The Greeks liked their women like they liked their sculptures: as smooth and shiny as marble. Pubic hair was a status symbol for them. The upper class ladies wouldn't be caught dead with bush. The Romans didn't care for pubes either and began eradicating it from young girls' crotches the moment it appeared with special tweezers called the volsella. Ouch! They also used creams called philotrum or dropax, which included stuff like resin, she-goat's gall, bat's blood, and powdered viper. So … the ancient equivalent of Nair, but probably worse smelling.
