> Do you just take haircutting scissors and hack away?

Er, yes. Though I'm actually using good quality stationary scissors. You know, for cutting paper. I am jolly careful, though, I can imagine what LMO accidentally did (LMAO OW!!!!!).

I'm actually reminiscing, somewhat. I just left mine for ages but then had this drunken discussion at a party (with European guys admittedly) and they all voted for all off and said that that was their default too (so they werne't sexist about that at all). Well... They said they let theirs grow, actually, but if they were keen on someone then they would start shaving it all off.

So... I shaved mine off (after the party) for fun. Itchy... But about a week... Two weeks... Three weeks... For about a month and a half I was VERY happy with it. It IS hard to trim it evenly. I don't want to use clippers because they make a noise... I'm embarrassed enough about the noise my epilator makes (sounds like an extremely loud vibrator).

So... Shave it off and let it grow a bit and round and round we go. Sigh. I wish it would just fall off already.
