"  Look, we don&amp;#039;t care how you choose to deal with the hair down there. You can leave it, wax it, trim it, or whatever\u2014it&amp;#039;s your body after all. That said, we do have one request when it comes to pubic haircare: Be careful! A new study shows that ERs and doctors are seeing a gigantic increase in visits from patients who are DIY-ing their grooming to disastrous results. Researchers from the University of California, San Francisco analyzed emergency room data from 2002-2010 and found that the number of grooming-related injuries jumped five-fold. Yikes. The main reason for emergency care? All the cuts, scrapes, and burns that come with shaving hair in areas we can&amp;#039;t easily see without a mirror. So no, we&amp;#039;re not suggesting you give up your grooming routine anytime soon, but please be super careful (and use a mirror). Or, just go plunk down the money for a pro job. It might cost more, but it&amp;#039;s better than cutting your vag with a razor.  Want more from Meagan? Follow her on Twitter. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
