This is a question I want to ask other ladies, but too shy to ask.
How do you clean yourself clean in your bikini area? Meaning, hairless.
I have been shaving for a longgg time. ( yes razor and shaving lotion) I want to
get a bikini trimmer ( electrical) because I heard its faster and gives a closer smoother shave.
Anyone have any good recommnedations that they are using.

Please no epilator recommendations, because one word to describe those is OUCH.
Waxing, is a no no for me too. Way too painful and I am swollen for a while after waxing.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

I think more ladies are curious like I am, but not so many takers=) Thats ok. For why I prefer the clean look, its a personal preferene. It just feels more hygienic.

I need to climb out from under my rock!!! I'm SO tired of shaving! I hope some mamas have some good suggestions, so I can see them too!!! So, at any rate, at least you're not the only primitive bikini groomer out there! :-)

I do sugaring. It's similar to waxing but not as painful and I dont swell. The brand I use is Moom. Give it a try!

Laser hair removal :)

Groupon has deals all the time. I got 6 bikini treatments for $99. I have one treatment left and still have to shave every couple weeks, so I might do another round after this one.

I go to have the area waxed every 4 weeks and have been doing so for just over a year….sooooo much better than shaving. I am not going to lie and say the experience is so enjoyable, BUT it's absolutely worth the 5 mins of being uncomfortable. They do say that you should go 2-5 after your cycle completes. Apparently your skin and hair are at good point to do the waxing which will prevent some of the pain and swelling if you are prone to that. I know when I go later than this, it's more "painful" than if I go on time.

My goal come November is to start with Laser in that area. I just want to be done with it forever. I had laser done on the bikini only about 10 years back and has held up great. Now I want to take care of the rest of it.

No pain no gain right ;)

I'm sorry you really didn't get any good recommendations to your question... I am wondering, too, how people groom their bikini area... I shave also. I haven't heard of a bikini trimmer... but in my experience, no electric shaver or device shaves as close as blades, but I am definitely interested to know if a bikini trimmer is any better than a razor, or at least easier.

I am going to ask this question again today, and hopefully, those of us who are looking for ideas, will get some!
