I’m not a guy (obviously). And thank goodness I’m not. The idea of having to shave every day (or every other day) is horrible. My husband dislikes shaving. He would let a beard grow in if his job allowed it. Not to mention there is no way I would be happy with a bead either. I like his face soft, smooth and hair free.
My teenage son has a moustache now too. It’s not a overly obvious one. It just looks like he was drinking chocolate milk and didn’t do a good job wiping his face. 
The idea of my 13 year old with facial hair is just plain weird. He’ my “baby”. My baby shouldn’t have to be shaving (my other “baby” will be driving soon…ugh!).
My husband often nicks himself. I often wonder if he’s shaving wrong or using the wrong razor and/or shaving cream. He blames it on his thick facial hair. I just think he doesn’t want to admit he might be doing something wrong. Ha! Men! LOL!
I was watching this video on how to properly shave. I can see now that my husband is doing it all wrong. The video is below. You should check it out.
If you happen to be reading this post via e-mail you can find the video here, http://bit.ly/RaULdx.
It looks easy enough. I don’t think that doing it this way (the right way) will take any more time then the way my hubby already shaves.
The video mentions that you can save $$$ on your shaving supplies at Dollar General. It’s true. You can!
You can save even more money at Dollar General when you use the savings you find in your monthly P&G brandSAVER. Each month the brandSAVER offers you savings on many products you use around your home, as well as personal items. Why not get extra savings by using them at your nearest Dollar General store. You can use it to stock up on all the things your man (or yourself) will need to get the perfect shave, from some great deals on Gillette products to shaving cream and after shaves.

- Buy any Gillette system or disposable and get $5 off a Gillette Fusion ProGlide Razor
- Buy any Gillette system or disposable and get a MACH3 Razor FREE

I’m sure October’s brandSAVER will also feature great deals.

About Kimberly
I shave after I take a hot bath or shower. It makes hair removal easier.
I shave in the shower twice a week.
I shave in the shower before washing off. Thanks for the giveaway!
I usually shave in the shower w/shaving cream.
I shave my legs/underarms in the shower usually about twice a week, more during the summer.
I always shave in the shower, it helps reduce skin irritation.
i have an electric razor and i shave in the car on my way to work…i know it’s not the best but i run out of time in the morning
I always shave in the shower the direction of hair growth to provent bumps.
I always use shaving cream for women on my legs prior to shaving, I’ve found that by shaving every 2 days it keeps up on it so it doesn’t take as long, then after I am done shaving I use body wash on my legs which helps keep the inflammation down to a minimum. Please don’t ever shave dry.
After a hot bath~ or shower
My son and husband shave daily in the shower.
I always shave in the shower, at the very end. My fiance has to shave every day because his beard grows so fast!
I shave in the shower, but once winter comes and I don’t wear shorts any more my legs only get shaved about every other week.
I shave my legs in the shower.
I like to shave my armpits while I am taking a shower
I use Venus razors on my legs 3 times a week.
My husband only shaves about every 2.5 days. He refuses to do so more often because of the bumps he gets. I’m guessing he probably does it incorrectly lol.
I shave in the shower and use my soapy body wash daily. It’s fast and I hardly knick myself!
while showering
I use an electric shaver most of the time, and only use a razor when I want a good close shave. I desperately want laser surgery because shaving is something I HATE to do!
