Want to try for the first time!

Okay so I’ve never shaved or waxed my vaginal area before, however I’m very scared because I already get so many razor bumps and cuts with my underarms and legs. Also my hair is so thick and my skin is super sensitive. Does anyone have any tips on whether I should shave or wax? Also anything for sensitive skin and especially advice for nerves and being a first timer 😩🙏🏻
