Shaving

[JKander]

I've been shaving more often lately. I used to let my legs get pretty hairy, but now I like them smooth every day. As I need to do more in the day, I have to shave faster, and I keep cutting myself! I'm thinking about getting an electric razor. Do they work well, and are they easier to use then these blasted regular ones.

I think electric razors are very painful actually i dont think they are.
i have used one and u wont believe dat, i left my leg half shaved cause of pain and later on used non electric razor to come out of dat horrible dream .

No I don't shave my legs. However my experience with electric razors is that they don't give a very close shave like the triple and quad blade ones do.

Also, make sure that your razor is sharp and not clogged with hairs.

A dull razor will scratch and chop the heck out of your skin because you have to press a little harder and more often... Thus the dreaded razor burn and more nicks and cuts...Ooouch!!

So change your razors often

I have never used this razor, but I have heard that for fast shaving, Intuition is great. The blade is surrounded by a solid shaving cream that keeps you from knicking your skin, even when you're in a hurry.

Yeah, I gave my roommate one and she said she loved it, a close shave without the nicks.

Although she said it was a little difficult to rinse out all the hairs...

Well i have never shaved my legs...i don't shave, instead i wax because i think its much better. The wax is homemade too!!! I get my legs waxed from my maid and the the result: non-painful, quick...and the best part is that the hairs don't come out until three weeks later!!(it's because waxing pulls the hairs out from the roots) Shaving just shaves hairs from the surface of the skin and grows back quickly. The bad part about waxing is that it's a sticky job. the wax is easy to make. It's what i prefer though.

lol - no, I do a lot of fashion gigs and they're sponsored by some big sponsors and we (artists) get some cool ditty bags chock full of some cool stuff.

So I end up giving some of it to my roommate, who is, ironically, not a make-up kinda girl...
