So, i have blond hairs on my stomach and they don't look bad but they show up in the sun a lot and I don't like that. So, i shaved the bottom of my stomach like around and below my belly button. Well, that was a bad idea because now you can tell where i did it because of the hair on the top of my stomach. I dont wan't a hairy stomach but I dont want to shave my entire abdomen either. What do i do to make it look right and it not look so messes up?

But if you really want to get rid of them, you'd probably be better off with depilatories, which kind of "dissolve" the hair and you can just wipe it away after a bit. From my experience, the hairs grow out finer and more evenly than with shaving, and isn't painful like waxing could be (plus I don't think you'd want to WAX your abdomen). The only downsides I can think of are that A) it could get kind of messy, B) it smells kind of unpleasant, but it goes away, and C) it could irritate your skin if you have sensitive skin. Sample it on a small patch of skin first to see how your skin will react.
Try a brand like Nair or Veet, they're usually found in the aisles of the store where you'd find razors and shaving gels. They also have a lot of options, like straight-up creams, sets, etc. If you're in a pinch & end up shaving again, though, I've heard rolling on a bit of deodorant afterward over the area you shaved reduces the chance of little bumps, if that was your problem before.
