That tip about getting a closer shave with going in all directions is amazing.

Previously I was just a "up" shaver

i figured this out only fairly recently, it has changed my life (well my pits anyway ) Grin

dexter73 · 04/02/2013 15:39

I do that anyway (old news) you shallow armpit worrier.

ooh do share! i currently shave downwards - have I been doing it wrong Confused

DuchessFanny · 04/02/2013 15:49

I do down, then ... up feels like i get every single little sticky-out-every-which-way hair, its defo smoother anyway !

Would this work on other areas?

EPILATE woman Grin

IncognitoIsMyFavouriteWord · 04/02/2013 21:47

SingingSands · 04/02/2013 21:52

Oh yes, have always done that and it really does work. Think I read it in one of my mum's magazines when I was a teenager!

IncognitoIsMyFavouriteWord · 04/02/2013 22:09

I only use it at night before bed it really works Smile

Shave Shock
Epilate Shock

Hot Wax is the way.
Yes you need to know the direction of hair growth but few things in life as satisfying as whisking those follicles out with a hot wax strip.

I thought everyone did it? Also go from left to right :)

Or epilate which is MUCH better!

BluelightsAndSirens · 04/02/2013 22:17

I've always shaved my pits in all directions. Does this mean I am cutting edge in the pit area?

HanneHolm · 04/02/2013 23:00

I'm not so hairy to do epilation. Plus am wuss.

Just swoosh swoosh
