Why would anyone want to shave their pubic hair? People have their own reasons for shaving the genital area. Because the matter is personal in nature, your reasons remain private because it is not an everyday topic talked about like the weather. If you tend to shave your pubic hair, you need to be careful. You must approach this search with the utmost caution.
One of the reasons brought to light for shaving pubic hair has to do with appearance. Women shave their bikini line to get rid of visible lags when wearing a bathing suit. Wearing a thong or thong is another reason to shave. Pole dancers and exotics are common pubic depilators. Maybe you shave your pubic hair to please a sexual partner, who knows.
There is no real health reason to shave hair around the vagina or penis. Even an infestation of pubic lice (“crabs”) does not require shaving of the pubis. Is pubic hair unsanitary? One can relate to this question if the hair is not thoroughly cleaned after urinating or having sex. Stale semen and urine are two types of unhealthy matter if left attached.
There are several ways to remove pubic hair. The options are shaving, waxing, and laser hair removal.
Shaved off
1. For health and safety reasons, you must use a new razor to shave. Dull razor blades can cause serious injury.
2. Trim long pubic hair. Think of this task as if you were mowing the lawn. Tall grass should be cut with a scythe so that the mower blades do not bind, snag, or stiffen. Sharp scissors, nail clippers, or an electric razor will do the heavy lifting. Do not rush; speed can cause cuts and nicks when shaving. Once the hair has been shortened, soak the genital area in warm water or use a warm damp cloth to place on the area and leave for 15 minutes. This helps smooth out thick doughs. Now foam the pubic area with shaving gel or foam. This helps the blade slide more easily. At any time if you need more lubrication apply more cream or gel. It is to your advantage that the shaving cream / gel is transparent or lathering little so that you can see what you are doing.
Do not try to shave dry, it is not safe and causes skin irritation. To avoid ingrown hairs, shave in the same direction the hair grows. Don’t repeat shaving over the same spot, you don’t want to scrape the skin. Tightens the skin, it will help you get to those difficult spots. Once pubic hair has been shaved and rinsed, gently exfoliate with a soapy flannel with a mild mild soap to cleanse the pores. Again, choose the right soap. Particular cleaners contain ingredients that cause irritation. Some aromatic soaps are not suitable. Apply a moisturizer that contains vitamin E. Try rubbing an ice cube on the shaved skin to close the pores, and then pat the area dry with a clean towel. Follow this up with an astringent formula containing salicylic acid to prevent ingrown hairs.
Hair removal
Waxing is a more preferred way to remove pubic hair than shaving because hair takes longer to grow back. Also, hair tends to grow back less coarse. The best advice is to have the hair removal done by a professional. Home waxing kits can be purchased at a drug store, but you will probably need the help of a close friend because some particular angles are hard to reach.
The waxing process consists of smoothing hot wax onto strips of clean cotton cloth. The strips are applied to the pubic area, allowed to dry, and then quickly removed, taking pubic hair with them. Keep a tissue nearby because waxing can make your eyes water. A professional epilator will likely remove stubborn hairs that remain. Moisturize the depilated area with Aloe Vera to avoid irritation. Pubic hair should not be seen to sprout for at least 2/3 weeks.
If you go for the semi-permanent to permanent hair removal method and have a few shakes in the bank, then laser hair removal may be the ideal source. A laser beam is used to target a square area of hair or a specific hair (depending on the company doing the removal). The follicle is heated to a temperature that slows down hair growth. The side effects of laser hair removal are redness of the skin and slight swelling.
What is the difference between Brazilian bikini wax and regular bikini wax? Basically, with the Brazilian, the pubic hair is removed in the front, back and everything in between. Most of the time an “airstrip” is left in front.
Brazilian waxing was introduced in New York in 1987 by seven Brazilian-born sisters.
The downside of a Brazilian wax: although it lasts up to 3 weeks, the hair will grow back and you will have to do it again, also the hair must have a certain length before it can be successfully plucked.
Although Brazilian wax is popular, so is the Hollywood wax known as “Hollywood wax”. Brazilian Bikini Wax or Hollywood Wax must be performed by a valid and licensed esthetician. He may suggest that you take pain relievers to ease the pain. Talk to an advisor in the classroom.
The old saying “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is correct. Razor Burns and Treatments
1. Use new razors. The gender-specific ones are a good bet; Disposable razors are a delicate and hygienic option as well. The more times you have to go through the same area, the more likely you are to get shaved burns, so try to get the shaving motion right so you don’t have to go back to the same place.
2. Don’t rush. The weight of the razors should be enough pressure to loosen the hair. You should not push as it may tear the skin.
3. Apply lotions half an hour after showering. This will allow your pores to close.
4. Treat irritation caused by shaving with Aloe Vera-based products. Aloe vera allows for environmental protection and has pain relieving qualities that reduce swelling, soothe irritation, and form a barrier that protects the skin from infection and promotes healing.
5. Cortisone cream will safely treat redness and relieve pain.
“Warning” If you need to ask a friend for help because of those nooks and crannies out of reach, make sure both of you are talking and have had no consequences.
