[imdeanna]

Not really because I like biking

what do you guys prefer, hair on legs of men or not?

I think flyby's suggestion would be best....

Ummm...yeah! And I'm a man!

• this group is appropriately discerning of first time posters on topics like this...

It's amazing what a quick yahoo search will revealSearch "hair removal forums"

I guess I somehow offended some of you and I apologize. I've searched this topic on the internet, but the problem with posting this type of question in a male forum is that it will usually spin off into a debate whether or not if the guys who shave their legs are gay or not. I haven't talked to to many men who have tried epilators before, so I figured I would try to find out about personal experience with epilators from a female forum hoping that I would get more accurate experiences from them.

Thinking about it, I might have offended some of you by my, not because of biking comment. I love biking, but that's not why I am shaving my legs. That's what I meant by it. Basically I am shaving my legs becaue of personal preference, not because I bike.

I just reread my post and wanted to clarify that when I said what do you guys prefer, I am referring to the female members of this forum.

Thanks for the link mr. silver. I didn't even know there was a forum for hair removal, I just researched the different blogs and reviews of epilators.

I buy what he's saying...cut him some slack...

I had to explain to my cousins kids that my legs were shaved because of cycling...not because I'm gay...

BUT, the reality is that for me to shave my legs means that I'm a cycling POSER since I'm not really that fast!

Transformer: Andrea's advice is best. When I do it, I use one of the new triple blade razors. In addition, the new alcoholic based hand sanitizers is great as an astringent afterward.

My hubby just uses an electric razor, no bumps or rashes. I have personally tried the epilator and I would not use it to torture even our worst enemies. It hurt sooooo bad and I have a high pain tolerance.

Good luck in your quest, and BTW, I like the shaved look, cyclist or not!

I don't know how I feel about a guy who shaves he's leg's. I hate shaving if I didn't have to i wouldn't. But i am in the public eye a lot with my job and it would offend people. I am ok with it but why would you want to do that every other day.

My hubby does it because he turns into a forest of mud balls when he mountain bikes. I like hairy legs on men, but I have to agree that shaving makes a lot of sense for him -- and our shower drain.

transformer1, I understand why you're asking on this forum but I've seen plenty of rational discussion between men on this topic on both www.bikejournal.com and the serotta forums. You just have to pick your company.

You don't have to be fast to shave your legs--it's much easier to clean out road rash without hair in the way.

I shave my legs in the shower, and just use regular hair conditioner. Also a cheap, disposable razor. Your skin toughens up after a bit, and it won't irritate anymore. LOVE the hairless leg look of male cyclists! Hair on legs seems sort of uncouth to me now...
