I haven't shaved my legs in months. :blush: At least 5 months, actually.
I'm cursed with having to shave every day or I get terrible razor burn so as soon as the weather cools down and I won't be wearing shorts anymore I stop shaving. It saves me time, water (back to 5 minute showers) and money (razors are bloody expensive!).
This weekend is supposed to be hot which means that I have to start shaving again. Too bad. I was enjoying my freedom... :P

Shaving sucks! It doesn't matter how often I shave I get bumps and you're right razors are freaking expensive! I can't go without shaving because the hair drives me crazy but I know many women who do that!

When I lived in BC (hippy central) I didn't shave for years. It was fantastic. Once the sun hit my legs it bleached the hair and you couldn't tell it was there. I came back to Ottawa a few times and no one noticed unless I told them. I told my dad and I thought he was going to lose his mind... :lol:

HAHAHAHA Nice! I shave less during the winter, too. I just can't justify taking the time...and usually I'm just relaxing in the shower.
So...how long is your leg hair?? An inch?

:lol: Well, I don't shave much in the winter either. Luckily my leg hair doesn't grow super fast AND it's blond, so I don't have to shave every day. It's been 4 or 5 days and they look fine.

Wow I can't do it. It itches. The only time I went a long time was when Eli was really little and not sleeping. At that point I didn't care as long as I was clean. LOL

Well, seeing as I've never actually measured the length of my leg hair :lol: I just checked and it's long. Not quite an inch but close. That's gross. Sorry ladies... :blush:

:lol: I love it! I can only take so much until it gets on my nerves, but I am always a bit lax in winter too!

FTR - Once the hair gets past a certain length it doesn't itch anymore. It's kinda fuzzy... ;)
We're heading for warm weather today and tomorrow so I caved in and shaved. It feels odd... :P

Wow that's a long time! :P I tried to not shave my legs once because I was going to get them waxed...I couldn't stand it and had to shave.
When dh was deployed I did go weeks without shaving though. :P

He's used to it now. :p I do it every year and we've been together for almost 12 years. Although depending on how romantic I feel I might shave for him. :whistle:

Can I join the club Elaine?!?! :blush: Yep, its been about 2 months I think for me, this is the longest that I have ever gone without shaving but in my defense, I seriously just don't have the time. Today is the first day in weeks that I have a day off and I have tons of house work do to, I've been working 7 days a week, no fun. Though baby making time is coming around the corner and I told DH that I was going to go super clean everywhere if you catch my drift. :blush:

I so badly want to get the vajayjay and back door area done. I started to do it for my armpits but didn't follow through because I ended up pg with Sara, oh well. DH said as soon as we get some money he would have my entire body done if he can. :P

I would LOVE to have my legs done, but didn't do it. My vajajay area is going to be allllllll free (if you kwim).
I hate dealing with shaving so much. I just know that pregnancy hormones jacks it all up!
