I’ve tried shaving my leg hair a few times now, but it takes an hour or two just to get back with stubble within roughly two to three days at most. Also for some reason my skin just can’t help get irritated, no matter how much I exfoliate, apply lotion afterwards, all that stuff. Because of this, I’ve been looking into...
I’d suggest trying waxing - as it’s legs I think you would be able to learn how to do that yourself eventually. It’s the one thing that has worked for me somewhat reliably for my arm pits (long story), though I haven’t tried legs as I don’t need to.
My wife has the Braun silk epil and we have the Braun IPL. Tried both for arm pits and lower back (…I’m a hairy man, not even gonna bother with other parts, just those that I need/wanted to try), and whilst the combination of the two lasted a bit longer than shaving, the results were still not as good as waxing. Also I find wax a bit more bearable to endure than epilators, but that would probably change with time.
Another upside is that not all the hair grow back, it’s gradual, and they are softer.
Downside is that you’ll have to figure out what works for you if you go down that road. We ordered a little heater of Amazon and found some wax pellets there too after the batch that came with heater ran out. None of the wax strips (wax on backing paper) worked for me though and they would end up being a bit pricey in comparison, but they may be ok for legs? And for me the major downside was that I can’t really do my arm pits on my own with the hot wax, so wife does it for me.
Ended up installing newpipe (or other app of your choice) and set it as the default app for YouTube video links 🤷 Edit: and of course you can set it as default for other sites, including peertube
There’s also the option of “collection/storagr places” by the border - businesses that provide you with US shipping address and hold your parcel, usually at least for few days up to a month or two for free…of course the downside is that you have to live near the border and whatever you want to order and collect has to be worth the hassle for you to go across the border
A whole bunch of these self proclaimed “communists” are supporting trump/trumpism…started with unfunny memes and well, I think we can all guess where they’re all going to end up.
The funniest part is arguing about current “forms” of communism and capitalism and not realizing that it’s just the same shit from different assholes and a far cry from either.
Epilator recommendations?
