    Shaving Upper Legs?
    My mom thinks you are supposed to shave to your knee but everyone at my school shaves their upper legs also. I want to shave my upper legs also but I still live at home, so my mom would kill me. What is correct?

    I used to shave my upper legs, back when I was a teenager.

    Then I decided that that hair is so fair anyway that it wasn't worth the time and effort of shaving more than an inch above my knee.

    I have to agree. The only time that I even consider shaving above my knee is during bathing suit season. Remember, the more you shave the thicker and corser your hair will become, if you start shaving above the knee then you'll probably always have to.

    THe way I see it, if anyone is close enough to the upper part of your leg to see the tiny hairs there, then you should walk far away. Or, if you're like me, wack them on top of the head for being that close.
