Im in the process now, taking a break! I trim it as short as I can get it with a buzzer, then shave it off!

If you're a guy, then trim your hair down to about 0.5-1 inch, and then get it waxed off - use tweezers to get out any stubborn hair after you've waxed. Get all this done a few days or the start of the week before your competition.

Or, you could just trim it right down and then shave. Really, it's up to you. Waxing/tweezing will do a better job than shaving, since the hair will probably grow back very fast, and you'll have stubble the next day after shaving, which would mean having to do it on the day of competition, just so you know.

Body groove for initial, then a real razor for the smaller hair, but definately trim first, otherwise body groove will rip your hair out.
 
Lather up in the bath tub, sit in it with some oil. I used olive oil. And then go to town. Have fun cleaning though.

When i was done after my first full body shave it looked like an animal exploded from all the hair and blood in the bathroom.
 
Best way I have found is to use nair like 2 weeks before the show, as this will irritate the skin and make you puffy.... Then 2 days before the show before your first application of pro tan, shave again.... then don't shave again till after the show. Everytime you shave , you irritate the skin and will cause you to hold water under the skin...your last shaving should be done at least 2 days before the show depending on how fast your hair grows.
 
In my experience, nair began burning my skin before it began burning my hairs off; My hair is thick.
Razor lasts me a day before the hairs begin pricking out again, wax does the best job imo. Just make sure to pull fast if your doing it on your own!

Did you use nair for men? I left that stuff on for a long time and it didnt burn.
 
No, I'd used regular nair before they made nair for men lol :p it left my skin irritated, maybe the men one works better for our thicker hair, :)
 
I like to use a womens razor and non-scented aloe vera shave gel. "Make sure" you don't get a scented gel as it may irritate the hell out of your skin. I always keep bodyhair well kept, so if ou don't...you will want to buzz down first and then go to work! Take your time around elbows, ankles etc and enjoy how weird clothes feel on your baby smooth skin.
 
Dude I STILL haven't found a good way to shave, well at least in THAT particular area I am a male, I have used razor, Norelco, but it was a beard trimmer with a different foil, now I have read about Norelco's body hair trimmer I read it supposed to be really good
