Ladies (or men):

How old were you when you started shaving or trimming your pussy (or cock)? Who got you into it? What "pattern" -if you will - is your current pubic configuration.
 
I was 18 the first time I shaved. It was my girlfriend who got me into it. She shaved her pussy to make it easier to eat her out. So I shaved my pubic area as well.

My current 'pattern' is completely bald.
 
I've tried shaving before (sometime in late teenage years, 16 or 17), but it itched horribly afterwards, so I said fuck that! But this year (age 20), I've started using depilatory cream, leaving a little in the middle so I don't feel like a 12 year old when I look at myself in the mirror. The itching is much less problematic now, and I like the look and feel of things!
 
started when I was 22, for my girlfriends sake and ive kept doing it despite her lack of interest in that area of myself because it feels sweet being smooth. figure if shes not going to take advantage of me, I may as well make myself feel sexy without her
 
Around 15 or 16,I shaved them completely off and loved it.I've carried on,and now shave my legs,under arms.etc.
 
I was 13 when I shaved down there for the first time. It was my idea, and I shaved it all off. Even since then, I usually shave my balls and shaft whenever the mood strikes me.

Right now, I'm trying a new style. In addition to my balls and shaft, I also shaved off the area directly above my cock (kinda like an inverse soul patch). So the only hair left, which is trimmed, is a patch on the top-left and a patch on the top-right. It looked weird at first, but it's starting to grow on me.

Oh, and I shave my butt crack because it's nicer that way, plus it makes wiping a whole lot easier. I don't need any ornaments hanging around down there. :D
 
I've shaved a lot of ways over the years. From no shave at all, to fully shaved, to landing strip, to bikini trim and back and forth.

About 9 years ago, I said to heck with it, and have kept the hair around my labia shaved off, and kept the growth above intact, trimmed just enough to fit inside a modest swimsuit.

It works for us, hubby likes pubes, and I like not getting those hairs pulled closer to the sensitive parts when we play.
 
Wow! What a timely post! I just shaved for the first time last week- hubby's birthday request. I am not employed right now (stay at home with wee one) and the price for this "gift" was right! Anyway, now I'm wondering about the maintenance and if I should keep it up...

Travel, what type of depilatory do you use? Is it made specially for that area or just the regular leg-type like Nair?

Right now, I've got a "landing strip" left in front because I too thought all bare might make me look like a 12 year old. Anyway, guys what's your opinion? Strips, patterns, bald? What's your preference?
 
I prefer to see a landing strip or a bikini trim. That way I'm not going to be constantly spitting out hairs and I don't feel like a pedophile. In return I keep my scrotum shaved clean and the surroundings well trimmed.

I decided to do this on my own when I was about 20, I figured that if I prefered to lick and suck bare pussy skin, maybe she would like the same. No complaints yet!
 
bare pussy is best pussy!
MY GF 's is always shaved, and I shave my balls and shaft, sometimes above and ass crack too
 
I've been trimming my pussy since at least high school,
and that mostly occurred at first during the summertime
when the pubic hairs would peek out from my swimsuit
at the crotch. I still trim my pussy :)

I've shaved it before but the last time I shaved it
I wound up w/ a bad ingrown hair (I was so scared
that I thought it was something else!) and had to
antibiotics to get rid of the infection...ughhhhhhh so
ever since that time I haven't shaved it.

Trimming is the way to go :)

:rose:
 
All over the map

I'm all over the map. When I was in 6th grade, I was the early bloomer. So in our first "family life" class, I was the kid who asked the anonymous question "is it ok to cut your pubic hair?" LOL

I've rocked the "low fro", trimmed into a buzz cut, shaved off (ingrown hairs are a bitch)... everything but wax. I'd like to try a wax, but am pretty chicken of some bad results.

Any ladies out there with tips for my first waxing? I burn easily, to the point of blistering getting my eyebrows waxed. Tips would be greatly appreciated.
 
I first starting getting down there hair when I was like 13... and I plucked it out with tweezers, lol. And I've been doing that ever since. I either pluck it or wax it. I hate the stubble I get from shaving :mad:. Usually I'm either completely bare or I leave the little 'landing strip' and trim that...
 
I too am a wax fan. I find that most guys cannot really handle the waxing though lol.

I like to suggest to guys that they get their pubes waxed... just for the horrified and pained expression that most often flitters across their faces. :devil: Like they actually live through the waxing process for a few minutes before being drawn back to reality, lol.

I dunno... I like getting my everythings waxed... tis relaxing for me.
 
I dunno if I'd go as far as to say that it is relaxing (not as much a masochist) but it doesn't hurt as bad as everyone seems to make it out. A slight pinch, perhaps. I got my first wax deal when I was 18...and will never go back :p
 
My first time doing that was in HS...I'm pretty sure it was senior year...(so 1999-2000 sometime). Then-BF had asked me to do it and I had shaved everything...he liked it but it itched way too much for me!

But I did like the feel of it so I kept on doing it. Back then, I just shaved the lips.

Now, on a request for last bf, I shave a bit higher (past the clit for easier access and less hair in teeth) and on the top sides....now there's just a small patch about a cm above my slit.

I recently hadn't shaved down there for about 4 months and when I went back it was just too "nasty" for me. I'd gotten so used to being smooth. Now, I'm definately going to keep up with it again...even though I'm not currently with anyone, I do it for me. :rose:

I vote you make a new thread concerning the placement of this one... ;)

SkyyAngel... have you ever tried waxing, or do you just typically shave? It's much less 'itchy' if you wax...
 
No I haven't tried waxing...I can't do that sort of thing myself and I can barely stand to do my eyebrows.

Plus, most of the places that do waxing around here either don't do "down there" or wouldn't do of much of it as I like to be done. LOL.

Usually, if I keep the maintenance up it doesn't itch at all...it's only when I let it grow out a bit.
 
OK, I have a question and this thread is a great place to ask so kudos for starting it:

I shave all but the "landing strip" but would really like to get a wax. How does this happen? I have only ever had my eyebrows waxed. If I go in for a bikini wax, what actually happens? What can I expect? How much area is waxed? Does this include the anal area or is this something I need to continue to do myself?

I honestly have no clue how any of these things work as I am not the salon-type woman. I want to have it done but have no idea what is proper to ask or expect. And I guess the biggest question I have: does anyone ever get aroused when being waxed by a professional? I just cannot imagine having anyone (man or woman) pay all that attention to that area of my body and not get aroused from it. How do you handle that?
 
I get aroused shaving myself. Or when someone else does it for me...although that only happened once....wish it could happen again...he did a GREAT job...I guess it's just hard to see from up here. :rolleyes:

Oh and I know there's different kinds of "bikini waxes"...there's like brazilian...and some others I can't think of right now.

I think there was a thread here quite sometime ago....

Here's some...

I've never gotten aroused from a wax job... and I'm a very easily aroused person, lol. Like I said, tis just relaxing for me... the nice warm wax... :p

The easiest thing to do would probably be an online search for salons in your area that offer waxing. Typically if a salon does down there waxing, you can just go in and tell them how much hair removal you would prefer. I always feel very sexy after a wax, nice and soft... and the hair grows back finer/softer... so it really doesn't require much maintenance until it's time for another wax. Or, if you are like me, I pluck my hair. But I'm an odd one.
