I am starting to shave most of my body, but I have an issue, and that issue is a safety razor. It works well for my face, albeit with some irritation. The blades also dull pretty fast, as I have really coarse hair, and this issue only gets worse if I’m trying to shave my legs. It also takes quite a long time to get everything with a safety razor, in addition to it being irritating and also failing at it’s one job. I appreciate any recommendation and/or reply, thanks in advance y’all!
Also search engines suck, everything is SEO and affiliate links, I promise I wouldn’t be bugging y’all otherwise ;)
I never had good luck with an electric razor, but a standard 5 blade replaceable razor head has been effective for me because it contours to my legs better. You still need to replace the blades every other week or so depending on how often you shave though so it can be a bit expensive.
I have moderately thick and curly hair and I used to get horrible irritation and ingrown hairs on my thighs after shaving. The most life-changing thing for me in terms of relieving this was to pick up a glycolic acid chemical exfoliator. I use it once a night before bed and I get almost no irritation or ingrowns any more. This was the brand that came highly recommended. If you’re NA you can pick it up at any ULTA for like $10.
