Similar to the "shaving - ouch" thread.

I really do want to be free of hair in the below region, but nothing seems to work. If I shave, no matter how well or what kind of razor I use (even electirc ones), it always ends up not completly smooth, and it will be red, itchy and bumpy. If I use a hair removal creme, it will burn my skin, and then cause it to be red and bumpy and itchy. If I get it waxed, it turns red, bumpy and itchy, and around the hair folocules, it bleads. Are there any other way to get rid of hair there? Thanks

this sounds exactly like mine, lol. i have actually tried the tweezer thing and it doesn't hurt *that* much but of course it would take ages to do it all and i've never got that far... ie by the time i finished i'd have to start again.

what exactly does that involve? does it hurt?:\

i don't know if it hurts, but it works by sending a tiny electric current down each hair so it erm, fries the root i suppose; anyway it removes it and it doesn't grow back.
