Personally I only do the bikini line. I found some really good wax at Sallys that doesn't require strips so you can get it in all those little weird spots that strips don't like to go. It's a green wax, just heat it, put it on, it hardens and rip it fast. It's not THAT bad especially if u just do the pantyline. I find I have WAY less irritation waxing than shaving.
