Well, I'm almost 52 (in a month), and I still have to shave my legs more than once a week. But I do have those good hair genes. Five years ago, I cut about 15 inches of hair off to donate to Locks for Love, and left the length to the middle of my shoulder blades. The day before my 50th birthday, I went in again for another donation -- 24 inches, braided, is the length I cut off. My remaining hair length was just barely past my shoulders. Two years later, it's down to my waist again.

Oh, and I've tried a waxing kit on my legs. Liked the results for the most part, but didn't like the mess and the extra time it took. Shaving is easier.

My upper lip is totally hair free & so is my neck. I am going in Friday to have some little stragglers on my chin done. A lot of women have their underarm hair removed, plus my son is talking about having the hair on his back lasered.

How much does something like that cost?

You don't want to know. LOL I looked into it as there was a place in town that did it. I read one of their pamphlets and they couldn't guarantee that the hair wouldn't come back. They said there would be a reduction but why pay all that money if there is a chance it could come back. It's about $500 for one treatment but you have to keep going back for several treatments. Also not everyone is a good candidate. They will do a consultation and look at your hair color and skin tone and let you know what they think the outcome will be.

Well, you made an interesting offer, but no thank you.

I prefer my double edge razor. Smooth, yet not going to strip the skin, and leave the hair, like my last self waxing attempt.
