TMI, I know-but bikini lines?!

[Appuskidu]

I was listening to a bunch of much younger work colleagues discussing how 70s and manky pubic hair is () and how nobody has it any more!! It got me thinking-I am 40 and tend to keep things neat and tidy down there most of the year and then if I’m going swimming or abroad, trim it really short with nail scissors and then shave around the edges (by my thighs-is that the bikini line?!)

What do other people do?! Does everyone under 25 just wax off the lot?! Do you shave? Have hair remover creams got better since I used them when I was a teenager and they just burnt your skin, but didn’t remove any hair!!?

I usually use hair remover cream (veet sensitive) to keep it tidy and never had any problems with irritation. But I’ve been brave and booked in for my first bikini wax next week. Despite having two babies with minimal pain relief, I’m scared! I hate ripping a plaster off so I’m not envisaging it being fun...!

I usually have a full wax other than a thin strip down the middle and feel a lot better. Currently 10 weeks pg and been told to avoid waxing for the first 12, now i feel like everything is really overgrown down there as i really don't have the energy to 'tidy' . Waxing isn't as painful as it seems and you soon get used to it. I go every 4 weeks! ohh and im 25 :)
