not your face first of all. Don't EVER try to shave your face even if you have a little fuz and you want a quick fix... it will come back thicker and the hairs will come back black so dont do it! Next shaving your legs is a must, unless your wearing pants then you don't have to. Your private area.. that is optional but I recommend trimming if you prefer not to shave because sometimes your skin is very sensitive down there so maybe waxing would be a better option. DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT shave your arms, if you think you have hairy arms just trim them thats what I do if i see long hairs. Shaving your armpits is a must too, if you do not shave your arms odor starts to build and it just isn't pleasant. Shaving your toes is a plus if you have hair on your toes. Other than that, that should be it! Enjoy!:)

In my opinion if you want to shave it......shave it! no part of your body will be damaged by you shaving it...but you have to take into consideration that if you have it once...the hair will grow back thicker and more frequent...so only do it if you feel sure that you will want to keep up the shaving. Don't forget waxing too....it doesn't hurt as much as people say it does and well...hair grows back thinner and less frequent with waxing! But with waxing it is always best to get it done by a professional or a trusted friend, that way you wont give in after a few waxed spots and also they will be able to help you with after care like moisturising.

Honestly, you can shave anything. It is a myth that hair grows back darker or thicker after it is shaved.
There are cons to shaving any body part. (The pros are obvious, so I won't cover them.)
Head: You'll be bald, and you probably don't know what your head looks like under your hair!
Face: Cuts take awhile to heal on the face, especially if it's not used to being shaved.
Armpits: Razorburn, hair grows back quickly
Arms: People MIGHT notice if hair goes from thick to non-existent overnight. Also, many spots are hard to reach and you may end up with patches.
Stomach/Back/Chest: Easy to miss spots, easy to get nicks from the razor since you can't see everywhere.
Bikini area: Itchy, painful razorburn! I recommend wearing loose, cotton underwear or going commando for at least 12 hours afterwards.
Legs: Nicks, cuts, and hard to reach places (behind knees especially!)
Feet/toes: Hair grows back quickly.
The only body part I would recommend NEVER shaving is eyebrows. It is too hard to keep the shape's integrity with a bulky razor!
Hope that covered everything you ever wanted...or didn't want...to know!

I say its okay to shave anything but your eyebrows and arms. Everything else is okay. Eyebrows you shouldn't shave because its makes them grow back horrible and quickly and your arms due to the same reason. Although it may be controversial everything else is "OK"

Shave anything you want chick!
Be aware of ingrown hairs though, avoid those little painful demons by giving yourself a good scrub in the shower to get rid of the dead skin.

For women? I wasn't aware of anything that's not OK to shave other than your sisters head or the neighbors cat.

just dont shave your peach with a razor....shave bumps galore and itching (if you want that hair removed, go to a professional)
try not to shave anything that you dont want hairier some time down the road
shave your legs and pits only...maybe your forearms

You can shave anything below your neck...and if you want really short hair you can shave your head...I'd stay away from your face.
If you are shaving your private area I would be VERY careful.

it's okay to shave anything that has hair. I would avoid your head, eyebrows and eyelashes though, and your forearms unless they are really bad, otherwise everything is game.
