Smooth Body Shaves For A Sleek You

Have you ever thought about who shaves their body? Body builders are pretty obvious. So are most of the males and females wearing bikinis and thongs.

Have you thought about the athlete who shaves their body? There's the swimmers and diver, the runner and cyclist, and even a basket ball player or two who shaves their body because they believe it enhances their ability to compete.

But have you thought about the everyday person who shaves their body? Maybe you're one of them. And if you're into body shaves, you can believe that others you know are as well. You never know, maybe your next door neighbor body shaves. Maybe your kid's teacher body shaves. Maybe even your boss at work body shaves. You never know. But you're probably not about to ask.

So how do you know how to get the best body shaves? Do you read articles in magazines or on the internet? You bet. That's why you're here now, right? Right.

Okay - So, here's the latest info about how to get smooth body shaves:

Don't shave any part of your body right after you wake up. One, you want to be fully alert when you shave. But also because while you sleep, body fluids puff up your skin and hide most of the hair and this makes it harder to get a close, smooth shave. Do something else for about a half an hour to give your skin time to become taut, which will expose more of the hair.

Along these same lines, body shaves should never be done unless you're totally straight.

Depending on what part of the body you're going to shave, trim down long hairs to a stubble before shaving.

You need to thoroughly moisturize your skin and hair by taking a long, hot shower or bath. At least place a warm cloth over the area you're going to be shaving for several minutes. Body shaves will go much more smoothly if your skin and hair is not dry.

Always apply a good bit of a rich lubricant, allow it to sit for a short while and then make sure you have plenty of it as your razor shaves your body.

Speaking of razors - It is of the utmost importance that you always start your body shaves with a clean, fresh blade in your razor. A dull razor blade is the number one cause of irritated skin from body shaves.

With the exception of the legs, always start your body shaves with the direction hair grows. Then you can shave against the way the hair grows to get that smooth body shave.

Take care not to press down or repeat strokes over any one area as you go about your body shaves. Both of these actions will only create razor burns, rashes and bumps.

After you're finished shaving, rinse off with warm water. Then rinse again with cold water to soothe agitated skin.

Pat, don't rub, your skin dry with a clean, soft towel.

Depending on the area of your body shaves, you'll either want to apply a rich moisturizer to condition your skin, or a talc free powder to absorb moisture and oils. This should be pretty obvious, which parts get what. And you also want to limit friction by wearing loose fitting clothing around those more sensitive areas after your body shave.

So now you have the latest info about how to get smooth body shaves.
