Re: Dark leg hair on light skin?

AYRT. I responded below in regards to exfoliating. Every one does have different skin, so epilation may not work for everyone.

In terms of pain, it's definitely a question of your threshold. I've only ever waxed my underarms (and bikini once--it tickled) and the pain is different. Initially, the pain is, well, painful. But after a few minutes (aside from sensitive areas, in my experience, my leg kind of grows numb to the plucking. The machine also has different speeds, so that may affect your pain level. I checked on youtube to see videos of people epilating, and it as recommended to my by an Egyptian friend and a badass Italian woman. So...for my poor hairy self (I have some Arab and Spanish blood in my veins) something that only required maybe about 30 minutes total of my time and only had to be done once every two weeks--totally worth it. And overtime you get used to the feeling so it's not even painful anymore. Besides, between actually shaving and making sure I got everything and not cutting myself (repeat every 3-4 days) this was the better option.

It's not for everyone (I guess). Check it out though, one day you may be willing to try it!

BTW, I didn't know what exfoliating really meant for my legs until I started doing this. I should still moisturize more often though. You could light a match on my legs.
