Trying to get rid of the hair-down-there. Any ideas of doing so without getting it professionally done? I'm way to shy for those situations.

Easy- if you like a lot of pain, get a waxing kit, or if you want to get most of it off you can use a trimmer(like bikini touch), or a womans trimmer, or you can just shave it(the most discreet), but its tricky for the first time. If you shave, make sure you get a bowl of warm water, and shaving cream.first, put the warm water on it before the shaving cream, that way the hair gets softer, then after putting on the shaving cream, leave it on for a couple of minutes to moisten the skin and hair. Then when you start to shave it, go with the hair, then you can go against it. what really helps with bumps when your done is witch hazel, or some feminine after shaving lotion. Trust me, i got most of this info from a lady doctor

If you shave with the hairline, as opposed to against it, you won't get the red bumps and irritation. The cons are that it grows back fast and sharp. I never had much luck with Nair, it stinks something awful and the hair is back in a couple of days anyway.
Sally Hanson used to make these wax strips that were more like tape than wax. You just peel the back off, pull the skin tight, stick it on, and yank it off against the grain. I used to do my bikini line that way all the time, and the hair stays gone for a few weeks. I haven't seen those in a while, just keep seeing the wax strips, but I bet Ulta or some big beauty place would have them.

shave...just remember that it WILL grow back and need to be re-shaved
hair-removal cream, such as Veet, Nair, or Neet...be careful not to get it on spots where the package instructions say it should not be used
waxing...don't try this at home -- you just might burn something; go have it done at a salon, they know what they are doing, and you will likely have a female aesthetician....
laser hair removal...takes about 6-8 treatments, probably won't work too well on you if you are a NATURAL blonde...the laser light is attracted by the pigment in the hair
electrolysis...time consuming, expensive, don't expect to be done in one session

You can shave it, but often times this created red bumps from the irritation. I would suggest using a product like Nair (but just be careful) or getting an at home waxing kit.

Well you could use a razor but it is not as close. You can get hair removal creams or lotions at wal-mart and they are a lot less painful than wax. But be sure to test a small area first and make sure it does not irritate your skin.

Shaving or home waxing. Go to a store like CVS or Eckereds or another drug store and look for hair removal creams or something like that.

I guess you could shave it. You could check a drug store for some kit to do it or something. I can't think of any other way...
