Inspired by a friend, and having not shaved my legs this entire winter, I decided to wax.
Having thrown out the 'Nads a long time ago, I found myself purchasing some professional-use pre-waxed strips, and doing them myself at home.
First off, the twelve prewaxed strips were only useful for vaguely denuding the front third of each lower leg, before running out of sticky power.
And despite knowing what the hell I was doing, I ended up with angry red speckles wherever I managed to dislodge the hairs from the widely scattered follicles of my forelegs.
So, some of my skin is all reddish and bumpy looking like the skin of a plucked chicken, and is still almost as hairy as it was before this whole thing started.
You know, I've done this sort of thing before, and I should have known better.
The most significant difference between the last time and this was the fact that instead of having to scrub the sticky "water-soluble" waxing substance from my legs using a scotchbrite and some olive oil -- don't ask, it was the last of a long series of things I tried to get the wax off and the only one that even made a dent in the stickiness, I only had to rub a pre-oiled wipe over the areas to remove what residual gunk remained after the unsuccessful hair removal.
Oh, and this one only cost $5. Of course, for the $10 I spent on the other stuff, I was able to vaguely denude the entire surface of my legs, instead of just the lower front bits.
What's in your head?
