Wax or laser hair removal!?

So I am absolutely sick to death of shaving, down there!!!

I've never been waxed down there before, never tried it myself or anything. Tried the creams but they just don't work for me.

Just wondering if anyone has done either and can recommenced which best!!!

Philips lumea prestige. It's expensive at £400, but it's worth every penny. I have dark hair. If I shaved my legs in the morning before work I'd be stubbly by evening "going out" time and have to shave again.

After 4 treatments at home I've barely any hair growing on my legs, no under arm hair, no top lip, no belly fuzz, chin hair almost gone. It's a miracle.

Lycon waxing is brilliant but can be expensive and the regrowth is annoying

I have recently bought a lumea and it has massively reduced hair growth.

If you can afford it then absolutely invest in laser

Oh and my bush pretty much grows in a nice neat triangle now, none left around my bikini line.

If you like the bare look I dare say it would work, however I like a bit of hair there ha

I switched from waxing to laser due to awful ingrown hairs.
I’d say it worked on around 50% of the hair but on the underneath bit it hasn’t worked at all and I still need to wax (just not as regularly)

I’m keen to try the prestige next as I don’t think the laser therapist I saw was as thorough as she should have been. I once had her boss when she was on holiday and she took much more time and seemed to do a lot more

I have an epilator - it hurts less than waxing (I think anyway)
