5 if you cant wax, nair or pluck for a few days, do you give in to the urge to shave? (actually i heard plucking is worse and shaving is better but i feel safer plucking for some odd reason) --- no... i always make sure i have time to tweez... no matter what
6 favourite method of hair removal (besides laser/electrolysis but if youre on it PRAY TELL how its working for you and how long it took to complete the treatments) here are some preferences: sugaring, waxing, threading, plucking, shaving, finishing touch/electronic hair removal blades, nair/cream. also please recommend brands, types, and pros of cons of the ones you like or dislike very strongly. --- i only tweez and i think it does a great job... you just have to have good lighting, a great mirrr and a lot of time a patients

8 whats the strangest place that you have to remove hair? i dont know if its strange but my fingers...i actually woulda said the tops of my feet or a couple other things except that i saw some people who said they too have to remove the hair from there. --- th eonly place i have to remove on a regular basis is my chin... i did have to tweez a couple from my nipples whn i was pregnant... i guess that is strange
9 HOW on EARTH do you get rid of all that tiny black stubble? the kind that looks like pores in your arms or wherever you remove it from? the ones that when you shave or whatever its still there! my legs even kinda look like that bcuz im so pale and then i got these li'l dots except on my legs its pores, on my arms its hair. anyone got any ideas? --- i get a really good magnifying mirror and good tweezers and i tweez every one of those little black things

13 favourite method? most effective? least favourite? least effective? please give details as to why, if you can. i.e. the smell, the residue, painful/leaves burns, too much preparation time/doesnt remove small/long hairs effectively, doesnt remove hair as its supposed to, etc. --- again.. all i do is tweez... i do it every few days and i get every hair every time... even the litle bitty black ones... no smell... no residue... sometimes it can take hours though

17 have you come to accept the problem or do you constantly find yourself wondering how things would be different if you DIDNT have it? does it cause a constant state of depression/loss of control? --- doesn't bother me... i may have it removed at some point but i am in no hurry
18 does the cold seem to make hair growth worse? --- i don't think so
