Dont use hair creams they stink and dont actually do much!! rubbish

*Nods* Here, here

[luvlygal]

looks like i'll have to try it! what is it called... veet ?

yep i do, you know homer simpson when he shaves and it comes back instantly.. thats me! haha

also if i leave it 2 or 3 days it hurts when i shave it off
those gillet people say their 5 blade thingies last 3 months per pack.. i don't get a week out of a blade

So basically, if you shave it hurts and if you don't shave, it hurts. Got yourself into a position there! Get some piercings, it boosts your pain threshold!

How old are you?

29

oh right i thought you were a 14/15 year old, i was going to ay that you'd grow out of it

Don't use depilatory cream. If you are sensitive to shaving, then you'll react even worse to the chemicals in Veet. I've tried all forms of hair removal (apart from laser & electrolysis) on my pins, poobs & pits, and to be honest, a good old fashioned wet shave gives the best results & the least irritation.
Change the razor blades often, and use a good lubricating gel or foam (I like King of Shaves), then loads of moisturiser, and I mean loads. Every time you wash, stick more lotion on.

If you do it regularly (not necessarily everyday), you should stay smooth as a baby's thingie.

what are pins and poobs?

If you have to ask then you're not old enough to know & as this is a family forum I can't tell you.

Put warm-hot water on a face cloth and leave it on your face for a couple of minutes.
then apply your shaving gel.
Use razors with only 2 blades-mroe than 2 gives you a really close cut-too close a cut!
make sure you constantly wash the blade with cold water- makes the blade swill!
Do it fairly gently and don't press so hard-you dont need to!
Always go in the direction of the hair- pretty much always down.
Wash off with warm water and dry!
tada!

the end!

Oh and the more you shave, the quicker it grows back so try and do it every other day and soon it wont grow back as fast.

i have to shave everyday aswell and there is no way around it(in the RAF).

anyway i have to agree with JuJu and say KING OF SHAVES it is absolutely awesome. if you get the silicon oil stuff in a blue bottle it is great. really hot and wet face and ac ouple of drops of oil and it it works a treat. I also use a gillette fusion power razor

That's not true! The frequency with which you cut your hair will not affect its rate of growth - you just notice its regrowth more when you cut it frequently.

DO NOT use hair removal stuff on yer face, I can remember when a teacher at high school admitted he had, it looked like he'd been in a fire!!

I use sudocream or E45 after shaving and it clears up the rash very quickly. If I put on at night the rash is sorted by the morning... magic stuff.

I'm in the military and have been shaving everyday for 9 years.... I have heavy growing facial hair, and I used to get a bit of a rash... Here's what works for me...

Shower to open up the pours....
Then make sure face is wet and apply sensitive shaving gel.....
Use a good razor (not a disposable) Quatro, Mach 3 or a Fusion (that's what i use)....
After shaving both directions...

Re wash face, I put my head over the tub and use the movable shower head to really do a good job... It'll sting at first but once you've washed all the pours it will feel good..
Then dry and use a face cream or lotion... My wife bought me some stuff from the body shop... But before that I would just use her oil of olay face lotion..... I always have a good shave and my wife likes the smooth face...

Hope this helps..

I feel sorry for people who have to shave daily... I can go about 5 or 6 days without shaving and not have a huge about of bristle... usually I leave it 2 or 3 days before I shave :/ some guy at work came in with a proper visible beard the other week and said he'd not shaved for a day! Couldn't believe it

[MissSportyGT]

Yeah i agree that cream stuff stinks i used it once and hated it.


Try waxing your face lol

The more you shave the more it does grow and quicker.
