Should I shave my legs and thighs?
I am on my High School Swim Team and we are really good. We've won our league about 4 times in a row and the majority of Seniors are going on scholarships (one is going to Brown). I have pretty hairy legs and its not so much that they are pressuring me to shave, its mainly that I'm slightly insecure. I know it will not make me very much faster (if at all) but I plan on being on Varsity next year and would be interested in knowing any repercussions (ex hair growing thicker but I think that is a myth). I don't want to wax because that sounds EXTREMELY painful and summer is just around the corner. So to sum it all up: shave, trim, or leave as is? ( I plan on at least trimming though) THANKS!

Swim furry like chewbaca until just before your first meet. then shave one week before that. the added drag of the hair adds resistence,and in turn strength. its nice to win. its better to lap the competition. then you can amaze yourself. and oh yea. never use alcholol as an aftershave no matter what you heard. cold water and a cold water rinse will prevent bumps and ingrown hair.
