Laser hair removal

That's both expensive and not available where I live :P It is the long term goal however.

There's also creams that remove hair, but it isn't available here so I cannot attest to efficacy.

Sorry, didn't know considering there was no context whatsoever.

For a good shave I recommend baby oil, shaving cream and a good deodorant which you can use to both smell nice and kill bacteria after a shave. Be sure to pull skill back to expose further the hairs for a cleaner shave (It can easily cause a cut however, so be extremely careful).

I'm not pre-everything, but I'm not exactly rich either, but my long term goal is the same as yours, and unfortunately Laser Hair Removal is the only way for it to not grow back.

The meme was only tangentially relevant. I'm one year on HRT as of a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for the advice <3 I have a safety razor, I use a special oil and cream, and I pull back skin to get a cleaner shave, but unfortunately if I want a clean shave it always results in tons and tons of blood. Some from cuts, some from razor bumps being sliced off. I can get about one good shave without blood and then if I shave within a week of that I'll be mostly red from blood :(

I have a good cream that's supposed to help with razor burns and such. Perhaps the products I use aren't right for me.

Edit: Oh yeah I maybe already mentioned the hrt thing.
