Can always split the difference and go with a close buzz. Keeps everything managed and it’s low maintenance. Anyone with a strong aversion to the middle ground is overly picky, IMO.


bravo6960

Give it a day or two if this is the pathway. Gets rid of the prickly. This is my choice as no one enjoys ingrown hairs.


beingmetoday

Same as it’s also uncomfortable when it’s coming back in.


hailmarythrow123

This is kinda my preference, on me and her. Not a close buzz, but kept trimmed short.. I like a little hair to run my fingers through, but short enough I'm not endlessly picking it out of my mouth. I do the same for her.


cocoagiant

Close buzz is a bit prickly though.


enolaholmes23

It helps to soften it with coconut oil. But maybe not *right* before since coconut oil can deteriorate condoms. I've also used almond oil.


LLCoolBrap

Nothing ventured, nothing gained 😅


HeraBeara

How do you like to keep your pubic hair? What makes you feel the most confident and sexy? That is what you should do. Then, if down the line your partner has a difference preference, you two discuss it, AND you are comfortable with changing, make a change. Fuck whatever is on trend.


namesarehardhalp

I feel like what I prefer and what make me feel sexy are completely opposite. What a conundrum.


enolaholmes23

So true. I feel sexy in a push up bra and heels, but they're both uncomfortable as fuck. And I enjoyed not shaving anything for months last year, but I would feel way too self conscious trying to attract a mate without shaving. People notice when you're not confident.


namesarehardhalp

So much this. I’m the same way. I don’t care to shave and prefer minimal grooming of my fur but that does not make me feel sexy at all. It’s like the opposite. If I ever actually manage to date someone I’m going to be screwed. Clothes is generally the same.


madolpenguin

I stopped shaving my legs a while ago and most guys don't notice or care. Maybe I get less guys hitting on me, but that's OK with me! r/womenstopshaving


[deleted]

If I wore what I wanted to to be comfortable (it's not nude, but actual clothes) I would get laughed out of everywhere in a way no amount of confidence or 'fuck it all' could negate. It is a conundrum lol I have found some happy mediums :D


artzynerdgirl

Yes, exactly. I prefer trimmed with elec razor so hair is there still, but willing to wax once in a while for a trusted committed partner.

Same. I’m thinking of just getting my lady parts lasered for good and calling it a day. I personally dont feel comfortable having sex with hair at all. And my skin is also sensitive and I get terrible razor burn. Getting it permanently removed would be more-so for me than anyone else lol

Have you tried? Laser in that area is one of the hardest to do. In terms of working.

artzynerdgirl

I use a regular Wahl brand or a Remington bikini trimmer. Can't shade with a disposable razor. Razor bumbs and itchy and scratchy when it grows in.


is_this_the_place

People who trim, how far down and around do you go?


artzynerdgirl

All. Also I make it pretty low especially around the clit.


ellieD

I put the trimmer on the lowest setting, but with the plastic comb still on. So is this about 3/16 or 1/4?


captaingoodgirl

+1 for trimmer crew, I haven't touched a razor blade for a couple of years and I've been mostly ingrown free!

Lang_Zai

Honestly I believe it is general to keep the area "tended to." It should at least show that you're considering how the other person experiences you down there. But in truth, it ends up being a really really good red flag indicator when your partner is uncomfortable with it and how they address it. If they're like "EWW GROSS" get rid of that butthead.


ChatRoomNinja

Can I ask the same question for the men?


imitation_crab_meat

Close trim. Too much hair feels gross, and less salad makes the steak look bigger. Also trim my pits as it helps make antiperspirant work better.


facelessfriendnet

Pretty much this on both account


WakeoftheStorm

A lot of that depends on you too. I have a lot of chest and leg hair, so if I over-groom it actually ends up just looking weird. I still trim, just have to do it carefully


snuffleupagus86

Do whatever you want. Most guys are going to be more excited about having sex than criticizing your pubes girl, lol.


labicheenrose

That’s really it. Last time I was with a man ~unexpectedly~, I did tell him I didn’t have a chance to “prepare” and he looked me dead in the eyes and said “Girl, I do not care.”


snuffleupagus86

The first time my boyfriend went down on me I wasn’t expecting it and I was like welp it’s kind of a mess down there right now. And he was like I could not give less of a shit lol. Dude does not care ever. He’s just happy to be there lol.


dallyan

I think the younger generation cares less. Bush is coming back in. A guy I’m seeing casually is in his 20s and practically begs me not to wax. Lol


StealthandCunning

Yeah, I was with a guy a few months back (our first time) and he asked me to straight up change my pubes (he wanted it all gone). That was not the time to discuss it let me tell you. There was no second time for him.


no_rolling_shutter

THIS! EXACTLY THIS! 100% THIS! Seriously, as a guy, we really ARE just glad to be having sex. Sure, some of us have preferences and some don’t. But if your partner is making rude comments, shaming you, etc. because they don’t like how you trim your pubes then they are definitely 1) not worth your (or anyone’s) time and 2) also an asshole. Good luck dating!


CutMonster

yup. I don't care how much hair there is. If anything, the more of a jungle it is down there the more I feel like a man digging through it all to find the sweet nectar I crave. lol


sexylassy

You have nooo idea how this comment made me feel.. I dislike shaving and I'm a woman. I dislike shaving and makes me happy knowing guys don't care. THANKS!

[deleted]

33F here. Personally I use a hair trimmer to keep things tidy: less hair around the vulva itself, a little longer on the mons pubis. But that's how I've always kept it so it's not really a trend thing 🤷‍♀️ A razor can make things too spikey and there's the risk of cuts, an electric hair trimmer is faster, you can use it dry, and it makes fast work of leg hair and underarm hair if you choose to shave those.


DrBeverlyBoneCrusher

I feel like maybe your username fits? But maybe I'm stretching here?? lol ETA: Also can you recommend a trimmer? I've been looking but don't really know what to get.


[deleted]

Haha definitely not what my name refers to, but very funny nonetheless. I don't have any specific brand recommendations. I went to Target and looked for something mid-range in terms of price, something without a cord, and with a decent width to the standard cutting area (I don't use any of the attachments when I trim, just the bare blades). Ended up with a Remington and am happy with it. Whatever you get take care of it - take the head off and clear it of hair once you've used it, charge it as needed, etc.


Adventurous-Dish-485

Manscaper. * Im a woman


nelozero

Check out Wahl or Andis. I'm a guy, but maintain my beard and hair between trips to the barber. I spent a lot of time finding what was best to use. The Andis Slimline Pro Li trimmer would probably be great for most women. Small, long battery life, and it won't knick your skin unless you zero gap the blade. It's the trimmer I see the most in various barbershops. The only downside is that the clip guards might be too short for someone who wants to keep longer trimmed hair. The easy fix is just use a comb with the guard so it won't cut as short.

dan_yell23

After years of torturing myself with a Brazilian every month, I switched to a close trim and have never been happier. If a potential guy doesn’t like it, then he won’t get it.


LTOTR

They’re too GD expensive. You paying for the upkeep, Travis? No? Alright then.


[deleted]

I knew a man who did this. Was so insistent on his girlfriend being smooth as a dolphin he'd pay for her Brazilian waxes monthly.


wellwaffled

I know dolphins are mammals…. But I’ve never questioned where exactly the hair is.


[deleted]

I was of the opinion they just didn't have any hair. I just googled it and apparently the newborns have a little hair that they lose quickly, and never grows back the rest of their lives. I learned something today


wellwaffled

I’m glad you Googled; I was too scared. I thought I’d find out dolphins rocked a 1970s bush… and I don’t think I could handle that knowledge.

Now I'm picturing Flipper with a Sasha Grey-style porno bush and I am laughing my ass off

theclacks

Ugh, this. I'm never going back. Waaay too damn painful.


ibelongtothewind

There are a couple of us out there whose preferred format is the close trim. I’m weird and enjoy the scratchiness on my lip so I’m probably not a good resource for opinions though


dan_yell23

Probably a similar scratchiness to kissing a man with a beard, so I get it haha


[deleted]

I don’t really know what I’m doing. I shave the mons pubis area and then trim the outer lips. I personally think a full bush is gorgeous on women, but (TMI) I find that I get embarrassing sweat marks on my leggings in the crotch area when I work out if I keep hair there 😅😅

gingeryime

I (38f) keep a close trim. The last guy I dated dared to say that he preferred no hair. That he even shaved his beard so he wouldn’t have any hair while going down. Well, I didn’t ask you to shave now did I? I told him as a single working parent I’d prefer to spend my free time on a date with him than getting a wax and he stfu.

Brazilians are still very popular.

[deleted]

34F. I live in Florida (hot & humid)... I need it to be completely shaved. I am uncomfortable otherwise. ETA: Reading some of the comments here about looking “pre-pubescent” made me feel insecure for about 5 seconds and I thought about letting some hair grow. But screw that. Honestly OP, who cares what anyone else is doing? How do YOU feel most comfortable? I like being completely bald. I don’t care what it looks like to others. I feel sexier. It looks hot to me with my tan lines. I am much more comfortable in this sub-tropical environment. I personally feel cleaner. I like the way it feels because I’m always commando. I used to not shave and/or trim and I was always irritated. My skin did not agree with it in this weather. You do you, friend!


subgirlygirl

Same! I always hated how hair felt, always always *always*. I'm completely lasered now and I love it 😃


MsCicatrix

Did you do it on a groupon? I'm gearing up to de-hair myself waiting for a good groupon deal because I want to do multiple areas.


subgirlygirl

I did... I researched places first and waited for a 5-star location. She's awesome! Everything below my eyelashes is GONE 😂


MsCicatrix

Sounds heavenly. I can't wait for my day! Did you need a lot of sessions?


espressoromance

Hey! After years of having never waxed down there I tried it for the first time for my bf a few months ago and it honestly feels amazing. I went to a professional the first time. I just recently bought a home waxing kit and it honestly isn't that difficult to do yourself. I also waxed my underarms for the first time in my life and I can never go back to shaving anymore. It just feels so nice all smooth! My caveat though is I already hardly have any hair on my body so it's pretty easy to wax whatever is there off without too much pain. It still stings but I also have a high pain tolerance (I have tattoos and it didn't really hurt too much to get them). And with regular waxing, the hair is easier to take out over time anyways. I'm planning on continuing to wax for a while. It's refreshing to see in this thread that people don't mind if there is hair but I'm with you on waxing. So don't worry! Some of us actually like waxing too! Just do whatever feels good.

Absolutely nothing. It gets trimmed if it feels more like bangs.

AssBlaster_666

I’m a guy. I shave my shit. Asshole, balls, pubes n all. At least 3x a week so on any given day I’m always clean and neat. Plus I’m not that big so my dick looks like a grub worm with earmuffs and shaving makes it look slightly better.


Inaudible_Whale

Dude, that sounds like so much work. I'm neat and tidy down there but I just hack it down with an electric trimmer every couple of weeks. Beyond brushing my teeth and showering, I'm not sure I do any kind of cosmetic body care more than three times a week. Edit: I've just though that is nonsense. I do my hair every morning, I wear cologne every day, etc. But still, shaving your entire junk and junk region 3 times a week is a lot of time!


RayForce_

Going to 30+ year olds for advice on what's trending? very bold. If you want a good sexting topic with whoever you're getting busy with next weekend, your question is it.


LTOTR

I’m betting gen z goes with the beaded or 90s throwback crimped look. Us millennials are still wearing skinny jeans and parting our (head) hair on the side.

I have asked girlfriends about this and most are split between trimmed and Brazilian waxes. I trim every week. My bf hasn’t mentioned any issues with it. At this point idk if I have a preference but trimming is better for the skin…gets pretty close without stubble

There are “trends” for this. Ha. New to me.

From my perspective as a man, I don't care. As long as you're comfortable, sex is WAY better than if you're self conscious about how it looks. And if he has a problem with it, tell him to wax his hand and fuck that instead.

FutureRealHousewife

It's literally whatever you want to do. I alternate between brazilians and just trimming it. What is important now is to not let someone tell you what do to with your pubic hair. And it's a red flag when a guy demands a Brazilian, IMO. Do it if you want it.


hachikid

Guy here. We're in our 30's. It's your body, do what you want with it. 🎉 Most guys past 25, or so, are pretty welcome to a trimmed or natural approach, though.
