Just curious, cause I was at a doctors appt today getting an ultrasounds and they do the usual thing where they tuck the towel into your pants and pull them down a little off your waist. And at first I got a little self conscious cause I honestly rarely shave my vagina lol maybe like a 2 times a month. And then I was like actually she might see that more than I think and then I wondered what the norm is for shaving down there. I'm curious if I'm in the minority. š¤·āāļø

Whenever I have the energy and time to do so.. so like once every 3 months.

Whenever I feel like it tbh š

Iām lasered. Brazilian and underarms. When I did shave I shaved like twice a week. Glad I donāt have to anymore coz I hated the upkeep and I like it bare. I didnāt shave for long before I got waxed anyway, got waxed for years and then got laser.

I feel that! Hahhahaa I hardly ever

Itās full bush summer baby.

I donāt. Ever.

I never shave or wax, too much work.
But Iāll say this, as pregnancy goes on youāre probably not going to be able to, too hard to reach. And someone will be all up in your business when you give birth. At that point caring is not going to matter. Even if youāre shaved, you will basically pee and poo yourself as labour goes on, unless you have a c section.

Once when I was 15. Never again lol

Never! Sometimes Iāll trim it, but I hate that it only feels and looks nice for a day. Plus, I hate shaving my legs so Iām not adding more annoying places to shave. Theyāve seen it all so donāt worry about it!

Never shave, I use a hair trimmer to trim it down every now and then.

I wax every 6-8 weeks

I probably shave 1-2 a week

I get terrible ingrowns but I do shave once every two weeks. I get super itchy and uncomfortable when I donāt. Also maybe tmi but I have to have like the hairiest ass crack ever so I have to keep up on that.

I would switch to waxing. Itās a game changer.

As an ultrasound tech, hair or no hair, doesnāt matter to us! Just an FYI :) donāt feel self conscious.

Special occasions. Which are rare š

I shave at least once a week but there's plenty of women that don't. They see everything so there's no need to be ashamed of anything

Everyday I hate the feeling of hair, and hate feeling prickly

Never. I love the full bush!

Only when im getting some vitamin D š ! other than that Im not shaving/ waxing lol

Used to do it daily before having my baby. Now twice a week as baby is 5 months and I usually only get a few mins each morning to shower so itās just the basics. But twice a week, I get a full maintenance shower lol

I wax once a month

I use an electric trimmer once itās at a certain length. I donāt like it bare though I feel extra naked and exposed lmao

Trim every 4-8 weeks

Just shaved after like 6 months š it use to be every week but being 34 weeks pregnant I just cannot itās too much š«

every 4 days lmao otherwise it gets way too itchy š„“

Daily.

Iād be sooo itchy if I shaved. I prefer waxing and when I was pregnant with my second I didnāt reallly keep up with it so I was hairy I donāt think it matters much āŗļø

For those of you shaving daily or multiple times a week Iām super curious what razors youāre using because I would be torn to shreds and bumps all over if I didnāt let it grow out a little before shaving again š

Lol I cannot reach now ,now it's just a trim if I'm lucky šš

I donāt shave, I get waxed once a month and itās amazing!

Never š
Just a trim every couple months

I'll periodically shave around the perimeter so it looks a little nicer š but usually keep the rest as is or trim it down a bit

Don't shave then either. When I do swimming I wear long shorts because I absolutely cannot stand though chaffing
And it's been many years since I've worn sexy lingerie haha

they probably donāt. Thatās why they donāt shave lol

what a bold assumption. You can trim the hair, wear bottoms that are more covering, or just let your body exist as it is. Body hair really isnāt some shameful thing we need to hide away if we donāt want to.

Coura and Kat above answered her question. They wear shorts. They donāt wear bikini-revealing swimwear. I wasnāt assuming. I was replying after reading 2 replies lol. And Coura hasnāt worn sexy lingerie for years. Whoās assuming??

For the record, back when I wore bikinis and lingerie, I didn't shave then either š¤
Just a little trim around the edges so it didn't stick out in the bikini (partner had to deal with seeing hair)

sorry! I totally misread that. I thought you meant that they donāt wear lingerie or swim. I see what youāre saying now. Again, so sorry!

š¤·āāļø I exist with hair the same way I would without it. Nobody should be heavily focused on my pubic area

i prefer to keep all my body hair. when I go swimming I wear a regular bathing suit. Idk if pubic hair is visible. probably?? My lingerie is still sexy with body hair. My husband thinks itās sexier actually lol I feel feminine with body hair since it is naturally grown by my body. When I had a c section the nurses shaved EVERYTHING and I hated how it looked and felt. Couldnāt wait for it to grow back I felt naked lol

Tried shaving once and aside from being indescribably uncomfortable, the look of it just made me think of homer Simpson and I hated it š
Edit: Also that's wild they shaved everything for C section š±
They shaved maybe an inch line for my C section
