I can’t afford to wax every place on my body where I don’t want hair. So I combine waxing some, shaving others, and ignoring the rest. If I could afford it, I’d wax everything I currently shave and then some, but I’d still pluck my eyebrows- so theraputic. I’m curious about doper women’s opinions.
Amen! Damned near everything below my neck would be gone. I don’t mind my arm hair, because it’s not particularly dark and thick, and I’d leave some pubic hair (in a fancy design, I’m sure) to avoid being completely bald (did that once - never again!). But the rest would be history. Including the hairs on my toes. Eeeeeeeeewwwwww!
hijack: My gf and I noticed a woman who works at a local grocery store and has a very full, dark 'stache. Kinda like Sam Elliot in The Big Lebowski. We discussed reasons why she would choose not to wax/bleach/shave/other. Are there any real reasons, assuming she is not smack-dab in the middle of a sex change?
Uhh, and why doesn’t she have a nose job and a chin job and an eyelid lift and liposuction while she’s at it? And dye her hair? And get new boobs? You know, people aren’t on this earth to conform to your standards of beauty. I’d have more to say if this were a different forum.
I’d get laser hair removal on the pits, legs, and bikini line/more down below. Not total though down there. To never have to shave again, no razor burn, no bumps, man it would be wonderful.
Ummm…there is a ton of difference between elective plastic surgery (which I generally would agree with you about) and coming to work with accumulated toast crumbs under your nose. Beauty, schmooty, there is no way her 'stache is even comfortable. But I will back out at this point.
Affirmative. And bottom-painted. And varnished. Not to mention the expensive accessories. It’s not for nothing that they’re considered female in gender.
Maybe she was growing out her pelt a bit for a really satisfying wax. Those small ingrowns can be a real b*tch. It’s usually why I let my eyebrows grow in a bit once in a while…that way you don’t get that overplucked/overwaxed look. If you’re a swarthy pelt this tactic is even more critical.
My hair grows back so quickly that if I went to a salon, it would be like making double car payments just to get my legs done. I’ve only just now allowed myself the luxury of salon hair cuts, so I just do not see myself ever getting it done by someone else, even if I hit the lotto. Besides, doing it at home I can work out my hate on it personally. It’s a battle, really.
So waxing is a home activity for me. In fact, tonight on my list of entertainments, I am going to wax from my toes to my eyebrows and watch a movie. Cost: $10.99 (my thanks go out to a certain person in this thread - you know who you are!).
I would pay out the ass for electrolysis though, or laser if it was actually certain to work.
