How to use a shaving razor?

What shaving cream/razor should I use for my first time shaving?

  • So I'm 13 and my mom FINALLY is letting me get a razor. I'm not sure which ones I should use though. and what exactly do I do? Like the steps and such? Ps - I'm a girl.

  • Answer:

    LOL yeah don't get excited and start shaving everywhere! Big mistake -- I did that, too. i was like, YIPPE NO MORE HAIR! And I felt so powerful just.. removing it! I got a little carried away and shaved basically everywhere even where there's practically no hair and ended up bald and raw. :( Use a easy little dispensable razor, they can be found anywhere. Use a moisturizing cream because my first time I got dry skin when I shaved. Have fun! xD (not too much fun)

Well take a page from my book of Things Not to Do When You Start Shaving....the first time I shaved I was 11 and was so freaking excited that I shaved EVERYTHING....my legs, of course, and the soles of my feet, and my wrists, oh my god. So stick to your legs. You don't need to blow money on fancy creams, just use whatever conditioner you have on hand! Take a warm bath first to soften the hair. Buy any kind of razor (Venus ones are good). Smooth conditioner on your legs and shave your calves first, in long strips from ankle to knee. After doing two, tap the razor on the tub edge to dislodge the hair and soap. Repeat until you've done both your legs and rinse! It's as easy as that.

Any razor will do really. For the first time i would recommend getting one with the little round parts around the actual razor. Shaving cream isn't really necessary because you can just use regular soap or conditioner. Just cover your legs in soap or shaving cream and start from your foot and do one straight line all the way up to your knee. Keep doing that until you finish your leg and for arms just do the same from your hand to your elbow. For armpits just put your arm up and swoop the razor over it just like you would with deodorant. Hope this helped:)
