Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge: 3rd Update
Hi guys,
Time for another update of the Gillette Venus #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge. Read more about the event and the challenge HERE and the first update HERE and 2nd update HERE.
Its been almost a little more than a month that I have only shaved my legs and not gone for any other method of hair removal.
In this post I will bust the myths that ‘Shaving causes itchiness’ and ‘Shaving changes hair texture or hair growth’. Well shaving does not at all change the hair texture in any way. As I explained in the first post, it is just the top part of the hair we cut when we shave, so the hair that grows and comes out later is the inside part which is in the roots of the skin,which is a little darker as it has more melanin and hence we feel that the hair is growing thicker and darker. It is just that the hair that was within comes out and we feel it is different when actually it isn’t and it is a part of the same hair. So there is no change in hair texture or color or thickness in anyway due to shaving.
Also I was the one who used to feel very itchy after shaving and that was always my concern, but with the tips I mentioned in the previous post, it has been breeze and I haven’t experienced any itchiness whatsoever. So it is not shaving that caused itchiness, but not following the necessary steps that caused the itchiness.
If compared to other hair removal methods, waxing is something I can’t and won’t prefer doing at home coz of the messiness it involves and always lack the time and patience to visit a salon for the same. I have also tried hair removal creams long back when I was in high school and junior college as doctor had advised me not to wax as my sensitive skin reacted to it then. The biggest disadvantage of hair removal creams is it darkens the skin, I have experienced that personally, with time and regular usage, it did darken the skin slowly. Also, I completely hated the smell of those hair removal creams.
And the biggest advantage of shaving for me currently is,I can do it quickly within a few minutes and anywhere. I just need to carry my small razor with me. What do you guys feel?
