What's the history behind women shaving their legs?

When did women start shaving the hair off their legs and under arms and any where else they shave?

  • I'm not asking what birth age they start doing this I'm wondering what time in history did they start doing it and do they do it all over the world or just in the U.S and I ...show more

  • Answer:

    Umm, Prometheus, think about where women have hair that they might want to shave - - and I don't mean on their heads. Ever hear of a Brazilian wax job?

well, where else would they possibly shave,? I believe the first one to promote lady shaving was the Remington shaver company (Or it might have been Schick; one of the two anyway) . The company was going under and they had to come up with a new gimmick to save the company... lady shaving was this idea.

They also do it in Scotland, and Northern Ireland and Wales as well as England. All these countries come under the United Kingdom, so you could've just said that instead of just England. I'm sure they do it in the Republic of Ireland too. And Australia..New Zealand..Canada...all the main English speaking countries. Western European countries as well. Not sure about the rest of world and exactly when it came along.
