I don't trim and I don't shave, since I have very thick hair which is very uncomfortable when it grows back. But it is getting so long that I am getting tired of it getting tangled in my lips, etc. So I was wondering if anyone out there had any advice about trimming. How short do you trim? Do you cut the hair while wet or while dry? Do you use conditioner? Those of you who aren't all that sexually active, do you stop grooming in the winter? And does anyone else here just let it all grow out naturally or am I the only throwback in here? Sorry if these questions seem a bit silly but I really don't know and I'd love to be able to have shorter pubes (its between an inch and a half to almost 2 inches long in some places) - but without them poking thru my panties. I don't have the funds to do a brazilian or a bikini right now so don't suggest those pls.I'd also like to know, do any other women here have the "hair going down the thigh" problem? I am starting to feel like the only woman who is this hairy. Thanks...

A Question About Trimming
-
There are plenty of women who have the hairy gene. You're not alone.
-
I suppose, but it seems hard to believe I'm not when no one even wants to cop to it enough to answer my question.
-
What I do is that i wax most of it off, but the rest I CAREFULLY trim with scissors. I find that it doesn't make much of a diff if it's wet or dry, but wet is a bit easier, plus you can just let the hairs go down the drain. What I do is that I pinch a bit of hair, stretch it out, and cut it so it becomes about half a cm. Just keep going around and doing that untill it's all even. Just be really carefull not to cut skin! That's why I recommend scissors that have dull points, so they dont poke. Now, I don't use conditioner or anything, just soap it up when I wash my vulva. By the way, you can buy home brazillian/bikini kits that are quite affordable, though i don't know about waxing the WHOLE thing, I just wax the top and the bikini lines.Overall, you shouldn't be worried because a lot of women's pubes can get out of control with out any care. My advice: keep em short and wax the bikini lines. It's simple, and effective.

Thanks JenJen - just wanted to know - how short do you trim it? Quarter inch? As close to the skin as possible? Does it poke through your underwear (the one time I trimmed this happened)? Thanks again.
-
Hehe, yea it can poke out through the undies sometimes but there's not much you can do about that, plus its not a big deal at all. I usually trim it to about a quarter of an inch so between this ___ and this ____ .
-
I used to trim shorter and shorter until I just got tired of trimming and my girlfriend suggest I just shave it. Once I shaved it, I liked the way it felt so much I never let it grow back. I try to shave at least every other day because my hair grows back so fast...the only downfall is that once it starts growing back it gets itchy There is nothing you can do about the poking outside of your undies thing...with hair that coarse down there..it sticks straight out and will protrude through your panties which there is nothing wrong with If you don't mind the shaving often I would suggest that..it feels cleaner and neater
-
I tried trimming a year or two ago, didnt really see the point so I shave now, I did find it being wet was easier. But waxing... uhhh owwww, you think that the professionals doing it hurts well doing it at home is even worse plus if you place wax in the wrong spots or it drips or what not sometime you can rip off very very sensitive skin, if you tried waxing make sure that you are extremely careful.
-
I've waxed but not the labia, just the top part...it hurts but I get used to the pain, plus there is no itching when the hair grows back, and it takes longer for the hair to grow back.
-
Thanks JenJen and others for answering my question. :smile:
-
> plus there is no itching when the hair grows back
Because it grows back with a nice, soft, tapered tip, rather than a sharp edge.
-
True. It's unfortunate that its both pricey and a horrible ordeal. I think if a guy ever asked me to take it all off I'd ask him to do the same. It's only fair!
-
Sounds fair to me. I'm not sure I could handle the pain.
-
Well if he did it for me... I'd be sure to make it worth his while...
-
Moo!

Something in the way she moos...attracts me like no udder lover...
[Trivia corner: That was about Patty Boyd, bovine version.]
-
I love that George Harrison song... it's too bad Eric Clapton stole her away and wrote Wonderful Tonight. Between the fingers of two guitar greats... she must be one. happy. woman.
-
Jeeez, I'm impressed! Apparently George Harrison held no grudge against Eric Clapton.Wasn't Clapton playing guitar on While My Guitar Gently Weeps?
-
Yes, he did! He later came back and contributed a few licks on Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" album. I never did understand how they didn't hung up on the Boyd thing at all. Weird. That's rock genius for ya.
