Ambitious DIY Pube Grooming Could Land You in the ER
LatestPeople are apparently awful at removing their own pubic hair. Maybe because it’s so hard to get a good angle for a decent view down there? Whatever the case, a new study shows that the number of pubic hair grooming-related emergency room visits have increased five times over between 2002 and 2010.
The study is based on an analysis of ER visits conducted by scientists at the University of California, San Francisco. People—both men and women—who botched their shaving or at-home waxing kits showed up at hospitals with cuts, burns, gashes, and rashes among things. There wer 2500 such injuries in 2010 alone.
