why shave???
the hair is there for a reason

I was just ready for a change - I didn't shave for ten years
I feel like at this point, I've gotten past the social pressures I quit shaving to overcome, and I do feel like this was a choice I made rather than it feeling like an obligation.

I am unsure if I'll remove my armpit hair tho, I kind of like it

return it if you can and invest in an ipl if you can
way less painful and way more useful (also way more expensive) but it’ll do wonders to keeping hairs away forever

I went with a cheap epilator because I am not totally sold on the idea of being hairless lol
I don't wanna invest a whole lot in something I may not use often

ah yea understandable
epilators hurt mad though gl

I have a pretty high tolerance for pain but not THIS high lololol
I will say even it was easier this time tho, especially going back over parts I missed.
the thighs are brutal though! and I think it's because I'm a bigger girl, and it's hard to pull that skin tight (it actually got stuck in the roller for a second! but the machine stopped itself so I didn't get hurt)

I heard hair grows back thinner over time, and honestly I may even just be happy with thinner hair in the long run lol
like, in the summer I could be butt ass naked and my legs will SWEAT from how THICK the hair is

I used to remove my hair with an epilator for a long time and it never grew thinner for me but it may depend on the person
you deserve a medal for doing your thighs because that was a hell i entered once and couldnt bring myself back into

oh they aren't done! lol but I'm getting there
I actually legit had to give the whole leg and thigh a buzzcut because it was too long for the epilator lol
thankfully my machine came with a little electric razor attachment
