S!	Id just go up to the knee. The hair above your knee isnt that noticeable since your leg hairs still blonde. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

You actually don't know me.	Lol, I always do my whole leg. Personally, I do think it's gross to not shave your whole leg. If your leg hair is brown I would DEFINITELY shave my whole leg. My friend has blonde leg hair but she only shaves up to the knee and I think it looks like she has fur on her leg! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Annegelica	Just shave to the knee your first time.... your frend is right you will regret it i did if you go up any farther. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

~Marina~D~	Well, it depends on what you'll wear. If you tend to wear a skirt, shorts or a swimsuit, you may wanna shave the whole leg. If you'll just wear Bermuda shorts, jeans or Capri's, then you can just shave to your knee. I always shave my whole leg. You don't even feel anything uncomfortable, the only thing about it is when its growing back, its spiky. I would just shave the whole leg cause makes you feel more cleaner. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sarah	I don't know why it was uncomfortable to your friend... I've never had that problem. I think the only thing that will make it uncomfortable is if you use a bad or dull razor or you get a lot of nicks and cuts or if you use a product that makes your legs break out. Just do whatever is comfortable to you! It'll take a while and a little bit of experimenting to see just how sensitive your legs are--like I can't use certain razors or shave gel. Sadly, you have to learn from experience. Good luck! :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

volleyballer53	go past your knee...but get ur moms approval first!!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥ Laurraaa	i like to do it in sections. first i start from my thigh to my knee, then i shave my knee, then i shave under my knee. but if it's your first time, just take it slow. i'd recommend doing just till your knee to see how it feels. your friend is wrong, it's not gross, it's just hair and you've had it your whole life, so leaving it on till you get used to the feeling isn't bad. besides, if you're comfortable with the feeling, shave the rest of it the next day. good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

crazycaligrl15	first off its a matter of personal preference. for the first time shaving i would reccomend that you just go just slightly past your knee. don't worry what your other friend thinks Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dancer14	i would just go about an inch above the knee or just to the knee. most of the time it is best to listen to your mom. but i would say that you should not shave your thigh unless necesarry, because it really is a pain in tha but to have to do that every time you shave!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Faith95	ya listen to your mom when i first shaved i did it to my knee then i did my whole leg!! i think that's the best way for beginners. good luck!! =) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tony	heyy gurly!=] well it kind of depends on if you were shorts, skirts or anything where ur upper legs are showing. if you do, than if you do shave at all, shave the whole leg bc its gonna look weird with half a leg shaved, you know wat i mean. but if your leg is covered most of the time, than dont worry about, just get comfortable with shaving first and then try shaving all the way. and dont always listen to wat ur friends say, do wat u think u should do first, then listen to ur friends. trust me, u dont wanna regret doing anything just bc ur friends tell you to. good luck babe! .<3 Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lananas1988	If you have light colored hair there is no reason to shave your whole leg because you can barely see the hair from the knee up. I have light colored hair and I usually don't shave my whole leg. I also don't wear shorts or really anything that short, so I don't really need to. It doesn't hurt however if you do shave past the knee, I don't know what your friend is talking about. Shave as far as you feel you should, they're your legs after all. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

yahoogurl	shave to the knee. then the second time shave a little bit abouve the knee. each time get a little higher. and dont apply 2 much pressure. u'll cut ur self. use shaveing cream always, and make sure ur legs r really wet so u wont get razor burn. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

*Paws 4 Thawts!♥•¨•♥•¨•♥*	Heya, Do what you feel comfortable with and what you feel comfortable with only my sweety. But it would be best if you go up to the knee first this will give you a bit of confidence using a razor, then when you feel a bit more confident go all the way up to the top of your leg. Its just a matter of getting used to the razor and gain confidence using a razor. You do what you feel ready before. Let no one direct you any different. Hope i helped x Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lydia D	Well first off, forget what other people do. Its up to you because everyone is different. Moms recommend part of the leg because it scares them that their kids are shaving. Shaving only up to the knee is a good idea if your wearing long shorts of capris. For some, when you shave the whole leg, there can be extreme irritation for first times and even for those who do it their whole lives. It again depends on the person because some people have little to no hair or have very fine or very think hair. Take into consideration how thick it is. If its thick, there might be some irritation. Since your so young, I recommend just trying out half the leg, then move your way up. Its like mom always said, what happens if you get into an accident and they have to take off your clothes and find you have dirty underwear. Same goes here, imagine how the doctors may react if they see half a leg shaved. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Alison M	Wayyyyyy listen to your mom my mom said that and i didnt listen to her and I regret it!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥Strength and Perseverance♥	If your hair isn't that noticeable and you're not planning on wearing anything that shows that area than just shave up to the knee. It's pointless otherwise. You probably don't even need to shave there even if you do wear shorts since it's blonde. And it is very annoying to shave your whole leg and it can be uncomfortable when it starts growing back. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

grace.schlumpf	I've been shaving for a couple years now and I always shave up to a few inches above the knee. I dont shave my whole thigh because, well, its just a hassle. Listen to your mother, she knows best. Good Luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

BeachBunny	Just go up to the knee. There's no need to do the whole leg if your hair is blonde and unnoticeable. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

3595	I've always only shaved to my knee, and I started shaving 6 years ago. Above there, I don't really get hairy, just "downy" which I've never had a problem with. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

miss nick jonas	up to your knee is totally fine, but when the hair starts to get darker, is when you need to start shaving farther up!! good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Emma	Well, if your not gonna wear short shorts, just shave a little past the knee. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Go McCain/Palin 2008	Since you may get razor bumps afterwards, try only half the leg first, then try the rest later. I had such a miserable time after I shaved the first time since my leg itched so bad from razor burn so thats why I would have to suggest taking it slow. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

asia	well my first time i just shaved up to my knees, then after i got used to it i started to shave up my whole leg, then after that i shaved my arms. so i guess you can if you want to your first time. it won't feel that weird. everyone's different. if you want to i guess you can, if you don't want to don't. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Teachr	I suppose that depends on what you plan on wearing, and how dense your hair is. If your hairs get finer, as you go higher up on your leg, then you may be able to get away with never shaving your thighs. On the other hand, if your thighs are quite hairy, you might want to avoid embarressment and shave all the way up. Personally, I would only do that if I'm going to be wearing very short shorts, or a bathing suit...Otherwise...there's no point! If no-one sees it...it's just as good as not being there!
