.........Are you kidding me?

Ummm Im black and white (and some other things) and I have hair all over the place....its not thick or like, gross, but theres hair. And I've always had hair on my hands and feet, and stomach, and other places. Most women I know shave their toes....including myself. I also shave my knuckles. I like my body that way. Many people probably dont notice it, but I do.

My sister, when her hair grows in from shaving is soooooo stubbly and hard, it hurts. Even on her toes. but mine grows in sooooo soft!

My hair is dark (obviously lol) And I dont just shave my big toe, I shave em all! Just in case, lol...I know a few of the little piggies get hair on them, but it gets less noticeable as u go down the line lol

Yeah, I Nair my toe hair. But that's because it's a particularly nasty variety. It seriously looks like the hair on a dude's toes - all thick and wiry.

The hair on my knuckles is so fine, you can't really even tell it's there and that's the way it is with the rest of the hair on my body. That doesn't really bother me...just the hairy toes and legs.

haha yep i shave mine! even though i'm fair i'm naturally like a mousy brown colour, and they show on my big toes! i don't shave my fingers though. its weird, i'm dark, but my arm hair is as blonde as can be! my boyfriend laughs at me for shaving my toes... i remember when i cut my toe shaving haha i had to make up some lame excuse for the massive gash in my toe like 'oh i scraped it!'

 

[NicksWifey]

I hate toe hair. I shave my big toe. The hair is blonde, but ugly.
LOL, it's funny, my aunt thinks she's the shit, she always flaunts her body but the bitch has massive hair on her big toe, I always laugh when she wears her sexy shoes around, I just snicker and think to myself that she really needs to pay attention to her feet when she shaves her legs.

 

[hooked*on*mac]

lol, I wax, cant stand the big foot look
shaving causes cross growth and the hair grows back darker, faster and thicker

 

[stacylynne]

I shave my big toe also. I hate body hair. I'm looking into electrolysis.
I heard it hurts but it's perm.
Laser hair removal is not perm.

Ick dude. I wax and when I can't I shave - WHATEVER IT TAKES! I can see the few hairs on my big toe standing up and that means EVERYONE can see them. I used to make fun of my dad for his big hairy toes - guess this is karma coming to fuzz me on my toe.

OMG cutting ur toe when u shave it is the worrrrrrst cuz then when ppl see it, they always ask! And its like Uhhhhh I cut it shaving. Then they're all "ewww u shave ur toes WHY?" Hmmm, because it feels good! Duhhhh cuz theres hair on it. Geez louise! My mom understands though lol.

Awww dont u hate when u forget a spot or a small area when shaving? I always feel my legs/whatever area now, after I shave to make sure, but I haaaate when I see a missed patch of hair lol

I dont know exactly what cross growth is, but I dont think shaving causes the hair to grow back darker or faster or thicker....think of it. You are taking a blade to the edge of the hair, where it meets ur skin....how could that possibly make it darker/thicker/grow in quicker? I dunno, thats how we learned it in cosmetology school...we learned it was a myth

 

[Dahlia_Rayn]

I have a hairy big toe and a hairy second toe, and you better believe I shave that off! Ick! I do have fine hair on my knuckles, but, it's not too bad, so I ignore it...If it ever gets awful it's gone!

Sorry, but I did have to ask, no need to be snide, I thought I was being pretty polite. I have always assumed that this is generally not a place people grow hair since neither myself nor anyone else in my family grows hair there (I believe Africans tend towards the more hairless end of the spectrum anyway). Even when I met my husband, who was quite hairy, I thought he was a special case, until I saw other white guys just as hairy also. Trust me, if you didn't grow up with hairiness being the norm, then it is does take a while to get used to the concept.

I've heard that from some people, but never ever noticed it to be true.

Yes, white people's feet normally look like this.

We have to take a weedwacker to them daily so as to fit into our shoes.

what!
Lucky much, lol

 

[frocher]

I don't grow hair there (just checked, lol) but if I did I would wax those puppies, not shave. I hate underarm and leg stubble so I imagine I would hate toe stubble too.

 

[jbid]

i wax and epilate them. yeah "them", i grow hair even on my pinky toe!
and i'm so glad to hear that i'm not the only one with finger hairs, b/c i always felt weird with my wedding ring covered in hair lol. i think it's an "hairy" armenian heritage.

 

[xoshopaholicxo]

My big toe is the only one w/ dark noticeable hair, about once a week I will go over it w/ a shaver. The top of my feet has a little hair too but i don't dare mess w/ that, I don't want it to resemble a hobbit's foot.

Hair happens. I don't desire to grow hair on my toes (as I am sure 99.9999% of the gals on here don't either), but it happens...and I shave it.

 

[lindas1983]

I never even noticed I had hairs on my toes until I saw this thread, but yip there they are a few little blonde ones which i'm gonna keep as they've never bothered me plus plucking is sore
