Shaving

do you use electric or regular blade? i use the disposal blade. it doesn't work very well. what do you guys recommend? which razor blade works well, or should I invest in an electric blade?

I just put tape on the hairs and yank them off. Hurts like you wouldnt believe. At least there's not cuts or bleeding.

I have a pink Venus Gillette razor and it keeps my legs smooth 'n' sexy. I want to try the Veet Bladeless razor too. It's supposed to make your legs smoother for much longer :D

My wax machine broke and I miss it very much :(

You have wax machine? wow..cool. Well I use Venus Gillette too..hehehe..high five to Precious Bamboo ! :hehe:

i used to think i'd like to grow facial hair. but now, i kinda don't b/c it's such a pain to shave every day (if i were ABLE to grow any...) i shave about twice a week and that is enuff. :mrgreen:

Same here. I'd love to grow a goatee, but genetics frown against it. :hehe:

Oh, I use a rotary electric shaver... Norelco.

Electric for me, Norelco but it's a bit old so I think I should go for a newer model one of these days. It's not that clean of a shave but neither are the blades I've used too and electric is just so much faster in the mornings :hehe: :hehe:

I dunno.. I've always found it that the electric takes much longer. Blades for me. Gillette Mach 3 is what I use.

Norelco as well.... Must admit it is a lot faster and less messy versus conventional shaving. Dont have to spend all that time lathering up and stuff..

so i'm sure you've heard of this:
why don't you put some milk on your chin and let a cat lick off your "stubbles"...

Lately I use Nair. Works like a DREAM. Bald for longer and hair grows in thinner :hehe: :mrgreen: If I shave, I use men's razors. They are WAY better than women's razors. My fave for years has been the men's Gilette Sensor Excel. ;)

I was still only shaving twice a week well into my twenties.

Then the Viking in me reared his ugly head.

The annoying thing was... just about the time my beard started getting heavy, I started wearing good shirts and ties for work, or evenings out.

It's amazing how quickly heavy stubble can wear through the collar of a good shirt, and the top of an expensive tie. Scary how many good shirts and ties I've had to toss because my beard worked on them like sandpaper.

I've never found an electric razor worth a damn.

Like Buruburu, I'm a Gillette Mach 3 man myself.

And thank Santa a few companies still make shaving soap and decent shaving brushes. Lather out of a can is for people with much thicker skin than mine.

Nair works nicely for the legs but I'm too scared to use it at all now. Once I put it on a place I shouldn't have and it BURNED for days.

Actually, I haven't... But if you know how to get a woman to do that, then you've got something... :D :hehe:

i hate hair on my body, so i shave every other day with a venus razor and my secret recipe shaving cream. and now i barely have to shave at all and im smooth as a baby's butt.

For "that place" you have to grow a tolerance :hehe: You do need to leave it on longer there for it to be effective, but your skin has to grow used to that extra time.

For underarms, you have to be really careful too. I have a burn right now from leaving it on just a tiny bit too long. :mecry: So yeah, for the past couple days applying deodorant has hurt :(

For me, Nair is way better than accidentally cutting myself with a razor. Razor burn and/or cuts hurt like a m0f0. When I cut myself it's always on my knees, my ankles, or right where my shin bone sticks out :mad: Plus with Nair, you can't miss a spot :mrgreen: Some people break out in rashes from Nair though...
