I recently saw Inara Byrne when she was in NY. It was a great experience but more interesting was that she was unshaven below. I found this unusual and quite sexy. I am curious as to how many providers are unshaven and also on the board's thoughts on this. I would be interested in experiencing this again if the provider stars aligned.

Zoey Zacquery has said frequently that she's unshaven on her privates, I'm sure there are others too.  I agree that on certain ladies, it's really attractive.

I suppose I can say that there are definitely a few providers in NYC who seem to keep some hair down there.  Most who keep some hair also shave some of it off.  Landing strips and trimmed areas seem more popular than full bushes.  If you expand your lens to providers all over the US, then there are lots.  Especially in CA.  On another discussion board popular in the Deep South (which I can't name here since it's a TER competitor in that region) there is a whole thread about providers with natural kitties / natural body hair with over a hundred comments in which many providers mention being natural down there.  I've never seen a substantial thread here about it, but maybe that's also because posts sink down the page faster here rather than being revived to the top of the page with new comments, so any conversation about this inevitably gets buried.

I used to keep my kitty natural as a teenager when I was first coming into my sexuality and I loved it.  Then I went back and forth over the years as far as shaving or not, depending on my mood, my partner's preference, etc.  I could go either way.  Then when I became a provider I thought I certainly had to shave since that's what everyone else seemed to be doing.  I did that for a few years and realized over time that I actually missed having my body hair.  I would let it grow when I took breaks from providing, but that never allowed it to get very thick or substantial as I never took more than a month or so away.

When I moved to NYC in November, I had very few clients here and knew I'd be "starting over" in some ways, so I decided to take the plunge and switch to an all-natural grooming regime - all over my body too, not just with regards to my kitty.  So now I no longer shave any of my body hair and I absolutely love the way it looks and feels.  It seems like NYC really appreciates it too, because now I have many more requests than I can ever seem to accept (especially since this is a part-time endeavor for me).

Lots of gentlemen love a woman with body hair (or some only enjoy pubic hair and not the rest, although I have to admit that I don't usually meet them since I have it all), but since we don't see pubic/body hair on women in the magazines anymore, many people mistakenly think that men don't like it anymore either.  It's simply not true!  I receive so many messages regularly from many more men than I can actually meet about how much they adore it.  In fact, I encourage any other provider who wishes to switch to being natural down there to try it and see what happens!  

thank you for the interesting and thoughtful response Zoey. I am not sure about legs and armpits but I am a fan of a soft, furry kitty. I am surprised more providers don't give it a try since it must be a real hassle to keep everything baby-faced down there.

END OF MESSAGE

I guess I found a happy medium. I hate shaving down below, and I tried having "the area" waxed for a period of time--that simply hurts and it is a lot of upkeep. However, I don't like the 70s porn look and it feels uncomfortable super out-of-control. So I just trim, like a nice haircut.  

It would be interesting to see some stats on the question. You have me curious now.

Should never be your primary determinant.

I get my kitty waxed, so for a couple weeks out of the month I have a little bit of hair.

It kind of gives me the best of both worlds.  Has always been my favorite.

Santino, long time no hear!  Hope you are well.

I never shave. I had tried it a few times when I was in college, but not only was it somewhat of a hassle to keep up - especially for me, the thought of sticking a razor near my nether regions makes me lightheaded and jiggly inside, and not at all in a good way! I've had exactly one wax, and it was too horrifying for words. Never again. Besides, I like petting my kitty when she's soft and fuzzy.  
 
I do trim, but less and less over the years. I've always had a bohemian attitude about me and I look the part as well, what with my 3 foot dreadlocks and all. As such, most men that see me are not only prepared for but actually *seeking* a natural look. Aside from my intimate grooming, which is almost becoming a ubiquitous question, the most common request I receive is to appear without makeup - another that I am usually halfway on my way to obliging anyway.  
 
I am so glad that there are men out there who truly love *women*, and aren't just infatuated with all the trappings and trimmings!

I am all natural provider! As a dancer and artist it's important for me to feel connected to my body in that way.  

I allude to my kitty as an overgrown topiary! There is some shape to it and its a bit overgrown! I as well keep my underarm hair and I love it and have found gentlemen who love it as well.  They beg me to let them keep their face in my furry soft places.    

It's never expected because I'm meticulously groomed, petite, slim, and very feminine.  I love surprising people in that way!

It matters to some people.  I mean, its not like we are looking for love here.  we are looking for something specific.

Many of us, at least the ones that like natural/unshaven women, are only seeking the companion of a provider because its difficult to find unshaven women in everyday life.  Its a fetish thing.  If we wanted just any old run of the mill girl there would be no reason to pay for her..

Awesome!  Love it
