Trimming and waxing both have their pros and cons. Trimming is less painful, quick, and reduces the risk of ingrown hairs. Waxing, on the other hand, lasts longer and offers smoother results but can be painful and may cause skin irritation. The best choice depends on your pain tolerance, skin sensitivity, and personal preferences.
