Shaving remains the least expensive and most convenient way to care for pubic hair, but some people don’t want to start because they fear they will have ingrown hair, a razor, a rash or nicks and cuts. Honestly, this is often the case. As in any beauty mode, bikini shaving down requires skill in combination with excellent products to achieve the best results. So, if you are one of 31% of people who do not regularly care for pubic hair, then these tips are for you!
1. Start with the baby steps. Trim your pubic hair with a quarter inch scissors after bathing or showering. First wipe off. Do this as needed to get used to the idea of grooming there and feel the growth rate of your hair.
2. When you are ready to shave, plan to start by clearing the bikini line. This will help you get used to shaving. Make sure you take a bath or shower first, use a good razor with a fresh, clean blade and a razor gel specially made for the pubic area. Apply the gel first, then shave in the direction of hair growth around the pubic mound on all three sides to simply clean the edges. This is what is called “Basic Bikini Shaving.”
3. If you want a different style, create it! To get a “Plantation Strip” or a vertical small strip down the middle of your pubic hair, trim your hair short and follow the steps above to shave. Shave both the top and side so that it resembles a vertical “strip” of any length and width.
4. When and if you are ready to go there to create “The Smoothie”, make sure that you follow the above shaving rules. Additional tips for this style: exfoliate after bathing or showering, but before shaving, trim your hair as short as possible. Then shave in the direction of hair growth from the outside, all around the “triangle” the first few times and only shave every day. Once you do this, and your skin will be settled, then shave more and more until you get rid of all the hair in the pubic area. After your skin and hair are adjusted, you can easily shave it all every day, while you are using the gel and some kind of cream and / or spray.
Shaving is an inexpensive, simple solution for unruly, awkward pubic hair and painless if you do it right. Always buy products made for pubic hair and enter a routine that keeps you as naked as you want. Your care will make you feel sexy and look great in this new underwear that you bought to surprise your significant other.
