does anybody shave all

[CheriTV2006]

I've been doing that for years. It used to itch when the hairs came back, however that has stopped after the first couple of times (guess the body area got used to it). Although, I do it because I dislike body hair in general, I also like to be reminded of how it felt pre-puberty. Cheri.

If your shaving with a blade, I might suggest that you try the Gillette Power Fusion. It is the most comfortable shave I have ever had. I shave my head, face, legs, etc..., all in the shower every morning. I don't use shave cream. I use hair conditioner. Hair conditioner works very well and I have no need to moisterize afterwards.

hi girls for a few years I shaved everthing from the nose down I was losing the battel as soon as I shaved it seemed to grow back within hours it seamed. so a few years ago I started getting waxed and let me tell you I would never go back to shaving it last weeks and its not as bad as you think it would be it only hurts for a second so tyy waxing it is great
love jennig

Waxing is the way to go. it lasts longer and can be fun when you get used it
the pain does not last long when iwas last in LA i got my whole body done
except my fore arms which i ended up shaving anyway.

I shave my penis base and scrotum with a disposable razor in the shower with soap. To avoid the scratching/itching just don't shave on the sides where your scrotum touches your leg. Trim there with scissors but don't shave. From the front no hair can be seen by you in mirror or by your partner. Its your secret.

I shave completly , no body hair from the neck down, my wife loves it, I have found the best way is to shave regular (every week), your body becomes used to it, so i dont itch any more, also I use a rasor that I have used on my face first, a slightly used razer doesnt nick me anywhere, I am also fortunate that I hardly have any body hair anyway, and even after a week, there aint a lot to shave off lol. I go on holiday three times a year, and nobody even bats an eyelid about me having no body hair, I dont even think about it anymore when on public view. So girls shave regular keep it smooth and shiny !!!!!!

[Sasha Anne Meadows]

In my chats I have found that many many t girls have no body hair. Must be the samd gene that makes us want to dress. LOL

[Deenise60]

Yes, I shave everything, arms, chest, back, legs, arm pits, legs, down there too. Use Nair on all except down there. No, after problems either. As mentioned in an earlier post, "its great being hairless".

[TSMichelle]

My advice is....Before you try the real thing.....Stick a cactus down your pants for two days and see how you go on.

Lol , thats how i felt when i did it for the first time, it's awefully painful the first time, but once you buy some hair removel cream, everything will be A-okay .

[sweeting]

hi audry i shave all all the time after a while the skin gets use to it and no more razor rash so do it and enjoy

[Margot]

Yes; I shave may whole body every other day in the shower or tub except in the pubic area. I used to do that too with no real discomfort. I just got away from it. The only problem is I wear control panties 24/7 which essentially is a gaff so you need to stay cleaned.The back is a problem that my wife clears for me once in a while.
It's a real challenge isn't it ladies?

It seems like there are lots of shaving threads at the moment. It must be that time of the year...

Dry shaving works in the genital area, too. But for safety's sake, I advise using an unmodified razor in this region.

I hadn't shaved "down there" for years, but just started recently when I learned to tuck. One of the functions of pubic hair is to reduce friction, so a shaved scrotum tends to stay where you want it to stay, which helps to keep the tuck stable.

I just get it waxed, no more shaving for me

[KateW]

Yeah, I shave everywhere... accidentally including my nipple most recently. There was quite a nasty cut, and it still hurts like hell every time I'm out in the cold. Thankfully it's still attached! So my tip - don't shave your nipples if you live in a cold climate. Oh yeah, and happy thanksgiving to all the girls across the pond!

Trim the hair as short as possible with scissors or trimmer first. This will save some pain later. I use an electric shaver for that area and my back, it's easier to handle for me. It's realy no big deal, but you gotta keep up with it, it'll be easier the next time.

I shave every day in the shower. Use a triple bladed venus that has a flexable head to follow the contures. Soap it up and go to it. The same is true for your pits and boobs.

can anyone tell me about shave down there,, is there a methhood, or any avice on this delicate subject. do's and don't's...

I use a set of hairdressing clippers, no guard, just the straight blade. It cuts the hair very short, but still leave a little bit. (tried shaving but the re-growth is soooo itchy it almost drove me nuts not to mention the ingrown hairs).

Also bought one of those personal shavers from the bodyshop. Apprently all the porn industry use them (but buy a good brand).

In so far as my testicles, I simple follow the same lines.

The key to using this bodyshaver is to apply talc powder, it helps it glide over the skin better.

(I shaved my legs yesterday for the first times in years, just run the clippers over them usually. I'm itchy as a bear that's rolled in posion ivy, I'm regretting my implusive desire of yesterday now).

Anyone got a cure for shaver rash and ingrowns?

If you can afford it, give waxing a try. DO NOT attempt this yourself, but make some calling, or visit this site www.waxwaxwax.com to hunt down someone who will give you what's called a male brazilian or sphynx. Count on it costing upwards of 100 bucks, but the growback is much sparser than with a shave or nairing.

Good luck, whether you're waxing or shaving, and don't forget to exfoliate every couple of days.

I use a Gillette Venus razor... The head pivots so there are fewer or no nics. I also use Skintimate Moisturizing shave gell everywhere except one place... Just running water in the shower. A lot of gels/creams have substances that tend to give a little burning sensation to really sensitive areas.

[mysteryhorn57]

I've only been shaving below the neck for about 4 months. I try and shave the body hair about once a week. I am not too thrilled with VEET...nasty smell, uneven results, like chemical warfare on your skin.
I heard good things about the "Phillips body groom" (electric) so I may try that.

It is a lot more work than you think. There are always little spots you miss.

As for the "twig and berries", you will love the newly obtained smoothness down there.

Best thing I have found, as far as razors go, is the Schick Silk Effects razor. It has wires over the blades , it seems to keep the skin from being caught at all. Been shaving with it since september of this year and have never cut myself once.

Once I did shave I wondered why I had not done it sooner. Guess I have been lucky, never once have I gotten the itches.

I am trying to get the nerves for a full body wax

Talc powder with a disposable razor works well too. See the link to Dry Shaving in my earlier post in this thread.

The best cure for shaver rash and ingrowns is prevention. Also, once you shave regularly, your body won't react as much to being shaved.

But fortunately, there are some things you can do to ease your pain & red spots. Good old Aussie Tea Tree oil is an excellent remedy. It helps the healing process, kills bacteria & soothes the itchiness. It may sting a little bit for the first few seconds, then you get this nice "glowing" feeling. Don't use it pure, use the water-soluble 15% stuff.

You could also try IsoCol rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol), available cheaply in any supermarket. It kills bacteria & soothes the itching a bit. Another thing which soothes & heals shaving rash is Aloe Vera, especially if you can get it fresh.

To prevent (or at least reduce) shaving rash, exfoliate & clean your skin well before shaving. I recently got some cheap exfoliating gloves in Coles & they work well. Use something like Tea Tree oil and/or IsoCol on your legs both before & after shaving.

As a before & after shave, I dilute the 15% Tea Tree oil down to about 1 part oil to five parts water, and use it in the bath, so I'm already wet. It doesn't need to be too concentrated to do its job. The IsoCol, I generally use straight.

To eliminate shaving rash, you need to get rid of bacteria and the oils & dead skin they live in. Most ingrown hair is caused by excess skin over the follicle interfering with the newly emerging hair, so that's another good reason to exfoliate.

I really suggest you read my article on dry shaving, that I linked to above. Dry shaving really helps to reduce and even eliminate shaving rash, razor burn & ingrown hairs.

Hope this helps,

Robin
