Right I’m just going to say this. Never had any professional pubic tidying. Just trimmed myself.The problem is as I get older everything gets bushier .. including v hairy inner thighs. The other problem is I have pale sensitive skin but dark hair. So waxing will just cause a rash and itchy stubble which by the time it has gone down the hair growth will be back! I don’t want to look like a porn star I just want to be neater and yes feel a bit sexier. Any advice?

A Phillips Lumea! My bikini line is now smooth with nine of the ingrown hairs I used to get with shaving or epilating.

So can you use that all over? Thighs too? Without stubble?

I only neaten up around the edges, but I believe it can be used for more extreme topiary...

Yes, it's pricey, but I had disposable income when I bought mine three years ago and it's been worth the cost for the impact on my underarms, bikini line and 'tache. Most of my leg hair is more pale, so they are still insulated but with less of the darker hair.

I've started laser hair removal at a clinic. It's perfect for dark hair on pale skin. Pricey though.

I have a little pair of “ clippers” - god only knows what they’re actually called. I give everything a strim to keep it short. For the bits like your undercarriage that you might want bald I used a hair removal cream ( obviously for bikini) and although I have had problems for hair removal creams on my face I have no problems with any adverse reactions on my unmentionables.
