Vaginal Shaving Tutorial

For a vaginal shaving tutorial it is best to consult the experts, which are athletes who usually keep that area shaved on a regular basis. Because the skin there is so sensitive and delicate, it only makes sense to use products especially made for the pubic areas. Use products that contain less chemicals and more ingredients to help prevent ingrown hairs, bumps or rashes. Fragrance free and/or dye free are major pluses. Before you begin shaving use scissors to shorts any longer areas. It will be easier to shave down there if the hair is short. Put one leg up on the bathtub edge or toilet seat to get the best angle and avoid injuries. Take a warm bubble bath for at least 15 minutes and exfoliate the pubic area which will prevent ingrown hairs and help you get a good shave. Using a new blade/razor is a must and it is a good idea to use a razor with a tiny head since it makes it easier to get in those tight areas. Prepare the skin with a thick shaving gel or foam. The first few times you shave, go in the direction of the hair growth. Go over the area with one stroke and rinse or tap after each time to keep a clean razor. Use more shaving cream as needed. When you are done, wash the area gently with a cloth and dry completely. Apply ice over the area to close up the pores and then use an astringent that has salicylic acid to prevent ingrown hairs. Next use a moisturizer with no alcohol or fragrance. Aloe in a lotion will be a fantastic preventative to redness and irritation. For the first few weeks after this it is recommended that you shave every other day. Then switch to daily shaving. Remember to moisturize every time you shower to keep it soft and rash free. Shea butter is perfect for this purpose. http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/4-5-2006-92782.asp
