Hair Remover Tips for the Bikini Area

Nowadays, the most embarrassing faux pas you can commit in a public beach/pool is to let your pubic hair say its hello's to the world. Men and women alike have been known to commit such a grievous mistake when wearing bikinis and trunks, which could have been avoided had they taken the time to use any of the hair remover tools available.

Description of the Bikini Shave

It must be emphasized that the term "bikini shave" is applicable to both men and women even when it is only the women who wear bikinis. It is the shave that extends from the main pubic area to the underside of the genitals - vaginal lips for the women and testicles for the men as well as the anal area for both sexes - until the tops of the thighs.

Tools Used for the Bikini Shave

The hair remover tools used in a bikini shave depends on the type of method you are adopting for the purpose. If you are shaving the area, then an electric razor is the appropriate tool. However, you should not use a rotary electric shaver as it can pull hair in many directions, thus, leading to more skin irritations and infections.

If you are into waxing, then a porous strip of paper and the appropriate wax solution are your hair remover tools. This method is best done with assistance either from a close friend, relative or from a professional.

Tips for Shaving

The main rule in shaving is to go about it very carefully and very slowly. There's no hurry especially when you consider that your genitals are probably the most sensitive of all skin areas.

You must trim the longer pubic hairs with either small scissors or a hair trimmer. Ensure that your skin pores are open either through taking a shower or by placing a warm piece of cloth on the whole genital area. This way, the pubic hairs are more receptive to the actions of the main hair remover tool.

Moisturize the area with a mild lotion and then allow it to seep through the skin and hair for about five minutes. This way, you’ll avoid small skin nicks that may lead to infections. Lastly, apply electric razor to skin. Start from the back, then the sides and finally the front. After you are satisfied with the results, rinse the area and pat dry. Wear loose underwear for a while until the skin is well-healed.
