Maintance issue on my....

So as a newbie, I haven’t got any bike maintenance issue so far, but i do have a maintenance issue regarding my body components.

Long story short, I've decided to shave my legs to give me a pro-like identity (please don’t judge me i know I'm hypercritical)

The problem is, I’d like to know how likely would you guys shaving your legs for a long-term hair reduction purpose

Say on the scale from 1-7 (1 being extremely unlikely, and 7 being extremely likely)

On a scale of 1-7
Those people are already commenting on the other two shaving threads currently in the General Cycling Forum, where they should be!

Interestingly, even many pro mechanics don't shave their legs...

Look it up.

It's terrible when one needs validation from others to do something of a somewhat personal nature and preference.

Or perhaps you need help with your razor or shaver?
