I think Avani's comment was wrong, laidies need to shave their 'private parts', becasue if they dont it starts to smell down there and all your sweat gets caught up i there and its not nice. Also When I shave mine after a long time of not shaving, when I look at the razor all the soap is black how sweaty and unhealthy it is to not shave.
I agree with the girl who said you need to shave, because it is unhealthy and you can ask any doctor.
After you shave, use deodorant and rub it on your outer vagina (where you shaved the hair from). I have a friend who use to be a performer in Las Vegas and this is what she did when she had to shave for showgirl type costumes. It will prevent those itchy bumps
there are some easy and quick methods to do it.. they are safe and gives a smooth feel.. my GF does it and i like to touch it there when she shaves her vagina... there is a special cream that you can put there as well to make it more smooth and wanted..
