I agree. We don't even call them his razors, they're OUR razors... Right now we've got the Gillette Hydro 5, which I really enjoy because it's great for getting a good grip on it and it's a nice close shave. Prior to that, I was with the other girls and the ProGlide, again another great option.
I also normally use his Gillette Sensitive Skin Shaving Gel or I'll opt out of that altogether to use some of my hair conditioner, because it makes everything so smooth.
Ingrown hairs are just kind of fact of shaving, but there are a few things you can do to minimize them, such as:
- Dry off really good in every nook and cranny
- Some women find it helps if they run an anti-perspirant in any areas where their underwear may rub
- Don't rub when you're drying, just gently pat
- Use a fresh blade whenever possible (I don't follow this rule...)
Hope that helps.
