Have yourself a hairy little Christmas (Day 277)…

December 2, 2007

I’ve already written about my various green hair-removal techniques, but now, I’ve decided to take things one step further now and not shave my legs anymore. This may sound like another move only a card-carrying hippie would make, but in reality, it’s not that extreme. My leg hair is very fine; even if it’s half an inch long, you can only see it if you get close-up (and let’s be honest, not many people are going to be staring intently at my gams anytime soon). Plus, it’s winter — a huge dump of snow just landed in Toronto so it’s officially pants weather, and if I wear a skirt, I’ll also wear tights. This will save using up my razors, my shaving cream, a sink full of water and the extra moisturizer I’d apply after. It’ll be a hairier Christmas than usual, but at least I’ll have another layer of warmth.
