How To Shave


Whether you're a man shaving your beard or a woman shaving her legs, you can prevent cuts, nicks, and ingrown hairs by wetting the area you are shaving with warm water. This will soften the hair and prepare it for shaving.

Shaving for Women

You should shave your legs and armpits in a warm shower or bath. When shaving your legs, keep in mind that the hair grows down and shave accordingly. Start near your ankles and then work your way up the leg. As hair tends to grow in many directions in your armpits, you will need to shave in multiple directions.

To shave your bikini line, first apply a gel or cream and shave with the grain of the hair. After that, rinse and apply another coat of the lotion and shave against the grain. This step should be repeated once more for optimal smoothness.
