Title: Help with Body Hair before Laser or Electro
Post by: SimplyThea on August 02, 2015, 01:01:02 PM
Currently I do not have the money to afford getting laser hair removal or electro, but I want to shave my body hair and keep it shaved as much as possible. Besides the few hard to reach places, like my back, the issue I'm having is my chest and to a lesser extent my arms and legs get unbearably itchy once I have shaved them no matter how careful I am or which products I seem to use. I was wondering if anyone knew of any skin care or shaving products which may help with this itchiness when either used during shaving or afterwards. I really don't want to let my body hair grow back in, but it is so unbecoming to be scratching myself all the time. Plus being itchy just makes me feel unclean. If anyone knows of anything that could help me until I'm able to afford the sessions to remove the body hair I would appreciate it.
