  1. Well there is a relly good foamy one in sainsbury&#039;s which is their own brand. It&#039;s in a green bottle and costs around £2 and you rub it between your hands and gentle rub underneathe your armpits.

  2. Hair removal: The different methods of hair removal are: shaving, tweezing, depilatory cream, waxing, electrolysis and laser hair removal.

    Hair removal- 1. Shaving is one of the most common forms of hair removal. It&#039;s easy to do and not very time-consuming. The results usually lasts between 1-3 days. Some of the draw-backs are: cuts, razor burn and bumps.

    Hair removal - 2. Tweezing. For longer lasting results, some people turn to tweezing. The results can last from 3-8 weeks. Some of the disadvantages of tweezing are that it is time-consuming , you can develop ingrown hairs and it can be painful. The areas generally tweezed are the upper lip, eyebrows and chin.

    Hair removal - 3. Depilatory creams remove hair from the skin&#039;s surface by breaking down the bonds that give the hair it&#039;s strength. This disintegrates the hair so that it can be rinsed or wiped away. The results can last for several days or up to 2 weeks. Depilatory creams are simple to use, however, some people may have a reaction to the chemicals in the cream. This could result in a rash or inflammation.

    Hair removal - 4. Waxing can produce some long lasting results, from 3-6 weeks. Warm or cold wax is spread on the skin over the unwanted hair. Then a cloth strip is placed on top of the wax and pulled off quickly, thus removing the unwanted hair. This can be a very painful process and can leave your skin red and inflamed. Hair must be about 1/4 of an inch thick to get the best results.

    Hair removal-5. Electrolysis,a needle is inserted into the hair follicle and an electric current is sent to the root of the hair. This current kills the hair root. Results from electrolysis can be permanent, if done correctly by a professional. Some of the disadvantages are that it is very time-consuming and can be painful.

    Hair removal-6. Laser hair removal is another long lasting method of hair removal. The results can last up to 6 months. A laser is aimed through the skin to the hair follicle where it stops hair growth. Large areas can be done at one time. Laser hair removal can be expensive and like other hair removal methods, can cause redness and inflammation


  3. Wa kaint mommy of 3 spel gudder I wunner and put togedder a gud sennence?

  4. i do ballet so frequently have to shave my underarms.. i found that after shaving i had red spots and it was itchy. moisturising helps, (so yes finding a moisturising shaving cream will be an improvement) however in the end i got an epilater and i prefer that to shaving.

  5. sounds like you have shaved them dry? well you need to make sure you dampen your armpits, perhaps while you shower or wash use either shaving gel, foam or simply use a little amount of conditioner, or anything that will provide your skin with a soapy lather barrier before you shave, this way the razor will glide over your skin and leave you silky smooth rather than pull at your skin and leave you with in growing hairs when they grow back, causing a nasty red rash. Good luck sweetie x  

  6. change ur blade or something cz its usually dull blades that do that.. or if ur shaving dry, then it does that too.. i like Schick Quattro shaving cream for women..

  7. it can depends on shaving cream but not always..

    try aftershave balm too soothe the skin after shaving.

    also make sure your blades are clearn and not blunt.

    hope this helps :)

  8. Yeah tis normal, some of me mates have them.  Apparently its summat to do with them rubbing.  You can get some cream at the pharmacy :)

  9. Uh, This is not really an embarrasing thing. We don&#039;t really know you and you&#039;re using your aunt&#039;s account so no worries.

    When red spots appear, that just means your underarms get irritated. Do you only use the razor or the razor with water? That&#039;s a no-no. Now, if your skin is sensitive, don&#039;t use shaving cream. That might irritate it more. You know how men&#039;s skins are, they&#039;re like asphalt.

    Anyways, I recommend using shampoo or a body wash instead.

    First, splash water onto it. Then, apply the body wash or shampoo. After that, go ahead and shave! This is cheaper.

    If you want it to be more smooth, put lotion on it-- deolotions

    Good luck!

    hahahaha. Now I&#039;m embarassed. lol.

  10. gillette series wth foam moisturising is good, i don&#039;t think it costs too much. it doesn&#039;t matter whether it&#039;s mens or womens, they all work the same.  

  11. use aloe lotion right after

  12. The red spots are razor burn. Use a new, sharp razor, and shaving cream. Don&#039;t press very hard, just lightly when you shave.

  13. it cheap to buy...there are loads of brands...and great selection at most stores.....

    try changing you blade, it might be too &#039;blunt&#039;...or to severe for you..or try not to shave there every time you shower...the shving foam will help though.....foam/gel..it willdo the same thing...

    also, you could try using an &#039;aftershave balm&#039;, again you can get it at most stores, if u put it on after shaving, it will soothe the skin, and reduce the red spots  

  14. shaving cream is good cause it makes ur skin smooth...by puting it and using a shave.....
