One on the list of top favorites this summer time of year is sexy skin....  Yes and i agree that you women do a marvelous job of ridding yourselves of unwanted body hair.....   Well being a swimmer most of my life believe me i understand your dilemma..  So being an engineer by trade, i deal in facts...   Here they are... 

 The #1 choice of unwanted hair removal (underarm, legs, bikini line) for 92% of the women, and for 98% choice of the men (mainly beards) is the shaving.....  The following steps will give the best results: 

 1) Ex foliate, {means to lather up} using a good body wash and a loofah just before you shave if you are prone to follicles(ingrown hairs); don't try to dig out any ingrown hairs, as they tend to take care of them selves... (look up loofah)

 2) Wait 20 mins after shaving before applying sunscreens (The suggestion is not to use much if any sunscreen) or choose one with zinc or titanium dioxide... does not sting! Will talk about the sunscreen question later or email me for info...

 3) Never share your razor with anyone... anyone.... can spread warts, herpes, ect... 

4) Wait ten minutes into your shower , before shaving, so hairs are wet , but do not wait too long or your skin will start the prune like look.. 

 5) As all men know(or should) always shave against the grain or the way the hairs grows ...  The exception for you ladies is the bikini lines around the private parts, which are more prone to ingrown hairs...

For the complete story; see OrganicStyle.com June 2005, Bare Necessities.....  This is great mag..  recommend it to everyone, along with  Body + Soul...  So you see i do have a softer side...  Not much, mind you but some....  We will not discuss my most favorite magazines, but you can guess, i am sure....

Well don't say that i don't try to take care of the ladies  on my blog..

Next time will jump into some habits we men have, and try to explain(away) why...  So stay tuned do not forget my other exciting blogs...
