To shave or not to shave, that is the question.

Shaving: itchy armpits, spot, sweaty pits
Wax: itchy armpits, spots, sweaty pits, sooo much pain.

Why not just let it grow? What do you think? Why put ourselves through this?

Life is too short to be hairy belle!

I basically just leave mine, tbh.

I try to shave legs occasionally for short trousers and skirts, but am dark with sensitive skin so tend to avoid showing them. DH prefers shaved legs, but they stubbly before 24 hrs has passed, so he's really just given up!

As for armpits, I don't worry - I rarely lift my arms in the air wearing a vest, and it's not bushy enough to escape from short sleeves (eg t-shirts) so I leave it!

I had a friend years ago who was a complete non-shaver, having never removed any body hair ever. Her fella preferred women au naturelle, and I used to dream of finding a partner like that!

I leave my legs unless I'm wearing a skirt. It's the underarm hair that's the pain.
