I find that if I use veet, it comes in softer and smoother every time than it does if I shave. So I'm not too bothered about regrowth after birth.
Today was veet day! Here's my tried and tested method:
1. Use the squeezy tube not the spray, squeeze one strip up the left, and one up the right (from your inner thigh right up to the edge of your tummy where the hairline is).
2. Squeeze some horizontal stripes across the hairline down to wherever you want your landing strip to be (I inevitably get one anyway as someone pointed out this happens with coarser hair because I don't want to leave it on too long in case it starts to sting).
3. Use your hand to lightly rub in in circular motions, being careful not to spread it further than your hairline and also not to rub too much off.
4. Wash your hands in warm soapy water, sit on the toilet with the lid down (easy to wipe clean!) and read a mag for 2-3 minutes, no more than 5 in my opinion.
5. In the shower, use warm water to rinse the excess off, then use an old facecloth (much better than a sponge or scraper) to gently rub away the hair in a circular motion, change direction so it really gets rid of the stubborn bits. Even if you get a bit heavy handed and scrub a bit, it just gets a bit red and shouldn't really hurt.
6. Rinse with the shower head, making sure there's no cream left behind, rinse the cloth off and give yourself a wipe down to make sure.
7. Wash as normal with whatever you normally use, as long as it's gentle on the skin.
8. Pat dry, and other hair that's still there might still fall off even after it's dry so don't worry if there's a tiny bit of stubble. You could always gently shave that if you wanted to be extra neat!
Of course this entire post is waaaay TMI but if you have had as much trouble with this as I have then tried and tested I'm sure will be appreciated!! xx
