How is best to shave this body part? For women who aren’t gymnasts or acrobats, there’s a significant line-of-sight problem involved. Are you supposed to fly blind? Phone a friend? Arrange a few mirrors just so? I see how this could be a tiring task.
I’m late to this party. I don’t have much leg hair, so I only shave once a month in the summer. Same with armpits because I don’t care about that hair. I don’t walk around with my arms up and I find the hair catches the sweat. But this nood seems that it would be great for the surrounding vulva area which definitely needs maintenance weekly, but I’m too lazy to maintain. Did you try it? This is only the second post I’ve read from you?
So funny! I rarely shave. I have had waxing when I was young but can't bare the pain now and to be honest can't be assed. I have patches of bare skin and patches of quite long hairy skin. I will shave armpits and legs in the summer if it's warm enough for skirts, shorts or vest wearing. And I am totally with you in terms of already having enough to deal with with chronic symptoms! I do remember deciding during my last and fourth pregnancy not to colour my hair anymore. It's a blessed relief now. I am so glad my mum, who has always worn make-up and nail varnish, suggested I only wear makeup for special occasions. I stuck to this and it felt like dressing up and playing. Now though I can rarely be bothered to even do that and my husband doesn't like make-up. 'Why gild the lily?' he says.
Honestly, I had SO many comments to add to this story. But then I reached the part where you said menopause can help migraines??? After that, I forgot about the body hair stuff 😂
I'm 51 and no signs of the pause yet but if this migraine thing is true it would be a miracle!

Haha, I have not tried the nood, I’m not brave enough! I have many posts, you can browse them all at oopsmybrain.com. Thanks for reading!
I have the epilator and I love it! For my legs only. I’ve tried other bits and it was a firm, yikey NO
You are stronger than I am! I’ve reverted back to a razor. Haha.
Wow. You’re brave to stick with the epilator so many times. I tried it ONCE in 1993 and immediately threw it at the wall, never to use it again.
FWIW, I have given up on it entirely at this point. But I haven’t gone back to shaving either so now I’m just a gorilla 🦍
You can always braid it when you’re feeling fancy
This is an EXCELLENT idea. This would make my leg hair look nicer than my head hair!

I suppose I am fortunate to live in a place where it’s rarely too warm. Pants year round!
Ha ha.... I love the sun too muc for that!

This is what I’ve heard! Your mileage may vary.
