Good morning! Wow , just reading this I am learning so much! But I can tell of my experiences-ick. Use Nair waxing strips on my eyebrows-really works well and gets a great line but i often have red burning bumps afterwards. I think it burns my skin. I like being natural on my pits but Daddy likes everything smooth so i shave but waxed a few times and like the smooth feeling. Also, being of dark skin, the stubble did leave such a dark shadow when it did start to grow in. I hate that shadow. sometiems ended up plucking the pit hairs as well...when I was feeling very bored and sad. Great way to punish yourself! ::smiles:: Shave my legs with razor and shaving gel, not soap. Triple blade-the Venus works great. Tried Nads but was messy and didn't take the hair off. Nads worked on the pits though pretty well. As for bikini area-ick, i usually shave but get bumps and ingrowns on the bikini area. When it does grow back, I often feel like I have a porcupine caught between my legs. Tried Nads there but were messy and didn't take alot off. I will go get waxed at the salon this winter sometime when I get my nerve up. Seems to be the way to go -smoother, les messy, less time involved. Worth the cost is you get someone who is good, I think. I have a pretty low pain threshold but since having my kids, I can handle alot. I think the embarrassment is what is holding me back really. In the meantime, gonna switch to cortisone cream instead of baby oil for shaving afterwards...try that instead. And I use those Noxema bikini razors-use them twice and throw away. Comes 3 in a pack for $2 and they are tiny. Take care and good luck! Love, Zechriel [sm=runaway.gif]
