finished epilating them today! it still hurt a lot but i think because i finished the other leg first i got accustomed to pushing through the pain so i got done quicker

also this is showing off a lot of thigh, idk if it’ll get removed or not ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

    Is it your first time epilating? How was the pain, relating to that (hypothetical) first time?

    I’m asking because, after some (read: many, many) times, plucking my eyebrows has just completely 100% stopped hurting. Could epilating be kinda the same?

    I bought an Epilation device a few days ago, and it’s just been sitting there. On the one hand, I hate my body hair, on the other hand, pain.

    I don’t think I know a way to compliment someone’s legs without sounding like a major creep so I’ll say “Nice job” and leave it at that.

      beware! curious stranger, this method will produce fabulous results, but at great cost. enduring the pain will require a mental fortitude like no other, art thou ready for such an endeavor?

        I have severe gender dysphoria and depression, pain doesnt matter to me at this point and if it looks anywhere near as good as you I would bear all of the pain in the world

          ah ok i gotcha. sorry for making light of things earlier i didn’t know how much this meant to you. yeah my legs are hella smooth now an i’m loving it a lot, but a really close shave with a safety razor gets me similar results! only real difference is that the hair grows back much sooner than with epilating. if you do decide to epilate i wish you the best of luck, but if you want a more pain free method of smoof legs, shaving (specifically with a safety razor! or maybe a straight blade if you own and know how to use one) can get you there, you just gotta do it more often.
