Hi Cricket

I always used to wax but I have so much trouble getting the time to get to the salon now that I just maintain it the best I can with my epilator (which really hurts so only the bikini line gets done and I just trim the rest). I have the epilator for my underarms. I've tried shaving and depilatory cream on the bikini line and I get horrible itchies and redness as well. It's great for the first day and then I have to spend the next few days resisting the urge to scratch in public, what a nightmare.

Just the other day I heard about a gadget called the Seiko Clean Cut which is an electric razor specifically designed for the pubic area. It only works on stubble so you have to trim right down first but the reviews for it have been amazing, everyone raving about how smooth and irritation-free the shave is, it's been called the pain-free Brazilian. I am seriously considering getting one.

Back on topic, while pregnant I have been using Sebamed Feminine Intimate Wash which is specifically pH balanced for the female genital area so I can just generally feel as fresh as possible but I am not troubled by thrush anyway. Believe me if hair caused thrush I would be continually plagued by it.
