Today, I shaved my legs for the first time in three weeks. It took half an hour, three disposable razors, and I cut my legs up so badly they look worse then they did when they were hairy. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I shaved my legs and pits for the first time this summer. It took 3 disposable razors and an hour to get the job done. I've clearly been single for far too long. FML
Today, I shaved my legs. It's been so long since I've shaved that my razor broke. FML
Today, I haven't shaved for so long the hair on my legs has split ends. FML
Today, I tried shaving my bikini area for the first time. I ended up cutting myself several times. I now have impressive razor burn, and it's incredibly painful to even wear pants. FML
Today, I decided to shave my legs completely to be more confident in my dress. I spent over an hour making sure my legs were perfectly shaved. It wasn't until I had been out awhile that I realized I forgot to shave my armpits. FML
Today, I shaved my legs and armpits for the first time in 6 weeks. Unfortunately, I didn't have a hot date, I just had my yearly gyno exam. FML
Today, while shaving my nether regions, I slipped and sliced myself in three separate places. They won't completely stop bleeding. I'm virtually having a second period, and it hurts to close my legs. FML
Today, I decided to conquer my fear of blades, and tried shaving my legs with a razor. I sat on the side of my bathtub and wet my legs, but some of the water splashed. I slipped on it and fell back, hitting my head on the tile wall and slicing my leg open at the same time. FML
Today, I bought an expensive razor that's supposed to be great. My roommate asked if she could borrow it, and as her legs just looked like they needed touching up, I said sure. After a strangely long amount of time, she came back, thanked me and left. Her legs were still hairy. FML
Today, I shaved for the first time. My mum gave me a razor and I spent about 20 minutes trying to use it. I gave up, yelling, "FUCK IT!" and put it back on the shelf. It fell, and as it hit the floor, a lid fell off. I'd tried to shave with a sheathed razor for 20 minutes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Get a Schick Quattro for women. Disposable razors are garbage.

Don't be so cheap and buy an actual razor next time, you'll be able to use it again and the results will be much better. Sorry OP, but YDI.

Try Veet. No pain, no hair. Yay...

46, I find Veet and Nair very painful. I learned to hard way that I can't use it.

NTry going slower. If you're getting cut up like that, you're going too fast, or you're using a butcher knife.

Epilator. One costs about as much as a waxing, but they can be used for a long long while. The hair takes awhile to go back and your legs are nice and smooth, not cuts. I'll admit, it's not perfect, but a greatly depletes the hair and then it's easy to shave what little is left. Apparently some women find them pretty painful, but I get nothing more then a slight prickling sensation.

You can use a disposable for a few days growth, but when you let the jungle get overgrown, you need to bring in the serious hardware and chemical weaponry. So, what's going on with your pussy? Are you auditioning for 70's-era retro ****?

The state of her genitals is really none of your business. :/
perdix 31
In the real world, you are right, but this is FML, baby, the state of her genitals is of utmost importance to me and the readers.

You got that right - a damn nasty girl

#40: Grow up. Women can't control how fast their hair grows, nor are they required to shave it for your viewing pleasure.

Their is a reply button for that.

Dude, reply by using the replies system. Idk, this just really bothers me.
silent_bride 5
"Dude", my computer glitched out. It was a mistake. Relax.
Rowdey 10
It wasn't really a heated response.. but okay..?
silent_bride 5
...and yet my mistake "really bothered" you enough to speak up. My response wasn't heated either.
Rowdey 10
You said "Relax", therefore implying that I had been freaking out. It does bother me, but not to the point at which I freak out.

Why don't you take the first part of your user name seriously.Every one of you'r comments suck
Jessj958 19
Why would you not shave your legs for 3 weeks? Not trying to be mean but that's gross! I've gone a few days without shaving my legs, but weeks at a time is pure laziness. Next time, don't wait for weeks to shave.

As long as she showers regularly, there is nothing "gross" about leg hair. Men have it. They're not gross because they have hair. It's natural.

I just went half a year without shaving.
Jessj958 19
Why is everyone thumbing down comments when people say gross, yet people who say things like "no worries" or "get a different razor" are getting thumbed up? Men have hairy legs and hairy pits, so should all women quit shaving their pits too? I mean it's only natural, right? I read another comment that said she shaves everyday, it's part of taking care of yourself and good hygiene and that's how I feel.
5t3ff1k4h 47
It's not good hygiene, though. It doesn't make you any cleaner. It's no more hygienic to be shaven than not.

142- i read somewhere what it is more hygienic to shave your armpits, because sweat clings to the hairs, leading to BO. and shaving down below is more hygienic for when its your time of the month. i could be wrong though, and i agree with you on the leg front
5t3ff1k4h 47
206 - I read that as well, and I agree with it but disagree at the same time. Legs however, as you said, are totally different.
SammyS2012 21
I've actually read somewhere that's it's better to not shave down below. But it bothers me when people imply hair=unhygienic. So men are dirty? Your arms are dirty? Every one has hair on so much of their body where they don't even realise.
