"It's a man thing." We still hear this phrase in 2025. However, the figures are there: 75% of women take care of their bikini line, and more and more of them are looking for alternatives to traditional methods. So, are trimmers really not for us?

This spectacular increase, from 15% to 28% in a few years, reveals much more than a simple change in habits. It is a real revolution in our relationship with the body and intimate care.

First of all, why do culturally few women use lawn mowers?

Deeply rooted habits

Tradition dies hard. For decades, razors and wax have reigned supreme in women's bathrooms. It's as if we had internalized that "trimmer = man" and "razor/wax = woman". A cultural heritage that still influences our choices in 2025.

Yesterday's technical brakes

Until recently, clippers were simply not designed for the female anatomy. The result? Imprecise tools, poorly adapted to the curves and sensitivity of our intimate areas. We understand the distrust: who would want to risk irritation or cuts in these sensitive areas?

The quest for "all smooth"

Another reality: many women are looking for that famous "smooth skin" effect. Wax and razors promise this result, while clippers always leave a little length. But in 2025, is this really a problem? Mentalities are changing, and with them, our definitions of what is "acceptable" or "desirable".

What these numbers really tell us

Women are not rejecting maintenance per se. They are rejecting constraints and dictates. This 13% increase represents thousands of women who have said "stop" to traditional methods that are often painful, time-consuming and expensive. This is not giving up, it is taking back control.

A need for alternative solutions

Between those who no longer shave at all (28%) and those who continue with traditional methods, there is a large space for intermediate solutions. The trimmer perfectly meets this need:

  • Gentler than waxing
  • More precise than a razor
  • More practical than wax
  • More economical than the beautician

The impact on the beauty market

This evolution is forcing the industry to adapt. Women no longer want to:

  • Mandatory monthly appointments
  • Unique solutions for all
  • Painful methods
  • Recurring expenses

A broader societal change

This trend reflects a deeper development:

  • More freedom in personal choices
  • Less social pressure
  • A search for practical solutions
  • A healthier relationship with your body

The lawnmower is not just a technical alternative, it is a symbol of this new freedom: that of choosing how to take care of yourself, without compromise or excessive constraints.

But what are the consequences of female shaving and hair removal?

The Real Cost of Traditional Hair Removal

The financial cost

  • Hair removal appointment: €30-50 per month
  • Homemade wax: €15-20 every 3 weeks
  • Disposable razors: €10-15 per month
