    *wonders if wax=accessory* ouchie....

    hehehe. I waxed some significant parts of my body today, including my armpits, in preparation for starting swimming. It works nicely but I am a bit sore now... micro-bruises. some roots even bled. But it's ok. Says the masochist in me.

    Anyway some hair in my bikini zone (where I did not go very far) is very tenacious. Any hints?

    Wear swim suit that has a little more coverage? How about lycra shorts?
    What do I know, I don't swim.

    Is the hair being removed for purposes of aerodynamics, or for cosmetic reasons?

    Hahaha, haha, aerodynamics. LOL. I am in the "driftwood" category. Purely for reduction of embarrassment.

    How about one of TE's triathlon swimsuits? I think they look pretty cool:

    I vote for scissors or bleach! The hair follicles of those suckers are so big
    that they will probably leave scars if you're not careful ripping them out!

    lol. I'm in the same boat (almost never swim). Wear a less revealing bathingsuit. LandsEnd has a fabulous assortment of nice coverage swim suits.

    Gave up shaving and waxing and tweezers in that neighborhood, cuz of the infections and ingrown hairs.

    Now I just use scissors or clippers.

    (but I swim in a "Tri" suit of shorts and a bra-top, so no-one sees anything anyway)
