Winter shaving

[JayBird]

Yes, I have a calculated hairless journey.

I remove hair after winter ski season is over (March). I have best friends (whom I have known for ever) and I know they would notice and ask. It is not that I am concerned of their acceptance, but it is just a conversational that is not needed with these great friends of mine. These same friends I usually see in July for a summer hang at beach or lake. So with that, I get a full legs/bikini/brazalian wax in early March. Then I let it grow until late July, and do the same wax in August. This gives me a few warmer months to wear a skort or dress without leggings/stockings if I wish. I then usually do one more wax in October (just did it last week), which will last until late November or so. Then I am usual hairy for winter months and ski season. Then repeat.

I do like the clean feeling of hairless lower half. It keeps me cooler in summer time. And when I go to the lake with my wife in August afterwards, it makes being in the water so awesome (much colder).

My wife makes me shave all year round, she doesn?t like body hair on a man or woman.
Looks like I will just have to go along with her request.
It sucks lol

Instead of a full shave, I've been cutting my arms and legs hair with an electric hair cutter at the minimum length, that is about 3-5 mm. That is enough to get a more feminine view of my arms and to avoid my SO to complain about shaved legs (but they look great when using pantyhoses).

But... some months ago, I shaved my whole chest and tummy for the first time, and also my legs (I was at an hotel during a short trip and I could go to the pool in girl mode with a nice swimsuit that could hold my forms). I used to shave just the cleavage, but now I'm going full on it and I don't want to return. Unfortunately, I couldn't keep the shaved legs to keep things calm with my SO.

I shave year round. Hairless neck down. My wife thought it strange but did not object. I love the feeling and have never liked body hair. I always used my Mach 5, but since I found the Venus, I now know what a smooth shave is. I had laser on my back a few years ago, but that gets pricey.

Im in the shaved smooth year round club also. I have been smooth nose to toes for over 6 years now and plan on staying that way!

Interesting how this winter shaving is the seasonal opposite of when some of the GGs shave. Several that I know well will take the winter off from shaving, preferring to wear pants every day in the cold months. They rarely wear hosiery. Some summers, their shaving season is still long. This year, they got away with shaving quite rarely. We had three frosty days in June and the frost returned in August in out Pacific Northwest mountains.

As for me, I shave year round. I tolerate heat and cold well. I have a respectable collection of tights and hosiery to accommodate nearly every temperature. On the few coldest days of winter, I wear fleece lined leggings that look pretty convincingly like sheer hosiery.

Shaving in summer makes applying sunscreen SO MUCH easier that it's hard to underestimate. I have hated it until discovering shaving.
Nobody cared or asked (or maybe even noticed).

I’ve been shaving from the waist down for years, all year-round. At first I was a bit timid about showing my smooth legs out in public (in drab mode) but I’ve yet to have anyone comment about it. Before I began shaving I was VERY hairy and I got fed up with it and made the change. Periodically I’ll shave my chest and arms when the hair gets annoying.

I swear by the Venus 5! Gives an amazingly smooth shave...

I've been shaving almost all of my body - except for my legs! - since long before dressing was a "regular" thing for me. Just love the feeling of smoothness!

Now I'm IPL'ing my thigh/upper-leg and, when required, shaving from the knee down. This is because contrary to the experience of others who've commented I've found (at least for me) it's the most noticeable thing (and they're not even all that hairy when unshaved!).
Since my youngest son asked if I'd shaved my legs I decided I wouldn't make it a regular thing.
But yes, now it's getting colder and I've more reason to be covered up then I think it'll be more regular.

Living in FL there really is no such thing as "winter". I shave legs, chest, etc year round.

The time to shave your legs is in the summer, not the winter. You want to have smooth pretty legs in the summer when everyone can seem them in skirts or shorts.

[CDMargret]

I too would shave during the winter months. But THIS summer I kept shaving all season long and it was so wonderful. Wore shorts and the only person to notice was of course my mother. She said I don't have very hairy legs. Thanks Mom.

Always hated to shave. Had laser and love it.
