Ha, I just noticed this thread. Its kind of ironic because I just had my girlfriend wax my happy trail and upper chest. WAYYYYYY better than shaving, it grows back tooo quick. With waxing it takes a couple weeks minimum.
Here is a little story about the first time I decided to shave my legs:
So, one night at about 11:30 at night I decided to take my Gilette Mach 3 razor and shave my legs. I start on my shins and work my way around to my calfs. Before I can even finish my lower leg the razor goes dull. Luckily I have a few lying around, so I slap another one on. I finish my lower leg and begin doing my upper leg. By the time I finish one leg I am exhausted, so I take a little break. I dry off and go out into the living room to see what time it is. I look at the clock and it is almost 1 in the morning!!! So I am like damn.... What do I do. I am standing here at 1 in the morning, with one leg shaved, feeling embaressed and at the same time stressed out because all I want to do is go to bed, but I can't because I can't go to school tomorow with one shaved leg.
I bet all of you are thinking that I should just wear pants. I wish it were that easy, you see, summer is approaching and I live in Socal and the days get mighty hot. To top it off I have track practice during the hottest part of the day so wearing pants all day is absolutely out of the question.
All of this contemplating takes about 10 mins, which makes me feel even more tired and more frustrated. So I run back into the bathroom, jump into the tub, and I start to shave my other leg. Once again I dull another head and I am left with my last one.
I am finally almost finished and the blade is dull this time, but I don't have another blade so I keep on going. By the very end the blade is so dull I am literally pulling hairs out of my leg.
I finally finish and when I check the clock again to see what time it is, its 3 in the morning.
If there is one thing I have learned from shaving your legs is to not do it. It takes way too much time, costs too much money, and worst of all, if you are naturally fair complected, you end up with legs identical to Powder's!
I will never shave anything besides my head again.
