my mom lost her leg and arm hair when she went through chemo 8 years ago and it never came back. thankfully her eybrows and eyelashes did!

My friend JT did that, except he left a mini-mohawk shaped like an arrow on top of his head

With the exception of my pits (I use Caress soap on those), I use this stuff with a razor to shave all of my shaveables.
A little goes a long way and it smells sooooo yummy!!

I haven't touched mine (legs, that is... not husband or any other things mentioned here)
since MOTM 2006. Guess I've got one day to mow them before I leave for Stars...

I haven't shaved since I left FL a few weeks ago!
It's winter, so I'm the only one who knows it's there... I just I hope I don't get in an accident!

Well, I'm a euro-roadie geek cyclist, so I'd shave mine because of that.....except for the fact that I have alopecia. So I have no hair at all ANYWHERE!!!!
Made quite a bit of beer money betting girls that my legs were smoother than theirs.

I never grew any hair under my arms. Maybe I have selective alopecia.

i'm with mal. i shave in the winter or unless we are going south in the winter for vaca, then it's off to the waxer. when it's the summer i shave the lower leg and wax above the knee & "such". since it's not nearly as much to get that waxed compared to the entire leg and "such" i can afford to have it done for the summer months.
my niece does all her own waxing. underarms, brows, a bit at the lip and whatever else needs to be done.
the underarm thing hurts. i wanted to try it myself only i couldn't do the ripping part. i had to have david do it for me...
let's just say it didn't go as well as planned.

I hope so.
I'd have 'em lasered except I'm a blonde and lasers don't work on blondes. (No jokes please)
The good thing is I can go without shaving a few days and no one notices because it doesn't show.

2 of my 3 kids swim (like national level). My son used to shave everything that his tiny Speedo and cap didn't cover 2 twice a year. Until he started wearing the leg suits. My daughter hasn't shaved her legs since Christmas. Her and her other swimming friends call their legs the cats!! But she is shaving Thursday night to start a big meet on Friday. They will have a shaving party...crazy teenagers!

Oh they use that razor with the soap around it and LOTS of shaving cream that smells real fruity. I like the razor...HATE that cream.
