are clean shaven as female.

Lovely circular argument about nasal hair. It feels cleaner when you get a cold and you get more colds without it so it's a good thing you haven't got it because you get more colds and it feels cleaner.......

Melody, I'm surprised you'd use 1940's/50's women as an example because they were generally, extremely pampered and primped for their male's delectation and approbation.

They just didn't have access to the range of treatments and preparations that we do now. Do you feel this way about tattoos or piercing salons? Bearing in mind that many males now use waxing establishments also?

I don't accept that men like pre-pubescent girls particularly but if they do, they'd want them in any manner just as long as they were underage. That I do believe. Women's bodies (that are not severely malnourished) just don't look like pre-pubescent girls' bodies. The inference that posters are with wanna-be child molesters really is quite offensive as you'd imagine.

It's an interesting debate if it doesn't get personal and nasty.

Bertrand, if I could do just ONE thing to stop getting colds, I would do it. I've just had one because my husband had a flu jab and immediately got one. It was the first time I'd had a nose wax (about a month ago) but... anytime he catches a cold, so do I.

Believe me, my point in an earlier post that I neglected to mention was that I am not a pretty cold-sufferer. I look the worst; red nose, runny eyes, unstoppable sneezing, the works...

Maybe I should move out?

I have a beautician wax mine! She is brilliant. She does my eye brows too. It’s really good!

@Melodyvonpeterswald

I take it that you (and other women) who claim that women only shave their minge to please their man, and it's the 'patriarchy' who make them do it, don't ever wear make up, or nice clothes that show off their figure, (or a bra,) they don't dye their hair, or have it styled, and never go to the hairdresser, they never file or paint their nails, they never pluck their eyebrows, they never wax their moustache, they never shave their legs, they never shave their pits, they never put any kind of moisturising cream on.. nothing ever.

Of COURSE they don't, coz if they did that would make them a massive hypocrite wouldn't it?!

I mean, if you think women shaving their minge are doing it so it looks more appealing to their man, then surely ANYthing you do that enhances your physical form is for your man?!

You have to agree with that, otherwise you are going to look like a disingenuous twat.

Me personally, I shave my minge because i like how it looks and feels. The fact DH loves it is a bonus.

But you go on saying I do it because the PATRIARCHY tells me to do it.

And then jump back in your time machine to the 1940's and take your misandrist shit with you. Your attitude that men must be attracted to little children, and are sleazy as fuck, because they prefer a shaven minge, is fucking disgusting.

No surprises that the multi billion dollar depilation industry is run entirely by men

An interesting claim. Every waxing salon that I've ever used has been managed and staffed entirely by women. And I know for a fact that the independent salon that I currently use is owned by a woman.

Mine too, Joey but I think that the point will be made that the omnipresent pressure for such treatments come from the patriarchy. Delivery of the treatments is at the point that the 'ship has sailed' (from a feminist perspective perhaps) and isn't really the critical point.

Absolutely, but admitting to this would not fit it with Melody's misandrist agenda.
