    No, not dry, it's important that the skin is moist when you shave; it's just that the skin gets really delicate after being soaked for a long time in the water, that you can more easily cut yourself (guess it also depends on how long you shower!). If I don't feel like troubling myself with Veet wax, I use Veet in-shower cream that needs to sit for 3-4 minutes before you can start removing the hair; so for that you're advised to shave/remove the hair while you're showering when using it. I just know it's not too nice for the skin if you shave/pluck/wax after being exposed to water for a longer time; though it's easier to shave after, it's best to shave whilst taking a shower and being aware not to soak for too long before.

    Oh wow.

    I need to try this sometime.

    Normally I just lay back and ponder stuff until I fall asleep.

    This seems more interesting.

    I don't have a bath in my flat therefore I'm kinda forced in to saying Shower, however nothing beats this one place I went to with a jaccuzzi bath-tub seriously freaking awesome if I ever got to design/buy my ideal home thats the kind of bath-tub I want but I want a seperate shower so I can still have a quick shower before work/when not feeling like a bath.

    You don't soak your legs in a shower though, sara! Only the bottoms of your feet xD

    I've used veet before, and it didn't work very well for me anyway.

    Exactly! I don't have the time to have a bath every morning before I go to work, so showers are more convienient. I try to have a bath once every couple of weeks or so just 'cause they're really relaxing.

    I like both, but only when the tub I'm using is freshly cleaned and no one else has showered in it yet. As far as baths go anyway.

    I think I'll take a shower here in just a little bit.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Shower, definitely. It's been many years since my last bath.

    I remember the last time my friends and I time travelled together, we bathed together and it was pretty fun.

    EDIT: I think the correct term is called "Sauna"

    But usually during normal days, I will shower due to space constraint and besides, it's faster!

    I prefer showers! One time I tried taking a bath but I noticed that I'm too big for the bathtub. Which really sucks. Baths can be very relaxing. Le sigh.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I know, that's not what I meant, Allie. xD I'm saying the skin cells shouldn't be exposed to water for too long if you want to shave or pluck or wax afterwards (regardless if your skin is soaked in still water like in a bath, or exposed to continuously running water like in a shower). I mean, I for one stay in the shower for at least 30 min, which is too long. xD

    Veet is awesome. Always worked for me~

    Veet almost burnt my entire leg off, but that was on own fault because I decided to get ice cream in between shaving my legs.

    I hate veet, doesn't work I never knew about the whole not shaving after being in water for ages, I thought that was the best way to do it.

    Yeah, my bath/shower is weird so I have to do both at the same time XD my shower isn't fixed to the wall so you have to hold it above your head, but I can't be bothered to stand up and hold it so I always sit in the bath while holding it. I put the plug in a let the bath fill up really slowly while showering
