Regardless of your shaving and body hair habits
now, you more than likely remember the status move that ~shaving your
legs~ was in middle school, and have lived through the immense
awkwardness of having to call an employee over to unlock the razorblades
from the drugstore for you. Here, 12 shaving struggles every woman
understands.

1. How grown up you felt shaving for the first time.
Damn! Who knew body hair would've been such a status symbol in middle school?
2. Your mom only letting you shave up to your calf.
TFW you think about your knee cap as, like, the line of demarcation for leg hair for the rest of your adolescence.
3. When your skin was so smooth, it was shiny.
Will you ever flex as hard as you did when you unzipped your Limited Too cargo pants to reveal smooth, shiny calves?
4. Going from having a whole shaving-cream-for-her and matching razor set to the bare minimum, aka one dull AF razor and, like, a bar of soap.
Once
upon a time, everyone had Lavender Ladies' Secret Whisper shave gel on
the edge of the bathtub, but somewhere along the way, everyone realized
shaving cream was a conspiracy theory and started using bar soap, or
something even sadder, like That Shampoo You Gave Up On Because It Made
Your Hairline Break Out as shaving cream.
[post_ads_2]5. Know you should probably have a separate razor for your legs, pits, and bikini line ... but, like, not.
Who is made of money like that?
6. Gawking at the price of disposable razors at CVS under duress from the poor sales associate you had to call over to unlock them for you.
Why are razors treated the same as, like, those random digital cameras
they sell behind the cash register at drugstores? I never want to have
someone looking over my shoulder while I decide which weirdly marketed
female razor to choose.
7. Razor burn.
How dare the $18 blade I purchased with 1.5 hours of overtime betray me like this?!
8. Groupon-ing laser treatments as, like ... a threat to Big Razor?
But never going through with it because scheduling appointments feels like a whole thing.
9. Being pissed because you shaved your whole body and your date canceled.
Now you just have to sit at home like a sad little smooth dolphin alone
all night, pretending it wasn't a huge deal that you almost dry-drowned
in your shower trying to shave your own butt hole. A little compassion
please, Jake!
[post_ads_2]10. Never really knowing when a razor was "dull"?
Like I'm not gonna thumb this blade to find out what's going on, so I
guess I'll just throw out this razor and use a new one ... every six
months?
11. Making silent little games with yourself in the shower when you try to decide whether or not you need to shave.
If
I spend 20 minutes shaving my whole leg, I'm almost guaranteed to have a
bad night tonight ... but if I don't shave, I'll probably meet my soul
mate??? What should I do?!
12. Realizing it's not the end of the world if you have a little stubble.
What's that guy gonna do? Not fuck you because you have some hair on your legs?
