Down-there hair care

Basically, I have thick pubes and I'm a girl who would like to have just a landing strip, and have the rest fairly hairless. Shaving works fine for the day, but then the regrowth kills and I get this sore red rash. Waxing really hurts and removal cream doesn't seem to work, whichever one I try. I can still feel the remaining bits of hair still in the follicle, which feels horrible and stubbly! Any advice would be MUCH appreciated!

:eek: Wouldn't plucking take forever? And be fiddly?

epilating is worse than waxing and she already said that waxing hurts... at least waxing gets it off quickly, and in one go. epilating i like a really really drawn out plcuking. eurgh. i can't even bare to epilate my legs!

Sort of reminds of the old days of Robot Wars :biggrin:

I would just go for a short trim. If you do it well it would make the hair look less thick.

Go and get it done professionally. it will still hurt, but it will be easier than you doing it yourself, and hopefuly quicker.

:ditto: I do that, but then you can't get the landing strip you want.
I would stick with waxing. Painful yes, but good results.
