There is no correct answer to whether or not one is SUPPOSED to shave. It all comes down to personal choice.

If you want to shave you legs only, do that. If you want to shave your genitals, go for it. If you DON'T want to shave ANYWHERE, well, show me where it's written that you HAVE to.

It's a personal choice, and no one can make it for you. There are pros and cons to either choice.

For example (as this seems to be the most commonly skirted issue), females shaving the genitals.

The older generations may be more wary about it, claiming that hair is there for a reason. It is. It is a protection from bacteria. However, it can also trap bacteria and moisture, as well as dirt, and being on your period while you have tons of hair down there can be a messy thing.

I myself shave just because it makes me feel cleaner, and I hate the way it feels to wear a pad with hair adding to the heat in the summer, which causes ludicrous amounts of sweat to build up.

However, unless done carefully, shaving can cause razor burn (VERY painful), nicks (also painful) and general discomfort when the hair starts to grow back, as ingrown hairs may occur, and it itches like crazy (very embarrassing in public).

So, all said, do whatever you want, and don't let anyone tell you HAVE to do something one way or another. If it really is YOUR body, then it's purely YOUR decision, right?

That is up to your personal opinion, it is not a must and it was quite rare just 30 years ago. It's a fashion thing today.

Where are you suppose 2 shave when you have blonde hairs?

Well, if you have blonde hairs on your legs, you need to start off with an electric shaver. At first, shave from your ankles to mid thigh. If your leg hair was darker, then you would start with a shaver. Shave in the same areas. When your leg hair gets darker, you can use a shaver. But when you use a shaver for the first time, only shave the same amout as you did with the electric shaver. If your knees are rough, don't shave up there yet untill its smooth. Lotion will help that. If your knees are rough, shave below your knees until your knees are smooth. Some advice is don't shave over cuts, make sure when you use a real shaver you hold the shaver straight, and lotion after every time you shave and whenever you get a chance. Kate Lin
