Question 1

Why can’t I use men’s razor?

Accepted Answer

Men’s razors are usually designed with only facial hair in mind; they are made for a smaller shave area. Women razors have a much larger task at hand, as women shave up to 10 times more surface than men – for instance, legs, underarms, bikini area, and so on – so women’s razors are designed shave these large areas in a single session. You’ll notice that men’s razors are squared, while women’s razors are more oval-shaped. That’s because oval shape shaves tighter areas, like underarms, more easily. While they come with the same sharp blades as men’s razors, they may have additional lubrication to protect the skin while shaving larger areas. Also, the grip is important! You must be able to handle your razor in multiple positions, that’s why Venus razors are typically easier to grip in a variety of positions.

Question 2

Do I really need different razors for different body parts?

Accepted Answer

Your body parts are different, and so, might have different needs. There are body parts naturally more sensitive, and because of that can be at a higher risk of developing skin irritation if not using the right products. Moreover, make sure you know how to shave each individual area for the best results: 1. For legs, gently shave from the ankles up 2.For armpits, shave in all directions — downward, sideways, and upward as needed 3.For the bikini area, first, shave in the direction of the hair growth; then reapply shaving cream and go against the grain for a closer shave.

Question 3

Why aren’t my razor blades working? Should I change them?

Accepted Answer

Shaving with a sharp razor blade protects your skin from nicks, razor burns, and bumps. When the razor starts feeling rough on your skin or pulls at your body hair, you know it’s time to change your blades! Blades have their lifetime, and to maintain that perfect shave you need to replace them from time to time. As soon as you start feeling the dullness of your blade, meaning your blades start to pull on your hair, they feel rough, and you notice more and more irritation – it’s time to replace it.

Question 4

Is there a way to make razor blades last longer?

Accepted Answer

Your hair texture and shaving frequency impact the longevity of your razor blade, but proper care can help keep your blades fresh and sharp for longer. Make sure skin is well-hydrated. Wet hair can be shaved off more easily and with less friction than when shaving than dry hair. More friction dulls down the blade quicker. Keep shaving gel residue and cut hairs from drying in between your razor blades and reducing their effectiveness by rinsing off your razor after each stroke. Likewise, clean off your razor and let it dry thoroughly after you finish shaving.

Question 5

I have really sensitive skin, what is the best product to use?

Accepted Answer

If you have sensitive skin, your risk of developing razor burn, rash, and irritation is higher, so how you shave and the tools you use matter. Using the right blade will safeguard your skin and optimize your shaving results. You can find a razor blade that’s dermatologist-tested for sensitive skin, and consider using a razor with five blades for a closer shave with less irritation. Five blades on a razor are spaced closer together, which prevents the skin from bulging up in between the blades for a more comfortable shave on sensitive skin. Also, more razor blades typically cut the hairs at the surface in a single pass which can result in fewer strokes, limiting chances of skin irritation.

Question 6

My skin gets really irritated after shaving, what to do?

Accepted Answer

Shaving correctly helps with keeping your skin free from irritation. Keep in mind that the right shaving method will depend on where you’re shaving. Learn more about how to shave your legs, armpits, arms, face/eyebrows, or your bikini area with these practices below: 1. Hydrate your skin via a warm bath or shower for a few minutes before you shave. 2.Exfoliation can also help prepare your skin for shaving by removing any dead skin cells. 3.Use shaving gel to preserve moisture and help your razor blade glide more easily. 4. Apply moisturizer, preferably alcohol-free, after you shave to help keep skin hydrated. And, always use a sharp, clean razor blade. Using a dull blade increases your chances of nicks, razor burn, ingrown hairs, and irritated skin.
