I hate shaving, but I hate facial hairs even more! But buying razors can be expensive! So how often should I use one before I throw it away? Also, is there a way to keep a disposable sharp longer? \n\n(And don't try to suggest pyramid power, please.)

One and done for disposables.  If you use it a second time, you run the risk of irritating those bumps you mentioned.  Have you tried an electric razor with a pre-shave conditioning powder?  Try it, most guys I knew from the Navy who had those bumps swore by it!  Good Luck!

If you shave, the hair will grow faster and thicker.\n\nWaxing will hurt, though.\n\nTry to go for laser hair removal, that usually lasts forever.

Get rid of your razor (and other sharp things) from hurting yourself!!!

No matter what you do, shaving will only be good for about 12hours, then you will have about a week of itchy, spikey hair.  The best is to have the area waxed, otherwise just trim closely with scissors.\n\nRemember to exfoliate really really well to prevent ingrown hairs.

Not much you can do but learn from your mistake and NEVER shave there again. Zits and bumps and rashes are about as unsexy as it gets, which is why shaving here has gone out of fashion. Keep the hair clean, but keep it!

I'm not sure what you mean by "Razorless Kits" so, I'll add this.\n\nI swear by "As Seen on TV Finishing Touch", the little battery operated wands.  I use it for eyebrows, lips, nose, facial peach fuzz, the whole v _ _ _ _ _ and fuzzy a_ _ _ area with absolutely no irritation after (I was shocked to get absolutely no irritation after.) I went closer and closer to the tender spots over time because I would not believe or chance irritation (we all know what hell that is until it heals up). Also, I first use a scissor (comb between skin and scissor for protection)to cut length.\n\nNeedless to say, "If there's a hair, my Finishing Touch is there."  I have a few of them.  They are compact, discreet, quick, easy, no mess.\n\nCan be found in any big chain pharmacy.  \n\nAnyway, have great fun on spring break (you've earned it!) but duck if you see the "Girls Gone Wild" camera crew coming your way :)

Shave it off if you don't like it.\n\nYou might not need to shave every day, I have friends who need to shave twice a day, and others that can get away with once a week.

what about schick. they make razors, not as big as gillette, but they still make razors.\n\nAre you after company history? Go to their website

you're always going to see evidence of the hair.  the razor is not removing it completely.  that would seriously be painful.  however my faial hair is very thick, and look at my pic-  my skin is smooth.  i use neutrogena razor defense gel and at least a 3 blade razor.  i love the 5 blade razor.  you can actually get a blade razor that vibrates and although it's an uncomfortable shave it's the best.  try a mach 5 with vibrate and neutrogena razor defense cream.  that cream is the best!!

this works for me.......I bought a pair of men's razor, I got the gillete 3 blade turbo and I use Pantene conditioner instead of shaving cream or soap. Pat dry and afterward a dab a little bit of coco butter on the shaved area.

Try dry shaving with plenty of lotin! Or try bladeless hair removers like nair. they smell bad though so have a scented candle in the room or something.

There's an excellent explanation at the website below. I've included a bit here, but be sure to check the website for more details:\n\n"People can help prevent razor bumps and barber's rash by:\n\n    * using warm water to soften the skin and hairs before shaving; shaving right after a shower.\n    * applying shaving cream, foam, or soap in the opposite direction of hair growth (usually upward), moisturizing your skin as well as hair.\n    * shaving the easier areas first: the jawline, cheeks, and neck.\n    * shaving in the direction of hair growth (usually downward).\n    * not stretching your skin taut.\n    * rinsing your razor thoroughly after each use and replacing your blades every week or more often if necessary."\n \n\nAlso, "low" quality razors are usually single blade or disposable double blades. "High" quality usually have more blades - up to five, now, which is absolutely ridiculous. For women, single blade (cheap) razors are more effective if you don't shave your legs frequently. The single blade razor doesn't collect as much hair as two (or more) blades do.

You can if you have hair on it... But if you are going to shave it you should also shave around it and trim the rest too. So if you decide to shave it I would suggest Norelco Bodygroom (Shaveeverything.com) it runs about $40. I just bought one last week it's awesome doesn't pull the hair or cut the skin it by far beats anything else I have tried...

Depends on where you are shaving.  Use shave gel - brand does not matter but there are nice fragrances out there.  Use a NEW razor and always a sharp one.  Look it over for defects and discard when you don't seem to be getting a good close shave.  Use short strokes and don't press against the skin too hard or you will have a nick - ouch!  Have an alum stick on hand for any possible nicks - it helps stop the bleeding.  Good luck!

I think shaving is the easiest.  Try doing it in a hot shower after you've been in it for a few minutes.  That will soften the hair and make the skin more able to tolerate the razor.  After you're done be sure to moisturize.  I use neosporin on my skin after shaving.  It sounds strange, but it was a tip I read on the internet and it's the best thing that ever happened to my sensitive skin.

wow you only shave once a week? if I don't do it every day I look like frekin chewbacka! \n\nwell I should say most blades will last you probably at least 3 months with that little use.  When you start to notice its just not working as well is the best way to tell. you know when it leaves alittle stubble yet.

I'm not sure of any particular products or how bad it is, but I have a few suggestions. Before shaving, it is good to wash and exfoliate the skin first, and should shave in the direction of the hair growth every time.
