Unless you live in France or some other foreign country, where it’s accepted that females aren’t shaving their armpits, it’s kind of an unspoken rule that once you have hair in your armpits, you need to start shaving it.

At least in western societies, females are considered uncouth or even unkempt/unclean if they’re not shaving their armpits.

Just consider the type of negative press any female well known in the media gets if/when it’s revealed she’s not shaving her armpits. Remember that shot of Julia Roberts with her arm raised exposing a tuft of dark hair? No matter how much we adore Julia - On some level, this tarnished her "clean" image.

You may disagree with this and you may even be justified to take exception to society dictating how you look, but the truth remains that if you aren’t shaving your armpits, you’re a bit of an outcast.

I don’t know about you, but I believe there are much more important issues to deal with, like stopping the use of animals for testing cosmetic products, protecting children from abuse, preventing domestic violence of all types, caring better for our elderly citizens, right down to cleaning up and preserving our planet, to name a few … That are much more important than whether or not I have to be shaving my armpits.

I have a good friend who often reminds me, "Choose your battles wisely". Which means we all need to decide what issues are really important enough to fight for. Frankly, not shaving my armpits is not one of them.

Politics aside - It remains that shaving our armpits is a "necessary evil", if you will, of living in this privileged society.

So - The issue becomes, what’s the best way of removing hair from our armpits?

I haven’t heard it recommended that females use a depilatory to remove under arm hair. Probably because the chemicals are too harsh for this sensitive skin and there’s a rumor that these chemicals can be easily absorbed in this area.

Nor have I heard about females having their armpit hair waxed. And honestly, I have to plead ignorance as to why not. There are probably a host of females who are having it done, I just haven’t come across any information about it in my research.

That brings us back to shaving our armpits.

And while that sounds simple enough, as with most things, there’s a catch.

It’s called a wet razor. The shaving tool introduced to me when it came my time to start shaving my armpits.

Unfortunately, no one instructed me about the proper ways to start shaving my armpits with a wet razor, so the majority of my life I just suffered the fire under my arms for the first couple of days after shaving.

One thing I don’t understand - In my research, I’ve seen it suggested, repeatedly, that you can use a white stick deodorant to limit skin abrasions after shaving. Yeah right -

It’s a well known fact, (and common sense should tell you), and if all else fails - Just read the back of any deodorant … The last thing you want to do after, "scraping", your skin raw with a razor is apply a strong, chemical based substance.

Hello …

Instead, just dust your armpits with a talc free powder, or maybe a little cornstarch. Both of these work great on a baby’s bottom to prevent diaper rashes, so you know they’ll work to put out the fire of shaving your armpits.

Better yet - You could do some research and find out about newer, safer shaving tools to help you stop setting a fire when shaving your armpits.

I haven’t had a fire from shaving my armpits for years. And let me tell you - What a relief.

Ladies, here are a few shaving tips that will help avoid nicks, irritation, and ingrown hairs. Next to laser hair removal, shaving is a much cheaper option for you to remove body hair. Back during World War II, bare legs became a trend. Nylon stockings were in short supply because everyone wanted to wear them. Today, one of the most popular hair removal techniques used by women is waxing, but shaving remains the least expensive form of hair removal. To make sure that you are cutting down on the nicks and irritation, here are 10 tricks or tips to help you along. Remember to not shave dry skin. Wet your skin and let it soften as shaving is also a natural skin exfoliater that can clog up your razor. Don’t purchase shaving creams especially formulated for women. They are a waste of money as they are the same creams as are sold for men. One of the best razors for women is the Gillette Venus razor or the Schick Quattro for Women. Both have super thin blades and a pivoting head.

Changing cartridges or razors on a regular basis will avoid nicks or cuts. Also remember to not use your man’s razor as his is coarser and will have a duller blade than yours. Always remember to exfoliate your skin before shaving to avoid clogging the razor. Remember to shave your ankles and legs upwards as leg hairs grow down, and apply a good moisturizer afterwards.

Ingrown hairs are caused when hairs curl back under the skin, so exfoliating bi-weekly and using a good glycolic acid body lotion will help immensely. One great product that helps with ingrown hairs is called “Tend skin” which is an over-the-counter lotion specifically formulated for ingrown hairs. When you apply it morning and night, the bumps should disappear within a couple of days. Consider having a wax treatment for your legs, as it will remove coarser hair, and they won’t grow back as fast. Consult a local expert or good web site for information on permanent hair removal or laser hair removal. These procedures are becoming more and more effective and are a good solution for long-term hair removal.

I’m sure that a lot of people who have thought about shaving, or already do shave their pubic area, wonder if personal shavers really are that effective or even necessary. Well to answer that question in short, “necessary” might be a little melodramatic. Effective however is a definite yes. Please understand that the effectiveness of the personal shaver depends a lot on its quality.

Not all personal shavers are equal. It is because of this little fact that many people have wondered about the legitimacy of the personal shaver. One of the main points that differentiate a good quality shaver from a bad quality shaver is its after effects.

A bad quality shaver will leave your shaved area red and prone to ingrown hairs. There is also the possibility of getting red bumps in that area too. Now before you start running away from fear, understand that all of the mentioned after-effects can happen from a wet shave too. This however, is where a good quality personal shaver can out shine wet shaving anytime. Because of their special design thin of the foil and blade combination, it is virtually impossible for it to cut or nick you in any way. This makes it extremely safe and effective for females and males alike who want to get a smooth, painless shave.

Baby powder is another important ingredient. Applying baby powder just before using your personal shaver is what makes that extra bit of difference between a really smooth shave and a regular shave. The reason for this is because the powder helps to keep your skin as dry as possible during the shaving process. Having a dry skin surface allows the personal shaver to go as close to the skin surface as possible.

Yes, if used properly, personal shavers can leave you with a really smooth shave.

The question of how to shave pubic hair depends a lot on how you want to go about removing your pubic hair. When it comes to shaving your pubic area, it is possible to shave with a normal razor as well as an electric razor. Yes, that’s right; nowadays there are electric razors that are specially designed for shaving your pubic hair.

In this lesson we will discuss how to shave with an electric razor.

A common name given to these electric razors that are designed specially for the pubic area is called a "personal shaver". The personal shaver is made in such a way that it is virtually impossible to cut or nick your self in those really sensitive areas. But even so, there are still a few tips you should know in order to get a smooth, hassle-free shave.

Before using your personal shaver, make sure that your pubic area is as dry as possible. The first thing you would need to do is to trim your pubic hair as close to the skin surface as possible. The best way to achieve this is by using a special electric trimmer that is designed for your pubic area. This will ensure that you don’t catch any loose skin between the teeth of the electric trimmer.

Once you are done trimming your pubic hair, the next step is to go ahead with the personal shaver of your choice. Please remember to keep your pubic area as dry as possible before attempting to shave down there. This helps to ensure that you get a really smooth shave with as little skin irritation as possible. Another way to ensure that your skin is as dry as possible would be by sprinkling a generous amount of baby powder in-between your pubic hair just before shaving.

By following the listed tips above on how to shave pubic hair, there will be no reason as to why you can’t have a safe, hassle-free, and smooth as a baby’s bottom pubic hair shave.

Shaving legs is by far the most popular method of hair removal for women. As much as we hate it, we do it on fairly regular basis. Some of us even every day.

But there is much more to shaving than just a razor, a little bit of soap and water. If you want to prevent the annoying cuts, razor rash and ingrown hair and get the closest shave possible, then I suggest you read the following tips and implement them into your daily shaving routine.

Ready? Let’s go shaving legs!

Tip # 1

Invest a few dollars and get a good razor. The disposable ones are not designed to do as good of a job as the reusable ones. You will definitely get a closer shave and avoid nicks with the more expensive one.

Tip # 2

Don’t forget to change your blades frequently. Using a dull razor will give you a razor rash, nicks and a chance for ingrown hair.

Tip # 3

Do not go shaving legs right after getting out of bed in the morning. Your skin is more puffy at that time of the day and your stubble is not as visible. You will get a closer shave if you wait about 30 minutes.

Tip # 4

If you shave your legs in a bath, you must know that your skin will shrivel in under 10 minutes which will make the stubble disappear somewhat. The solution? Shave your legs within the first 10 minutes in the tub.

Tip # 5

Exfoliate your legs with a body scrub or a loofah. That will get rid of dead skin cells that will otherwise clog up the razor. Plus it will give you soft and smooth skin.

Tip # 6

Do not apply your shaving lotion onto dry skin. Wet your legs for at least 2 minutes first. When your skin is hydrated, your hair will stand up and you’ll get a closer shave.

Tip # 7

Once the shaving lotion is on your legs, allow it to sit there for a couple of minutes. That will hydrate your skin even more.

Tip # 8

Please do not use plain soap. I know we’ve all done it more than we care to admit. But the problem with soap is, that it will not only dry your skin out, but also the razor will not glide smoothly and it might give you a few cuts and a rash.

So there you have it. Your basic rules for shaving legs that will give you the closest shave possible and in the long run will save you some time, as you will not need to shave as often as you usually do.

Through trial and error, my shaving tips are ones I’ve tended to find out over time based on personal experience.

Personally, I’ve found that I get the best overall results shaving my face with an electric shaver with a built-in lotion dispenser. I got this new lotion-dispensing shaver in 2005 and in my opinion, it’s a great product. With my new shaver, I cut myself very infrequently, I get no skin irritation and get a close shave. I don’t plan on going back to a manual razor to shave my face anytime soon.

I also shave my head and prefer to stick with a manual razor. I find a manual razor is quicker to use in this case. I use a good quality razor with disposable shaving cartridges. Again, I cut myself very infrequently although I think that my use of a good quality razor goes a long way to accomplish this. I learned the hard way that using a cheap disposable razor didn’t work on my skin.

Here are some general shaving tips that work for me:

1. Find a good shaving device – whether it’s a manual razor or electric shaver – that gives you the results you are looking for. If you cut frequently with a manual razor, you might consider an electric shaver like the one I use since they tend to produce fewer cuts.

2. Replace disposable razor blades before they wear out. Dull blades tend to cause skin irritation, poor shaving results and cuts especially if you find yourself pressing down too hard on the razor to compensate for the dulled blade.

3. Before you start shaving, ensure your face is moist (ie. with water) and use a good quality shaving cream or gel.

4. Avoid shaving against the grain. In other words shave in the direction of the hair growth. Shaving in the opposite direction of the hair growth can irritate skin and cause ingrown hairs.

5. Try using a face moisturizer after shaving to help protect your skin. I’ve found that it’s preferable to using aftershave.

You’ll also find that you get better shaving results when you don’t shave immediately after waking up. You tend to get better results by getting up and waiting perhaps 20 minutes – perhaps after you’ve showered – before shaving to allow your skin to flush out fluids that built up overnight.

With experience, you’ll most likely find out what works best for you and more specifically, what your skin prefers.

Temporary and permanent hair removal technology is evolving constantly and is relevant to both men and women who want to remove unwanted hair.
