Do you wax your legs or shave them? I shave mine because I think it hurts when you take the wax off.

Definatly use a depilitory (sp?) cream. It is easy and painless and you don't have to do it too often. I can't imagine ripped all my hair out by the roots with waxing.

I have only waxed once successfully. I went to have it done, and it wasn't too bad. Any time I tried to do it myself I couldn't do more than one strip. So, I stick with shaving.

For eyebrows I prefer waxing. If the skin is held right it doesnt hurt anymore than taking a bandage off. For legs I just use my electric razor. Regular razors under the arms leave a razor burn that hurts.

So what do you use to shave your arm pits?

I tried nair, but i had a bad reaction from it. It made my legs break out something awful...so not attractive. I wish I could use it though, it'd be much easier than waxing

I had the same problem. Yes all those red blotchy spots just dont look too pretty.

I prefer to wax simply because I don't have to do it as frequently as shaving. I just don't have time to shave my legs every day- I hate the stubble. And it did hurt to wax at first, but then my legs got used to it.

I just cant imagine doing your whole legs with wax. I just couldnt get past the first tug and I was done. I guess your legs would get accustomed to it after awhile.

I love waxing because I think it feels really good, but recently I don't have the extra money to get it done so I'm stuck with shaving.

I guess maybe you got used to the pain and that is why it doenst hurt.

Shave them. It's not the pain of waxing it's the redness that goes with it that gets me.

I've tried nair but my legs break out from it. It sounded so simple but I couldnt use it.

I shave, I'm not a fan of waxing, I couldn't be bothered waiting for the hair to grow long enough. I used to have an epilator but it was so painful and would take ages to do each leg!
