And a final word of warning: never ever use your wifes blade coz they're always blunt, dangerous, and infected with girl-couties.
You seem to have made quite a study of this shaving thing.
Only a certified masochist would use the EpiLady - if ya wanna rip your hair out by the roots, go straight to waxing.
BTW, once you have cleared the initial heavy timber, you should be able to keep the regrowth under control with a cheaper blade than the Mach III. The Gillette Daisy (cute girly pink thing

) will manage it just fine, despite being a double blade.
My blades are only blunt after hubby's been at them and a healthy dose of girl cooties will help you get in touch with your feminine side.
