missionseeker Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 [quote name='IcePrincessKRS' timestamp='1333136228' post='2410750'] Yeah, whenever I hear those laser hair removal commercials on the radio I just wonder what in the heck they're doing that shaving costs them "soooo much time!" They must be sasquatches. [/quote] Well if you watch, you'll see that they are clutzes. They fall over and drop their razors. then they pout and become disoriented. It's probably safer for them to get laser removal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaeology cat Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 [quote name='missionseeker' timestamp='1333087275' post='2410565'] I actually don't mind shaving. It doesn't take *that* long, and it just feels so much better. My biggest problem with shaving is being able to afford a razor. [/quote]Razors last longer if you dry it off afterwards. That tip has saved me money. Right now I think I could shave twice a day with these pregnancy hormones! Annoying. As for skirts being modest, they don't feel modest when a child is trying to hide under them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yeah, I keep mine outside the shower on a shelf. It keeps it from getting wet during other people's showers, too. I have found that I need to buy the more costly Gillette or Schick razors, though, because the cheap ones irritate my skin (and I [b]don't[/b] have sensitive skin).

MissScripture Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I have found that cheap men's razors work better than cheap women's razors. I'm not sure what is different, but they just seem to not irritate my legs as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't usually get razor burn but every time I try out a cheap razor I have bumps and razor burn. It's not bad, just ugly and annoying. Especially if I wear a sleeveless shirt (I live in the south, sleeveless shirts are sometimes necessary no matter what anyone says about modesty. I figure if my boobs aren't hanging out it's modest.)

My sister waxes, after a couple years of going to a salon to have it done she started doing it herself. She even does her pits. Thinking to myself "If she can, I can" I gave it a try. My legs were no problem, although I find it more of a hassle for essentially the same results as a razor, but when I tried my underarms I frikkin' bled. I was like "say what?!, totally shaving from now on!" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 when i was pregnant, towards the end, i'd get my legs waxed every six weeks. just didn't want to try to bend over and shave at that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the winter months I only shaved the day before (or of) a doctor appointment. I was way too nauseated to make an appointment and have someone else wax for me. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
