Bikini season is in full swing and you want to look as attractive as you can in your bikini. It isn't easy to do so if your bikini area needs attention. You can learn how to take care of this process and fit it into your regular hygiene routine by fitting bikini area shaving into the time when you take a shower. As you start learning to maintain your bikini area, you'll need to start slowly and move carefully with the razor.
Step 1
Trim the pubic hair down to stubble, using the scissors. It is easier to shave this area when you can see what you're doing.
Step 2
Soften the pubic hairs by putting a hot, wet cloth over your bikini area. Leave the cloth on for three to five minutes.
Step 3
Apply a generous amount of shaving gel to your pubic area and allow it to soak into your pubic hair and skin for up to two minutes.
Step 4
Shave slowly in the direction the hair grows. Use a gentle touch so you don't nick yourself. Apply more shaving cream and shave against the direction the hair grows.
Step 5
Apply a light dusting of talc-free powder or corn starch to absorb moisture.
Tips and Warnings
- Wear loose-fitting clothing for the first few days after shaving your bikini area. Don't shave right around the time you get your period. Your bikini area becomes highly sensitive at this time.
- Don't shave over your skin more than twice. You'll only irritate this tender skin area. Reduce irritation to this area by reducing moisture and friction.
Things You'll Need
- Sharp scissors
- Hot, wet cloth
