An electic razor is easiest(not a disposable one, it won't do the trick). An electric one for women, your dad won;t appreciate you using his! :-)
You can pick them up cheap, it doesn;t have to be expensive.
Hair removal cream is another option, it's painless but messy and takes ages, especially if your starting from scratch as you are.
I used to use this method but got so bored of waiting around for it to work that i switched to the electric razor method, it's much faster and easier.
As for telling your mum, you could ask her to get you an electric razor and say it's for your legs if your not confident enough so tell her the other reason you want it.
Or the best thing would be to tell her you've been learning about femenin hygine at school and you've learnt that shaving that area is the best way to keep it clean and prevent infections at that time of the month (which is very true :-) )
so you'd like to start doing that, you only need to do it around once a month and it's harmless. [ chakra's advice column | Ask chakra A Question ]
