i shave it all off sometimes... well... on two occasions now lol. i actually prefer it when it is about half a centemeter long. so its just past the prickly stage but still short. so there is SOME protection for my poor parts rubbing on the seams of my jeans lol. i've been contemplating using my epilady to tidy up the edges. perhaps doing more than just the edges quite gradually over time... but i'm a little worried about lumps and bumps and ingrown hairs. it does a good job on my armpits but i do need to be careful about pulling the skin really taught or it munches up my armpit in the tweezers :-( wouldn't want that happening down there :-(

this is above the waist but i actually got up the courage to epilate my arms the other day. mostly because of of the girls from work was saying that she didn't want to take her jumper off because she needed to wax her arms. so we talked about hair removal on arms and seems more women do that than i had thought... i've always been really self conscious about the long, fine hair on my arms. didn't want to shave, though, because people quite often touch my arms. epilation worked pretty well except... i have to be careful to remember not to scratch my arms (they do feel a little itchy) otherwise... my arms break out in bumps all over. sigh. no perfect solution, i guess...
