SWR - first dress fitting and unshaven legs...

Asian~Wife, on July 13, 2010 at 1:13 PM

Posted in Wedding Attire 27

I just realized this morning that I am going to have to go to my first fitting on Friday with uber hairy legs. I have a waxing appt on Saturday morning so I can't shave. I am super embarrassed.. should I be upfront with the shop lady when she helps me put the dress on? And just laugh about it?...

I am super embarrassed.. should I be upfront with the shop lady when she helps me put the dress on? And just laugh about it? Ignore it and say nothing? Help! It's probably silly to worry about, but I feel very self-conscious about it.

    Kali, your so funny!!! I got news for you girls...in the winter, I try not to shave too much...paranoid about how shaving makes them grow back thicker and faster...When we first started dating, I gave FH a lil peptalk and said, I donno why girls have to shave their legs all the time, first things first it makes it grow faster, thicker....bla bla and it is unfair to expect .... then he goes, you are right! I dont really care personally if you dont shave. So I only shave my legs whenever I feel it needs it and in the summer. Only dont want to be caught dead with armpit hair and hair down underSmiley sad At any given time!!!

    So dear girl, there are so many of us that dont think it is a big deal to go to a fitting with unshaven legs....

    You girls are too sweet.. I wish everyone was so vocal about it.. maybe then I wouldn't feel like I needed to be freshly shaven all the time!

    I am the same way, I only shave my legs if I am wearing a skirt or shorts. Although my hair is blonde and baby fine.

    FS doesn't even notice... in fact... when they are hairy, he tells me how soft they are, which cracks me up. He's a weirdo Smiley smile

    I wish I didn't have to shave every other day or two. My FS notices when it's been like 2-3 days. lol So I try to shave more often, and if I could save money I would so get that laser hair removal on my legs!

    I shave every. single. day. Legs and armpits. I can't stand the way the hair feels against clothes and whatnot. So, unless I'm super sick, I will make sure that I have time to shave. And I asked FH if he appreciated that I shave and keep everything groomed and he said "Very much so." but he has never ASKED me to keep things well groomed. I'm just OCD about it.

    @go4me77--sorry but no one has the time to go snooping around and tattling to future spouses on fb..that is just a little bit "out there"
