Hi haha, just wondering what everyone did for hair on the back of your thighs, butt, etc. I don't really feel like a razor will get the job done and i'm not too sure if a electric shaver would do it either but... i just dunno. Decided to post to see what everyone else who is down the road in their journey did.

Thanks! ~ Grace

I let the hrt take care of it but if you're not on hrt yet, or if it's not working on your body hair, you could always have it waxed. Most salons that provide the service have both male and female customers.

Personally, I sugar all my hair away. Sugaring is very similar to waxing except it hurts somewhat less and you use a product made from sugar instead of wax. The sugar can be reused and it's faster that waxing once you know what you're doing. If you google sugar or sugaring or search on ehow.com you should get some results on how to make your own sugar and how to use it and how to prevent ingrown hairs after use if you're interested.

I believe you can also get a professional waxing (and in some cities sugaring) done... I'm not 100% on the terminology but I think it would be the Brazilian wax for just the backs of your thighs and your behind and Brazilian extended for between the cheeks if that is a problem area as well. Might want to double check the terminology but if that is correct it's the same for Laser hair removal in those areas as well.

Hope this helps.

Well, I guess I'm just declasse.

About once a week, I simply lather said buns with conventional shaving cream, brandish the old traditional guys' razor (because I've found they work the best for said task) and simply shave away with blind faith and giddy abandon. A deft touch is required. Naturally, I do this in the shower and simply rinse when I'm done. Just that easy.

As I said, the nice thing about class is having some. Now, if only I could find some, well, then maybe I'd have it.

Peace :thumbsup: Lacey

HA! What a topic! I mean it is germane, but WHAT A TOPIC!

Hummmm

I crossdressed (I thought that was what I was doing, maybe, for a long time - 50 plus years) so I found out that shaving 'back there' was sort of a short lived pleasure. Unless you shave every day it starts growing out and the stubble is horribly itchy. I used talcum powder to ease the itching.

Later? I learned to use a razor comb, which left a short part of the hair but not an itchy stubble. It looked good, sort of, but it was not smooth like shaving.

Then I started using an epilator on my legs, and going higher and higher! YIKES, be careful with that! But the effects were about two weeks BUT you have bad bacteria in that area so sanitize the epilator head when you are done... and do that area last.

Now? HRT = no body hair well, some like a woman has. So it is something I rarely think about anymore.

I hope this helps.

...I just shave it off. It's not that difficult and doesn't require much contortioning to do. It's a lot easier and faster than shaving your..um...well the ol' twig n berries area....which I think qualifies as a TMI now. Boy this is awkward...

Let me let you all in on a little secret. It's called the Headblade. I used one for years for shaving my head since I also suffer from male pattern baldness in spots. But I've discovered that it works really well in lots of other areas too. The specialized shape which controls the movement across the skin makes it very difficult to cut yourself in most areas too. Of course on the head I'm now letting that grow out, and using Minoxidil to try to stimulate new growth in the bad spots. I plan to eventually discuss finasteride with my therapist too and honestly, at least on top, I think I may need hair transplants to make everything look good but we'll see.

What I'd really like to be able to do is take hair from elsewhere and use it on the head!

Well, I just sit on a big photo-copy machine and hit "Copy"

Not only does it burn the hair off, but it gives you a great pic of what it now looks like! TA DA.......

Hmmm...

Dive in, or take a 'pass'?

he he he...

I've found that I am far more flexible now that I am 5 months into HRT, my bones and muscles and sinews just don't bind me as tightly as they once did, and now, finally, I can sit in a hot bath and comfortably toss a leg over a shoulder and SEE what I used to shave blindly in the past,..

Talk about an EYE opener!

Fortunately. HRT has reduced hair count and growth rates in that area substantially, so the 'leg toss' only happens about twice a month now, instead of every other day like it used to be.. :)

Multi-blade men's shavers work well for me, no complaints!

Love and far, far TMI, Svenna :)

I'm with Lizzie on this one. Epilator is the only way for me! Shaving leaves me with painful stubble and ingrown hairs, and I KNOW i'm not waxing back there. What an angle! I'm not comfortable asking my wife to do that either, so yeah, epilator works great.

Agreed. Just make sure you have shorter hair there (an electric beard trimmer is AWESOME for this!)...epilating long hair hurts something fierce!

I use a Remington Smooth 'n Silky epilator. I wish I could reach the top of my shoulders and back as easily as I can those lower regions!

      Reasonable expectations when starting HRT in your 50s

      By MaybeRob · Posted

      In my case, at almost 9 months, most changes have been very subtle. I was 60 when I started, and overweight. Also, I am not very observant when it comes to changes. In the last 3 months I have been on T blockers and breast growth have definitely started having suffered irregular "ouchies", but at the same time I have been slowly losing fat, so Bust measurements have not changed. What has changed in the density, I can feel a difference. Face wise the skin feels softer, and my lashes seem to be more visible. Head hair regrowth is a maybe- maybe not situation.  I do have to select men's clothing carefully to camouflage the change in breast shape. I guess I'm still at the not passable as a female stage especially with no makeup. I'm also over 6 foot and well over 100kgs which I guess is problematic to start with!   Hope this helps somewhat   Kate .

      Reasonable expectations when starting HRT in your 50s

      By EasyE · Posted

      I started feminizing HRT about 6-7 weeks ago. I began with what I called the beginner's patch. I immediately found myself wanting to level up to the next dose and did that this week (yay!). So far, I am enjoying the ride.   I've read everything I can find on this topic. For the HRT vets on here, what is reasonable to expect in terms of physical changes for someone starting in their 50s? I know "your mileage may vary." I guess I am curious if I stay on my current trajectory for six months, a year, multiple years, how pronounced will the physical changes be? Will I reach a point where it is totally obvious or will I land in a "middle zone" somewhere in which I could pass either way?   Thanks! Like I said I am enjoying the ride so far and always curious to know others' experiences. Not sure anyone else in my life will be excited about these moves I am making, but I have been over that in many places on here already so need to rehash... Love and blessings to all!   Easy

      Being admitted into the hospital after a long ER visit. I started passing lots of blood and they are keeping me for observation.    Nurse came in to see about a condom catheter, that of course doesn't work on me. 🤣   She said, "I guess we will use incontinence supplies on you."

      Appeals Court: State Health Ins Plans (Medicaid) Must Cover Trans Care

      By Ivy · Posted

      Yeah.  I think this is what it is about.  Since they are not transgender, nobody else could possibly be either.  I'm not sure that a cisgender person can understand being transgender.  But that hardly means that a transgender person's experience is not real - just because it is not theirs. Why is a transgendered person's experience not valid, while a cisgendered person's is?  Why should it be the cisgendered person that decides? Nobody is forcing a cis person to transition.  What I do for myself is my own business.

      By Abigail Genevieve · Posted

      I've been thinking it is a matter of belief.  They simply do not believe someone can validly be transgender and should not be allowed to practice their beliefs, but should be forced to practice their belief, that is, that there is no such thing as transgender and it is all mental illness/sin/hormonal imbalance.

      I am really kind of sick of everybody who is not transgender deciding on what we need and do not need in the way of procedures. They act like all of this is play acting, and we can just apply cosmetics to our entire body. It might be refreshing if someone asked us directly what services we need in order to transition. I could say more as I am frustrated, but I do not want to violate the TOS.
