is it average & normal, that body hair starts grow the same day after shave, example in the morning i shaved my legs & in the evening hair already started to come out on the surface. After depilatory cream smooth legs would last 2 days only, 3rd day it alreadycomes out on the surface. I spoke w/my friend she says wax last her 2 month or more, for me it would work arnd 2 or 2 1/2 weeks. I know, hair ingrow depends on the season, but im talking about winter season when body hair suppose to be slow. So girls, i wanted to ask ur opinion, is it normal ?

It is normal in some people and in others it is not. I normally shave my legs every night. Even in the winter. My daughter is the same. I think it is a gene thing. Also, my daughter has dark hair and when you have dark hair it just shows up easier. She had to start shaving her legs early also. I did too... My nephew's wife does not need to shave at all, no hair on legs or underarms. Strange isn't it? To be so lucky, no prickly legs ever.. You might try some different types of hair removal if it bothers you or ask a dermatologist... Hope this has helped.

Yes. At first the hair grows back qicker than it does for a woman who has been shaving or waxing for a long time.
The more often you do it, the slower the hair will grow back.
After a few years of waxing(which works the best), I have found that now I can go about 6 weeks before having to wax again.
In fact, there are areas that the hair does not grow back at all now. Not ever. Just keep waxing or shaving and soon your skin will be stubble free for a very long time.
At first, I had the same problem as you. That was about 2 to 3 years ago.

I think that it depends on the girl. I don't use depilatories but I shave and/or wax. When I shave it usually lasts me 4--5 days. When I wax it lasts about 3 weeks to a month, so I can't really say.

yes very normal i shave my legs for instance in the morning when i take a shower and them i put hydration creme on them, and then let dry and put clothing on! Well, when I get home from work; hair is already showing stuble my doctor said it was okay some people have busy hair folicles that work 24/7 and that could also be because of low-metabolism so i would not stress about it everyones bodies are different but some of the same problems

I have the same problem. My hair grows fast and is thick and dark. Depilatories never worked for me. I just got used to shaving a lot and made friends with the tweezer.

Shave less often, especially in the winter. The more often you shave, the faster it will grow back. If you can let it go for a while you'll find that each time you do, it will take loner to grow back.

Yes it's normal. Try Olive Oil the one you use for cooking. rub some on your legs and then shave. You'll have smooth legs for about a week.

of course it's normal. that's why we women always shave our legs everyday, or so it seems according to statistics. think about it, men's facial hair grows about the same rate. ever hear of a five oclock shadow? same thing, different place!
