Waxing

Who else here waxes??

ive been waxing my legs for 3 years now, and ive NEVER shaved them, started waxing and im still doing it.

the best thing about it is that i dont have to pay!! lol because my mum is a pro. and she just does it for me

i dont think im ever going to shave my legs or do anything other than waxing. My leg hairs are thin and i just think that shaving will make them grow back thicker and quicker

    Haha. same goes for asian genes >=(
    I use an epilator. I tried wax but I wasn`t very good at it and it always left a residue.

    With the epilator its easier and there is no mess as with wax. I used to shave, but then the hairs got thicker and had to do it too regularly for my liking. Downside, I think my skin doesn`t like it much I get red spots (not bumpy ones–just like a discolouring) under the skin.

    I wax my legs in summer mainly because of the heat but it grows back way too quicky.
    Damn my European genes!

    I used to wax my legs, but eventually ran out of time and money and reverted to shaving. So much easier, but nowhere near the same results. I`ve been thinking about going back to waxing for a while now, but as I said – time and money.
    I`ve always waxed my eyebrows though. Love the look of them. As in the non-monobrow look. Thanks dad, for my faulty genes 😉 But I think that the effort is beginning to pay off, they don`t grow back anywhere near as fast now 🙂

    I`ve been waxing ever since I was much younger (which was a long time ago) and, no, I`ve never shaved my legs. Unfortunately, my mother isn`t a pro. (and she`s an itty bit more elderly than me) so I have to pay for my waxes. Back in pre-historic times, I did try to use those self-waxing kits for a while, but the old style kits had to be melted in the microwave after using every wax strip, so it took a half a day to wax two half legs. Not half worth it. I now have very thin hair on my legs, even though I haven`t wax in a few years. They are barely noticeable. I`m not sure if that`s because of the waxing or the genes, but I like to think the extra effort paid off. Now, I wonder what would happen if I started to wax my eyebrows ….
