I'm 14 have quite fine blonde hair on mine, so i only try to shave it when it gets long enough to be noticeable, but for some reason the shaving doesnt work... Like, it doesnt cut the hair. Could it be the product? I use guys' shaving cream because thats all I know about...but some of my friends say they dont even use anything and it still works. What works best for you, and . . . how come the hair on my legs never cut, unlike my underarms. . .? (sorry... I'm not really sure how to explain it lol.) My mother never taught me how to do it. Nair? Veet? Intuition? What works? In the past year my hair HAS gotten more noticeable, so I'd like to keep it to a minimum. Thanks

BIC Comfort 3 for Men 4. Rinse blades every few seconds with high pressure hot water 5. Never shave against the grain - you'll get red bumps I suspect you are using too thick a layer of shaving cream. There may be women's razors that shave as close as BIC Comfort 3 for Men, but among men's razors (and I have tried many) Comfort 3 shaves much closer than most others. Most other razors (including others from BIC) won't even get close to fine hair. Sorry for sounding like I sell them, but I've tried them all.

Newbie Group: Members Posts: 42 Member No.: 13,727 Joined: 1-September 05 | Okay the only thing that works good for me is the Mach 3 razors for men. I mean others cut my hair and stuff but these get really close and they DO NOT leave the bumps. Soap is okay to use but I found that if you're using a cheap razor use a thin layer of baby lotion. I know it sounds crazy but its so greasy that is makes the hair softer and easier to cut (thats what my aunt told me). Also It helps to keep hair from popping right back up too fast. -------------------- ~*!*~ TERI ~*!*~ bUt SiNcE u BeEn GoNe i CaN bReAtH fOr ThA fIrSt TiMe i'M sO mOvInG oN yEaH yEaH tHaNkS tO yOu, NoW i GeT wHaT i WaNt sInCe YoU bEeN gOnE

I'll Nair once every two weeks or veet every week and a 1/2. I don't normally use Nair or veet during the winter cuz my leg hair just goes back to the way it was before i starting nairing (pretty thin) and i mostly wear pants. You don't cut yourself with any of these products but if left on for too long your skin will get red and irritated. Also with Nair and Veet the skin on your legs becom really sensitive for a couple hours after you do it. -------------------- 14/f Visit My Diary
