Bikini Line Shaving Made Easy
Bikini Line Shaving Made Easy
There are so many ways to groom body hair and many of them are painful. Threading, waxing, plucking... ouch! These methods leave your skin painful, red, tender and unattractive. What do you do if you have a romantic evening planned and you need a little grooming "down there"? Your fastest, cheapest and least painful way is to shave. If you have a little time you can also create a landing strip or a pretty heart shape with stencils!
To get started you'll need scissors, a comb, mirror, razor, clear shaving gel or cream, after shave astringent and moisturizer. Use products that are made for the pubic hair region... it is much thinner than any other skin on your body and you want to avoid rashes and ingrown hair. You can purchase a kit with everything you need next time you want to be ready for shaving your bikini line.
Decide how much you want to groom your bikini line and pick a design if you have the time. Then follow the ten easy steps below to get the perfect bikini line shave without ingrown hair, razor rashes or other irritation.
1. Take a lovely bubble bath or long, warm shower to soften your hair.
2. Trim the hair with scissors until it is about 1/4 of inch long.
3. Draw a design with a stencil and pencil if you want a landing strip or other shape.
4. Apply your shaving gel or cream to the area to be shaved.
5. Using your razor shave in the opposite direction of the hair growth to get the closest shave.
6. Rinse your razor frequently and replace the blade if it starts to feel dull.
7. When you have finished shaving trim the hair that is left (if there is any) a little shorter until it looks neat.
8. Rinse and dry your pubic area and then apply astringent.
9. Wait until you are ready to get dressed and apply your moisturizer.
10. Let dry and get dressed.
Always use a new razor blade when shaving. A sharp blade makes for a closer and safer shave. Some people rub an ice cube over the shaved area after they have rinsed to help close the pores and prevent ingrown hair. You can do this or skip this step if you are using products made for pubic hair as they will prevent ingrown hair.
Never use commercial hair removal creams (depilatories). Even those advertised for bikini line hair removal will burn most people and cause a great deal of pain.
Grooming your pubic hair is not a passing fad. Visit any museum around the world and you will see a variety of art including both men and women where the pubic hair has been completely or partially removed. Fortunately for us we no longer need to rely on the painful methods used in the past.
Shaving your bikini line is not difficult but you do need to do it properly to forego ingrown hair or razor rashes. Follow the steps set out above and you will have a sexy, clean shave in no time at all!
