    I'd suggest waxing- it should work if it's a decent enough kit and you do it right. The ones at the drugstores (the popular brand) that are pre-made strips work great for my underarms, but be warned when you do use them right, they hurt. Good luck and if all else fails, just try to be happy the way you are, as dumb as that may sound. Because if it turns out you can't do anything about it, why let it bother you and waste energy on something you can't fix?

      Cheshire, I think what you meant by that was, you can't handle the look, you want it gone, at least I hope so, because the people that replied were actually sharing simular stories and stating basically that we should accept ourselves how we are and love and embrase that.

      They do.. So, actually that is helpful.

      Don't disregard that honestly, we all have things we don't like about ourselves... but don't work yourself up..

        If tweezing is the only thing that has been working, have you tried an automatic tweezer? I used one that I saw on an infomercial called "Tweeze." It plucks really fast but isn't very precise at all. I think it would work well for your needs though!

            How come wax has no effect at all?? Of course it has effects, it removes your hair like crazy, ha! but it grows back in two weeks.. only need to wax again though. It's the best way rather than shaving. Shaving causes ingrown hairs -_-

              you can try waxing or sugaring.. your hair wont grow back as fast as like you shave. Even if they grow back, they'll grow smoother. at least thats what I felt and see.

                I actually used to date a girl with this. It may sound silly, but I actually used to like to play with it. I used to think it was the cutest. Just a viewpoint from a guy to possibly ease your mind about it. If you personnally dont like it I can understand, but if it's cause you worry about what a guy will think dont stress. Good luck.

                  It's called a treasure trail. I am sure most women have one. It has never bothered me in the least. Unless it bothers you or it's unusually dark and coarse, I wouldn't worry about it. I honestly do not think men give treasure trails a second thought unless they hope to follow it.

                  It does appear that women worry more about hair on their bodies than men. Shave your armpits & legs and keep your pubic area from spreading down your thighs and you're good to go. Oh, some women have to wax their upper lips. I'm good with that. But I wouldn't even worry about treasure trails. When I was in my late teens, treasure trails were thought to be desirable. I remember one of my first girl friends telling me to follow her treasure trail.

                    Funny you should say that Taos, as I remember the same thing from high school. It was thought to be sexy back then and was a great joy if she would let you trace it and eventually follow it. Man that brings back so many memories.

                      How about plucking it. That's how I get rid of most of the hair I don't want. I'll grow back in time but it takes awhile.
