Hello everyone,
I am posting this because I just need to vent a little about my situation. So unfortunately I am naturally quite hairy, and I hate it. I spend at least every other day shaving my face, arms, chest, abdominal area, legs, etc. I don't mind the process of shaving itself, I actually got my routine down to something I'm comfortable doing regularly. The issue I have is that my body hair grows back quite fast and that is really bothering me. I can't go more than 1 to 2 days before noticing stubble on my body, and that really negatively affects my body image when I want to crossdress because all I'm thinking is that people will notice I'm a guy in a dress because of my unnaturally hairy body (for a woman). I just want to have silky smooth skin that lasts for for than just one day, preferably a week at least. I don't know what to do. I thought maybe posting here I might get some tips and tricks on how to better handle my body hair. Also any words of encouragement, because sometimes I feel like my body hair keeps me from being as feminine as I'd like to be. Thank you! - Angelica
There are a few ways to keep it down a little longer. You could try an epilator, hurts like the dickens the first couple of times but smooth skin lasts a little longer. Some see results with an home IPL unit. You could go get waxed or try laser. Or if money allows start electrolysis. I plan this summer to start getting my chest done. I hate my body hair so much that I want it gone for ever. Body hair is a never ending battle.

My hair grows really fast too and unfortunately I can really only afford to get my brows and brazillian area waxed on a regular basis. Wish I qualified for the female pricing on waxing!
You're not alone, is probably the most encouraging I can be.
That said, we hairies are kinda lucky, because of the massive difference especially in sensitivity after a full shave and moisturise - it really makes you appreciate the softness of the clothing.

It’s a battle most of us face. I recently shaved my legs for the first time and was so pleased with the results . I posted a couple pictures here on cdh my legs weren’t even visible in the pics. A couple weeks later I wanted to show myself in a new sleeveless dress. I boldly shaved my arms to match my legs but upon looking at the pictures I discovered something. I felt the pics looked great but their was a tuft of hair under my pits. Oops! I didn’t even think of that area. So glad I double checked before posting. At the end of the day most of us are hairyer than we would like it’s just something we have to deal with. Sometimes reality bites.
