Shaving Woes?

Post your shaving woes ladies and gentlemen, because I sure complain about mine a lot.
Another good thing would be to post what helps you shave or remove hair...how you do it.

So I shaved again, because I do hate being all...well I think it makes me look bedraggled. I'm stuck between two ugly things: being hairy, and being covered with red bumps and being in pain. I tried shaving very carefully, only with the direction of the hair, only sweeping over one area like twice, etc. I mean the razorburn isn't as bad, but it's still pretty awful.

The way I get through it? Since I haven't found a good way to decrease or eliminate my razorburn...I just think towards the future about the results of my laser hair removal. It does take a while to get there though.

Giveaways!

Treatment #2

I had my second treatment the other day! It was great. I got on a different machine this time with a fun cooling system. They put this stuff on the area that is much like ultra-sound gel that helps the light from the laser spread evenly and things like that. This other laser machine has a thing that blows out really cold air onto the gel and makes it really cold. This prevents a lot of the pain. It honestly doesn't hurt near as bad as one would think though.

As far as the underarms, there really isn't a lot there. It seems like she gets it done so quickly it doesn't even matter. For the bikini area, the crease of my leg hurts the worst. You can also get the perineal area done if you like, and that can be a "pain in the ass" lol.

I'm loving the treatments more and more. Whenever it feels like it hurts, I just think about how great it will be when I'm all done :D.

Razorburn...

So I shaved my bikini area again, and it sucked. I'm trying to shave it like I want it to end up after all my treatments, because you have to shave it before each treatment anyway. I also want to keep it the same way because it isn't like they will remember EXACTLY where the line is where you want the hair to stop.

I just get SUCH bad razor burn it's ridiculous. It hurts so bad to even walk or wear underwear (since they press in the creases of my legs where the skin is very sensitive and gets a lot of razorburn).

I don't understand how women do it! I mean, even right after you shave, you really can't get it all. It grows a little oddly, not as simple as leg hair, and there is pretty much always some stubble left. That isn't pretty, nor does it feel good to you or anyone else. But razorburn might look even worse.

Any shaving or hair stories ladies?

Progress Pictures!

Here we go readers! My first progress picture. I know it really isn't exciting yet, but we have to start somewhere.

This is a picture exactly one day after shaving. It has been maybe 5 weeks since my first treatment. In the picture, there is absolutely no stubble yet, but you can really see the hair shadow. Actually, in the middle there is a funny fuzz blanket hair or something...totally not mine lol. There is also a little razor burn, which is normal for me. I'm excited about the future with no razor burn. It's painful and ugly!

Just Wanted You to Know

I made a post for people to come check out my blog in The Coffee Shop and a few people said it sounded like an advertisement. I really really want to express that this is not an advertisement. I really and truly just want to tell people what laser hair removal is really like, good and bad. I was really afraid to get it done because I didn't know anyone who had had it done that I could trust and really ask. I swear to you readers, I will answer any questions you have truthfully and fully to the best of my abilities. I'm in this to spread the word and share my journey.
