I'd be afraid of the unsightly, rough stubble that would accompany regrowth. Based on my experience with how my legs look/feel when the hair grows in after shaving.
I have fairly hairy arms..well, fairly hairy everything really. I wax my eyebrows, upper lip, "sideburns", chin, and ladybits. Shave my legs (but only to the knee) and armpits. Pluck lower my stomach.
I have had someone question why I don't shave my thighs and my response was "The only person who sees my thighs is you, and if it bugs you, I can just put my skirt my back on". Guess who was totally cool with my unshaved thighs from then on? lol.
