Most of us are have a regular regimen of shaving the bikini area as part of good grooming. Though as simple as it may seem, the majority make unconscious mistakes while doing it.
Here are 3 things that you could be doing wrong;
Dry shaving
If you're a culprit of shaving that area when it's dry, it's time to change things up. Just like you can never shave your legs dry, that same energy should be applied when shaving your bikini area. Shaving your skin while dry can potentially scratch your skin and make it rough.
So, for seamless shaving, it's vital to wet the area first. Even if you're in a rush and have no time to shower, dampen the area before shaving.
Using one razor forever
Changing your razor regularly is not only hygienic but also a safety measure since you're dealing with the most sensitive part of your body. Gillette, one of the famous shaving companies, recommends one to use their razor blade up to 10 shaves on the maximum. However, if you notice it starting to become blunt or rusty, throw it away immediately before it irritates your skin.
Not shaving with the grain
People are different. Some shave with the grain whilst others against the grain. However, according to Gillette, it's advisable to shave in the direction your hair grows not only to avoid irritation but also to have a smooth shave.
