I used to get my eyebrows threaded in LA. It was awesome. It's starting to show up here in the mall, and I just don't know. I need to do something rightnow cause hello, yeti. From the browbone up I look the bastard child of Michael Dukakis.

I've had my lip waxed once and it hurt like a mutherfucker and I'll have to look like Sam Elliot before I do THAT again.

And I have this ONE errant chin hair that grows under my chin, but higher than my neck. I pluck it out when I remember to or when Emeline says, "Mom! Look!" and pulls on it.

My ... area ... is a mess and needs better grooming. Which will start now that it's bathsuit weather. Or, I'll buy a swimskirt and fergeddaboutit.

I shave my legs and underarms every other day.

...

I wish I were European sometimes.

My days of wearing bikinis are over. Even if I were thin again, I wouldn't. I always hated shaving the bikini area. My hair was much coarser 20 years ago, and I often got ingrown hairs. Now, less hair, and softer, means easier removal, and also less incentive to remove it. If I ever wear a swimsuit again, I'll wear boyleg bottoms or a swimskirt. My hypothetical future boyfriend will need to have a European sensibility regarding female body hair, I'm afraid.

And I have this ONE errant chin hair that grows under my chin, but higher than my neck.

I have one on my cheek. And it gets all irritated growing in so it's a constant thing trying to just find the damn hair and pluck it out once it starts growing back in. Hate.

Why is there one hair on the side of my face?

I shaved my legs from 13 to 23 and then stopped. There is hair but it is superfine. I shave my pits about every other day - more than three days and I get stinkier. I pluck my eyebrows. Bikini area... swimskirt, baybee. And yes, not wanting to shave my bikini area is one reason (of several) that I don't swim for exercise.

UGGGH. I just paid several bills (one wasn't even overdue!) and confirmed what I've been fearing but kept forgetting to deal with... apparently the EIGHTEEN PAGES of reimbursements I faxed into my FSA got lost in the ether. Y'all, that's over $2000 I was counting on getting back and could really, really use. I'll be calling tomorrow during customer service hours, but I am not confident at all (I faxed them on the deadline, 3/31). ::sigh::

Quick walk for the dog and bedtime.

I shave my legs in the summer, every couple of weeks. The hair is not thick, but since I moved to MN, I don't get tan enough for it to disappear. It's thinned considerably, something that I attribute to hypothyroidism and/or the insufficiency of the dose of synthroid I'm on. My pits have about 5 hairs each, so I don't worry much. Chin gets plucked. upper lip and eyebrows get shaved with one of those tooth brush sized shavers, whenever I notice - so maybe every couple of weeks.

Ok - I've done my Daisy Scout stuff and now I have to actually do work work. Ugh.

I've never de-haired my legs or armpits. I was in university before I realised women had armpit hait. I got none.

I can see my leg hair, but apparently other people can't. And it's really hard to feel.

I've had my brows done for special occasions--it used to be semi-regularly but I fell out of the habit. I don't mind how they look ungroomed, but cleaned up it helped make it look like I gave a fuck about my face, without me actually having to do something on a daily basis. Which meets my level of laziness tidily.

I've had bikini waxes for some of my skimpier swimsuits. Only the string bikini really needs it, I think, but it saves me wondering about it. The pain has never bothered me.

I this where I remention that I have shaved my head? Also, I liked to keep it trimmed or shaved.... *down* *there*. 'Cuz hair gross.

TMI?

I used to do the leg hair and underarms, but I haven't bothered in decades. And it wasn't marital "I don't have to bother anymore" laziness, I got tired of the bother before I met Hubby. The hair's not that dark or thick, and if someone wants to be horrified they can be. I'm not normally dancing around with my hands over my head, so it's not like I'm flashing my pits at the world, anyway.

I shave the damned hairs on my chin every week.
