I have shaved most of it for a long time, but my husband likes it bald, so once in a while I do that for him, then complain because it itches, but if I put lotion on after I pat it dry, it's not so bad. My husband has started shaving at my request and says it itches once in a while, but not to bad. I let my husband do a Brazilian wax to me the other night, and I think I'll stick to shaving, the stubble is easier to deal with then the pain!
