While I have a high pain tolerance it's way too much on more sensitive areas and often leads to infected bumps. I have very sensitive skin so I can't use any type of chemicals. The depilatories for allergies or sensitive skin are not strong enough to get rid of my hair. It takes leaving it on extra minutes and usually doing it again the next day which risks setting off a reaction even with the most mild ones. Finally I get absolutely horrible ingrown hairs if I shave too close no matter how much I scrub and exfoliate the area and shaving with the grain just leaves this very itchy stubble. I've been using a remington electric razor on my legs between waxing but it cuts the thick pubic hair at a very sharp angle. Aside from being pokey it often gets stuck in my underwear and pulls. I ended up resorting to scissors for the past year but I can't cut even. I find myself with short nearly bare strips next to longer sections. It's fuctional but doesn't look good and I just started going out with a new guy.
Is there a razor/trimmer that would cut the hair flatter or any other way to keep it timmed evenly? I really like removing it all but so far that just leads to pain and other complictions so I'd be content to just keep it a little shorter. I really don't want to have to use a permanent hair removal method.

Hi - yes - i get where your coming from . It can be a problem for a lot of women , well...all of us who remove ...
Its a nightmare keeping on top of it and a pain in the backside whenit regrows ...ive found in the summer ...i first take the scissors and trim on the top and underneath - i like to keep that short anyway most times , hygiene!.
Then afterkiving a light trim i take a pair of tweezers - and you need a good few hours for this or do it oneday and finish it the next , and with the shorter hairs ive trimmed , so i can see what im doing , pull the skin "taught" a bit just like you do with eyebrows and i pluck one by one !!
, yeh, it takes ages but after youve done it this way for a while you get so used to it ..like the beauty parlour, you can do it really quickly, put some music on and its something to listen to while you go about it
...i pluck up the sides on the top to whatever width i want ...depending on the landing strip look, or the brazilian !! then using a mirror
...i sit back on the bed or something on clean towel to catch the hairs...and i lean in a bit and pulll the skin taught on the tps of my thighs and do the same ...i look down in th mirror at an angle to get the arkward hairs right underneath ...neck aches a bit but worth it in the end and they take much much longer to grow back if taken from the root , carefully do it so you pull the hair out in the direction its growing...there are templates you can buy in stores if you prefer a shape , such as a heart but i trim , and draw on the size of the heart faintly with eyeliner or lipliner and then pluck arount that to get a clear defined heart shape ...if there are any spare hairs undeneath , between legs and back !!! i use aloe shaving foam and razor BE CAREFUL ...i have nicked myself a lot of times including right on inside where the hair starts ...ooooowwwwh
afterwards a special skin cream and no panties to let the area calm down (a bit red) and thats it ...but i agree once you start to do it it can be difficult to maintain so best to make aside some "you" time to pamper yourself.
Its nice to look nice and im sure yur guy will appriciate ...sometimmes i go natural but i still trim with scissors so i dont look too hairy ...dark haired girls seem to have a bit more or thicker ...im dark haired
