What is your favorite style/brand of shavers?
for my head i use a basic head shaver with no guards. for my face i use gillettes Fusion: Power
I use a a gillete electric shaving kit for my face/body hair then use the mach 3 razor to get in close and remove the stubble.
hah that pink one by gillette... seems alot of people like gillette?
hmm what about waxing though... how long does the average bikini wax last, anyone know? been meaning to ask this for a couple days now...
Yeah, gillette is the shave of choice it seems, i have an acid green one- just a cheap one. some times i use veet, but i dont trust that stuff- it burns!
gillete mach3 turbo for four years now.....
yeah shit... i found out the hard way why it says on the bottles of veet/nair stuff "do not use twice in a 24 hour period"... i bought a little nair bikini kit, and it didnt work very well the first time... so i put more on right after washing it off...Quote:

YEAH THEY ARE!!! thats why i ask for them for christmas from my mom hehee... stocking stuffers!!! ;) SMRT!!
Well, I use a mach 3...
but when I am feeling manly i go Flintstone, and use my Midget/porcupine combo..
BTW... Nair on the head BAD IDEA
Oh god..I tried using nair to remove my pubic hair once.....NEVER again.
hahaa thats why im trying to find out how long a bikini wax might last... nair dont work so good sometimes :(
I have been using nair on my below bits for over a year and only have problems if I have any open cuts or in gown hairs. Waxing normally last for me about 4 to 6 days for baby smooth. It lasts for 9 to 12 stubble but can't see it really. But I am a red head and have think hair that likes to be ripped out. If your hair is fine or slick at all you might not get all the little hairs and then the tweesers come out..... oowwie! My roommate using something called AngelSmooth or Pussy Shaver, little razor that is wonderful but I bit out of my range right now.
cheap, disposable gillete razors, unless i dont shave for like a week, then i use the little trimmer on the back of some old electric shaver i have.
ah tweezers owww... not cool. i dont have really super fine hair, but im still not looking forward to the tweezers just in case haha... the hair that gets left there always seems to be attached directly to a huge nerve ending.Quote:

ive never heard of an angelsmooth... what is it all about? one of them tiny little electric shavers? heh if those things work as good as they do on TV then i want one...
I used to use a Mach 3, then I went up to the Shick Midnight Quattro, and now I use the Fusion: Manual. I love love love how smooth it gets my face. But I don't love the razor burn/irritation. Hah.
mach 3 is fine maybe I'll try something different next, not really too important at this point in my life
Used to use Gillette, but now I use Wilkinson Sword FX Performer (mostly because I got the blades cheap)
heh quietplace... i went to a sex toy party not too long ago and they had this stuff there called "coochy cream"... you put it on after shaving (or maybe shave with it... im not sure) and it stops the razorburn ;)
comes in pear berry scent or original!!
Just the cheap pink bic razors for me. I also use witch hazel which helps razor burn and also stops any icky ingrown hairs.
Right on! I'll have find it and try it!Quote:

for leg/arm hair (mine is blonde and very fine) i seem to do better with the venus... i just don't feel like keeping track of 2 razors & buying the expensive damn refills.
after shaving i use a toner with salicylic acid, i.e. face toner, and baby powder. when applying lotion, apply only WITH the grain of the hair, meaning smooth down over freshly shaven legs. this helps prevent weird little red bumps that aren't quite razor burn.
hooray!
just tried the gillette fusion, it is fucking insanely good....blows the mach 3 away
Mach 5 has five blades, just what we always needed: each series is progessively more innovative than the last.
can't wait for mach 6...
Hahaha I can't wait for Mach 18 :1orglaugh !!Quote:

I've shaved my thingie several times...unfortunately I always end up with very noticeable rasor bumps, and ingrown hairs...it's so unsightly...I don't know what to do about it. I've tried putting visine on it, and bikini zone...I also exfoliate before and after...anyone have any ideas?
the cheap super sharp ones. i think they should bring back the cut throat razor
oh and not forgeting jennas hot trimmer ;)
yeah, straight razors do that that sort of charm but that new gillette with the 5 blades beats anything,
whatever I can get my hands on honestly. -.-
nair + me = NIGHTMARE
