Great thread OP.
I've put together a photographic history of my wife's pubic hairstyles. She's redhead and is 44 now, and has changed the way she wears it as time went by.
Pic one is from when we dated. She wore it natural back then. Man those pubes were thickest and curliest I've ever had. : )~ Fortunately this isn't the full bush but close.
Pic two is trimmed back pretty close. Still wore it full across her mons and lips.
Pic three is the way she wore it after we were married 50/50, a is what we called it. We both really like the smoothness and sensitivity of her shaven lips.
Pic four is clean shaven. Doesn't do this very often because of the ingrown hair issues from those tight curly pubes.
Pic five is almost present day. Pregnancies have ravaged her once thick and gorgeous red pubes down to a few sparse hairs on the mons. Just a tuft of hair above the cleft and then some on her labia remains. She's had the sides lasered smooth and she keeps the little Hitler beaver out of defiance.
We're both so bummed about this.
But it all fits her just perfectly though. She's wears it very well.
