What do you do for your legs? I epilate. What about you?

oh yuck, epilating looks so painful!!!!

...maybe its coz my legs are hairy
some day im gonna wax my legs.

 

[johony]

wat's epilate?

its a little device which plucks your hairs out en masse

shaving legs for guys doesn't make sense

 

[lpodnano]

epilate. fast, less painful than waxing and last longer than shaving.

agreed.

i'm pretty sure removing ur leg hair (if ur a guy) is only allowed for reasons of surgery or sport.

"I like to grow it hairy, and curly wurly.."
maybe thats because your pubes extend to your legs.

 

[efhat]

i epilate too, its actually made the hair grow back slower and sparser, so its pretty cool.

i've always wondered though, if epilating is basically tweezing, just in larger amounts, how can it grow back slower?

 

[Brontecat]

so does epilating last longer than wxing?

Time for the "I don't remove my leg hair" post. Yes, that's right. I don't because I'm south east Asian and if any of you have noticed SE Asians generally have a lot less hair. Mine is so fine and short it doesn't need any removal.

because ur pulling the entire length of the hair out from root to tip, as opposed to just cutting it off at the level of the skin.
waxing works in the same way.
The hair needs to grow the whole length between the root and skin surface before u can feel it when u epilate.

Part of the reason u can get ingrown hairs with epilation and waxing if you dont exfoliate.

EDIT: lala2, i'm 100% certain that somebody has noticed the hair.

epilating is the worst. so painful and it makes me break out in rash.
i wax when i can, but usually shave.

 

[The_highwayman]

apparently you can get these creams that u rub on ur skin before epilating and it numbs them.

 

[blue_chameleon]

I used to shave, for sport.

I wasn't keen on waxing hey.

 

[lala2]

Time for pics...

and yes, I need to moisturise my legs.

 

[laniani]

my skin is too crazy for waxing/ epilating.

if i wax/ epilate my legs i get a crazy rash which gets all gross and itchy then doesnt fully go away for 2 weeks.
so i thought i just sucked at it, and got a friend who waxes her legs to do it for me. same result.

now im tossing up whether to try out with a pro or just give up and stick with shaving. soooo over shaving.

I generally shave... Waxed once, but it's way too much effort. Used to use that cream but sometimes had a skin reaction to it.
Shaving's way easy, and my hair grows back fine and blonde and slowly anyway, so it's not a problem.

 

[gella]

yeah i shave too
cbf waxing/epilating/whatever
im actually not hairy which is awesome, so when i do shave the hairs dont even grow back thick. yay for me
