5 steps to a perfect body shaving

Would you like to have an attractive body like that of your favorite actor or sportsman? The first step to achieve this is to eliminate all body hair through body shaving, which gives a cleaner appearance and reduces the accumulation of body sweating. But, do you know what body shaving is?

According to the specialists of Gillette , body shaving consists of shaving the hair on each part of your body such as head, chest, crotch, armpits and back to achieve a neat appearance; however, you should follow the following tips to prevent irritation or any discomfort:

1.- Choose the right products: Many men think that they can be shaved with a soap or a rake of any kind, but that is a ... gigantic mistake! Shaving any part of the body without having the right tools can cause injury, irritation and definitely a very bad experience.

Ideally, look for products for sensitive skin such as the Gillette Mach 3 Sensitive machine and the shaving gel. It may not be essential to use products for sensitive skin on the face, but in the case of bodyshaving it is vital!

2.- Reduce hair with a machine : It is a very common mistake that men want to shave without having shaved the hair before. If they do not, the rake must pass more times on the skin and that inevitably irritates it.

Therefore, always trim all the hair as much as possible before shaving. The machine you need is the same as that used by stylists when they lower their temples and you can buy them at any beauty store. To choose it, look at the one that is more similar to the size of your hand, so it will be easier to handle.

3.- Take a hot bath: Taking a bath of at least five minutes with hot water before shaving allows you to have your skin hydrated and your pores ready for an easier and more comfortable shave.

4.-  Stretch the skin of the area that you shave: When you stretch your skin in the area that you shave, you reduce to the maximum any type of cuts. Use your gel to shave in small areas to pass the rake little by little and have more control. Use new cartridges and have several spare on hand to not stay half, especially if the area is very large. Ideally, change the cartridge when it stops feeling soft.

5.- Rinse your body again and hydrate it: When finished shaving, rinse your entire body with hot water and when leaving the shower apply a moisturizer or a gel of aloe vera, so that your pores close and avoid dryness.

Try not to scratch and two days after your shaving session you can start carving with a grass or sponge, as you would normally use it, to open the pores and not bury your hair.
