  • LOL - i have just read back through the thread and you lot crack me up!!!!

    I am a do what i feel like type of girl - low maintainance if you like. I shave my legs when they get stubbly, shave my armpits regularly but my arms are not getting shaved at all - far too much work!!! And my 'foof' well that is kept neat and low and when i fancy i'll shave it all off (usually throughout summer) - but it's all my pref. And i'm stubborn, if hubby ever told me to shave it all off i'd prob wind him up by leaving it to grow for a few weeks...hahahaha! All in good spirit of course, lol!

    But i must admit i don't miss the stubble itch at all now i have switched to the gillete trimmer....might stick to it from now on :D

    Sanitary? That's what bathing was invented to deal with and as for sweating in the summer, that is precisely why we evolved with coarse hair in the downstairs department. I feel much less comfortable in the hot weather once I've had a tidy-up until I gt used to it. And please, put me out of my misery: what in Dickens' name are snatchworms? Or is this a new word for something I might be familiar with to do with what goes on in the bathroom? Or rather, wouldn't if one was a bit more vigilant and dainty?

    There is a link to the defination on urban dictionary, I'd of posted it but it's a bit crude. Basically it's what occurs when after having a wee, the toilet roll breaks off into a sausage (worm) type shape and gets entangled in the nether regions. When that area is a bit hairy, your more at risk of a snatch worm attack :)

    Yeah of course washing down below keeps you clean, it's just preference is all, I personally find it cleaner. That's all.

    I think I might save up extremely slowly for it lol as permanent hair removal would be fab and save so much time in the mornings!

  • Hi guys, glad to see you discussing Boots Smooth Skin! It does indeed offer permanent hair removal, using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology. You can use it at home and can expect to see results in about 6 to 12 weeks. So if you start using it now you can be hair-free in time for summer!

    Yes, £250 is a lot of money, but if you compare it to the cost of salon treatments, or the ongoing cost and hassle of shaving, waxing, etc, which all ends up adding up, it works out as a good investment.

    Boots Smooth Skin has had tons of great reviews - check out Boots.com to see for yourself! Visit boots.com and search for 'Boots Smooth Skin'.

    Give me a shout if you have any questions about Boots Smooth Skin - happy to help!

    Very norty Boots indeed. Also fails to mention that new hair follicles appear all the time so you are never going to be free of this tiresome chore.

    Erm, you could always try the gillete razor with integrated trimmer - the one on the ad where the ladies walk past the bushes and they become neat, lol...

    I always though that they should have added a bush with just a few bare branches sticking out and no leaves :)

    Oh my word :eek: my mind was working overtime as to what these little creatures might be. I had been wondering if I may have been a victim of this terrible worm !!! all the questions spinning around my head like "do they hurt" and "how do you know if you have them" well it's all clear now, the only certain way not to catch these Snatchworms is not to use loo roll eeeeerr.... is it a risk worth taking :exclamati??

    This thread has given me such a giggle, thanks :rotfl:
