shaving

hey guys im really bad at shaving cause im always cutting myself even though i use a shaving cream and make sure that my blades sharp.

so have you got any tips/tricks? IM TOO CHICKEN TO DO ANYTHING ELSE LOL hopefully this is the right place to put it in

To become a pro, blow a balloon up then lather shaving cream all over it.
Try and shave it all without popping the balloon.
This is a method barbers use to become a pro.
Hope this helps, good luck <3

thanks for the links mel – lifesavers!!!

OMG this is a life saver…. I have been shaving about a year as well – was using veet, but it left scars on my legs (no, i didn’t use it over the time limit).. I am using Shcick Silk effects plus. It was little wires over the blades to help you not nick yourself and a aloevera gel bar that follows the blades up…

Bide and mel, your tips are so helpful!!

i didnt know that bide thanks 4 the tip

also sweet, watch out when you first put the razor on your skin and when you take it off, as that’s when you’re going to get nicked – at least for me, it doesn’t happen when I’m gliding it.

Im a Gilette Venus girl too i would recommend it to everybody who has trouble shaving, its all most impossible to cut yourself.

Oh I love those Gilette Venus ones too, they make shaving so quick and easy.

Just a tip for you girls who like to use the soap bar-less disposables, I heard that if you keep the blade submersed in a little dish of olive oil it keeps the blade sharper for longer because it keeps it from rusting 😀

Sure of it I feel like I am in that shower for an hour when I am shaving the lot, lol 🙂

wow thats smart lesley

OMG lesley that is the smartest thing I have heard all day!

You are so smart. I need to start doing this. I always hate it when I have to do legs, bikini, underarms all in one shower!

I assume this method saves water as well!
