I managed to do my bikini line with epilator!

[sortingmyselfoutslowly]

String painkillers and determination got me through it somehow. Jesus Christ that was an experience!

Strong. They really had to be!

I can't even do the backs of my knees!

I actually find the bikini line (where the leg meets as opposed to actually on the lips) much less painful then the back of my legs.

Omfg. I'm a seasoned epilator. I can do my legs and most of around the front of the bikini line but not underneath 😮. The wax comes out for that. Although I am a right hairy mary in that area. Really hairy 😣

Didn't do underneath... but enought to wear swimsuit!

I have massive PCOS issues with hair so this is a big deal, to get it sorted :)

Well done! I've been doing it for years, never bothered with painkillers, and it gets less painful over time and some of the hair stops growing back. I have bald patches! Key thing is to make sure the skin is as taught as possible.

Excellent well done, I haven't managed there yet, but will grind my loins when the weather peaks up here.

How long does the pimply rash take to go down? I'll be on the beach in 2 days, is that long enough?

I use an epilator on mine, been doing it years so no longer painful and very sparse regrowth now.

You need some Tend Skin! The bumpiness never really went for me before, I was just used to it. Didn't have any colour, just bumpy.

I saw this stuff on something in Buzzfeed and it's a life changer. Expensive and smells horrendous but my god it works. And quickly!

Thanks Anne I will try Boots at the airport!

Fucking hell OP. You are NAILS.

If you've got Amazon you should be able to get it next fat delivery!

Flight leaves tomorrow morning but I'm going to a salon tonight so will ask them :)

Nom I'm really not that tough! Just was desperate not to shave for holiday and too late notice for a wax. Will definitely do it again!

I learn so much from mn.

I do it with an epilator it's not that painful. Baby powder before you start so the skin is v dry.

I have one of these its ace

Yeah freda, but I try to stay away from shaving tools. Regrowth is usually itchy and way too quick.

Shaving only gets it smooth for about ten minutes, hairs there grow back so quickly and shaving also gives a really blunt edge, so prickly.

Antihistamine taken before hand should help with redness from any hair removal, especially using an eplitor or waxing.
