It’s a conversation we don’t tend to have, but I’m sure I’m not the only woman curious about what other women opt for hair-wise...‘down below’. Do you have a fully-grown bush, popular in the 70s?

But with my 40th birthday approaching in September 2019, I began thinking about keeping up with the latest Hollywood trend.
A single mum to two daughters, 19 and 17, I wanted to try something I’d never tried before and I convinced myself that a bikini wax would leave me feeling sexier and more youthful. So I phoned my local salon and booked an appointment for the following morning. It would cost £23 – which seemed fair to me.
