I shave my infusion and sensor sites just to make the whole process easier. Not only do I get much easier removals I also have far fewer problems with the sets and sensors not staying adhered firmly. This is especially true of the tegaderm I use to cover the sensors. Trying to get one to stay stuck on an unmaintained piece of real estate is next to impossible; with a little basic landscaping I don't have any issues.

I use a Fusion Power razor, haven't tried waxing.
