If you shave without shaving cream, does the hair grow back sharp and edgy?

Question

Also in particular, if you shave AT ALL even with shaving cream, does hair grow back bushier and thicker or vice versa?

Answer 1

No it just grows at a slant making your hair look longer and thicker when it's really not.

Try using hair conditioner because it's better then shaving cream!

Answer 2

ask your mother

Answer 3

1. its really bad to shave without shaving cream because it dries out your skin and is really bad for it. so if you have to, make sure you use a really good moisturizer on your skin after you shave.

2. after you shave, the hair grows back black, so its important to shave regularly (every 2-4 days) depending on how fast, and dark your hair grows back.

Answer 4

The whole purpose of shaving cream is to hold more water/moisture in order to allow the blade to glide with less friction. Which is why shaving in the shower without shaving cream works quite well. Both ways, because of the way a razor works, causes the cut hair follicle to have a sharper point to it. Thus making it sort of itchy when it grows back.

Additionally, the shaving it making it grow back bushier/thicker is an old wives tale. Meaning it's false, basically. Even if you don't shave the hair, each hair only has a certain life span and then falls out and a new hair grows in it's place.

Hope that helps.
