It’s a tedious and time-consuming beauty ritual that tops the list of most-hated grooming chores.
But despite being a boring task, the average woman will actually spend an incredible 21 hours a year shaving her legs.
In an average woman's lifetime, that’s 59 days - almost two months of shaving.
According to a recent survey, leg shaving comes top of a long list of most hated beauty chores, as 35 per cent of women say they despise depilation more than anything else in their beauty routine.
Yet the average woman polled spends four minutes, six times a week on the ritual.
Fancy scraping back a bit of time? There are actually some pretty time-efficient ways to de-fuzz.
Here are some depilation goodies to check out:
