Not only does shaving cause redness, irritation and ingrown hairs, it grows back prickly. I'll never understand why anyone wants sandpaper feeling skin - especially Down Under. 

Waxing, on the other hand, pulls the hair from the root allowing a finer, thinner hair to grow back in. It may feel uncomfortable for a few minutes while having it removed, but at least the skin will be smoother and healthier for several weeks after the service. And when your hair grows in, it will be soft. More importantly, you won't feel like you're having sexy time with a porcupine.
