How to Use an Electric Bikini Trimmer?
Humans are self-conscious, especially when it comes to our bikini line. To put things in order and make sure she looks flawless in her bikini, we created this guide to finish the bikini line without the annoying bumps. In addition to how to use an electric bikini trimmer, we've also reviewed three of the best trims you should try.
Cutting the bikini area is not for everyone. Some believe that pubic hair should allow you to do what it does naturally. But if you are a type of cut girl, our step by step guide here will help you.
Why cut there?
Many women prefer to treat their pubic hair for hygiene reasons. Another reason is their sexual preference. Although more and more women decide to go to bed there, it is more frequent than women under 45 years of age.
If done right, cut the bikini line and the bikini line is fine. Dr. Francesca Fusco, a New York City dermatologist, said the daily cut is not "unhealthy." It should only be done correctly to avoid bumps and injuries.
Below, we write about our personal routines, tips, and tricks that will give you an even cut:
HOW TO USE AN ELECTRIC TRIMMER FOR BIKINI
To make sure your cut is free from bumps and accidents, this is our proven routine. Feel free to add your own personal touch:
STEP 1. SET UP THE TRIMMER
Before starting work, make sure the electric mower is sufficiently charged. If not, you still have time to turn on 15 minutes.
Other than that, be sure to clean the blades. Some power cutters must be greased before each use. Then set the trim protector to the preferred length. Many women opt for a close shave most of the time.
We recommend a cordless trimmer for the job. It is easier to maneuver and some models can be fully washed.
STEP 2. MAKE A CUTTING START
If the hair in the bikini area is too long, you can use scissors to cut it short. This will make the cutting process faster later. Plus, it will reduce clutter. Make sure the pair of scissors you are using is for hygienic use only. Wash thoroughly before and after manual cutting.
STEP 3. GET A HOT BATH
Now is the time to get into the hot tub. This will soften the hair to facilitate cutting. It will also open up the hair follicles, which is essential for a close shave.
Soak in the tub for 5-10 minutes. Then apply a pubic hair conditioner (optional) before drying the area.
STEP 4. EXFOLIATE
After this, we recommend that you exfoliate. This will remove dead skin, prevent ingrown hair, and also give a closer cut.
However, if this is your first time cutting, in the meantime, you should skip the exfoliating part. After a few finishing sessions, you can exfoliate as your skin is already used to the process. At this point, you are less likely to develop a rash.
STEP 5. APPLYING THE SHAVING CREAM (IF MOISTURE SHAVES)
If you are using a wet trimmer, you can apply a shaving cream created specifically for the bikini area. For dry trims, pat the bikini area dry. Please note that the type of trimmer will also affect the efficiency of the preparation process.
STEP 6. TRIM, TRIM, TRIM
Now that your skin is ready, turn on the trimmer and start sliding it into the bikini area. Always cut or shave in the same direction hair grows. Trying to go "against the current" will hurt a lot. It is also a recipe for a stubble disaster.
For a better cut, gently pull on the skin. This will allow the trimmer to slide better on the skin. Also, do not push the blade into the skin. The trimmer's cutting angles will contour the skin's curves.
STEP 7. RETURN TO THE HOT TUBE
After you finish cutting the bikini area, plunge back into the hot bath water. This is important so that freshly cut hair does not bend inward and produce ingrown hair.
After 5 minutes, dry the skin. Be sure to also clean the blade and accessories with hot water.
STEP 8. APPLY ALOE VERA LOTION OR GEL
Once the skin is dry, apply baby oil to the cut area to prevent the build-up of rashes. If you have sensitive skin, you can use body lotion or aloe vera gel.
It is recommended to cut every day to avoid rashes. Plus, it'll help you get used to exercise, making it quicker to do it on busy days.
Also, always check the sharpness of your trimmer. If you use it every day, there is a chance that you will start to lose your
✂️CHOOSE THE RIGHT TRIMMER
No matter how you master a trimming routine, it will not go well if you have a faulty trimmer. Always buy one that suits your needs.
Choose between dry and wet trimmers carefully. If you can’t decide yet, look for a unit that can be used for both.
Aside from that, you’d want a trimmer that can run long in between charges. If possible, opt for a trimmer that can be washed entirely. Since you’re going to use it in the bathroom, the water resistance will prevent damage to the electronic parts.
✂️DO IT SLOW
Remember, you’re not pulling feathers from a chicken. Trimming hastily is likely to result in bumps, blisters, and rashes. Take your time and avoid pressing the blade into our skin.
Trimming your bikini area may take a while to get used to. But just like anything else, practice makes perfect.
✂️CAREFUL WITH SENSITIVE SKIN
For those who have sensitive skin, rashes are imminent after trimming. It’s important to moisturize and to warm-up your skin before putting it under the electric trimmer.
✂️DON’T IMPROVISE WITH A BLADE
It’s never a good idea to improvise with a blade. It’s a bare, sharp metal that can lacerate your bikini area in one wrong move. Also, blades alone will cause stubs and ingrown hairs.
It’s best to put off your trimming until you purchased a decent trimmer.
✂️ ALWAYS CONDITION YOUR SKIN FIRST
Before you start gliding the shaving tool on your bikini area, make sure that you condition your skin first. Let your pores open on the warm tub water. Also, pulling the skin taut a little will make the trimming easier. This will also prevent snags and painful ingrown hairs.
If you have sensitive skin, moisturizing your bikini area beforehand will also help. This will ensure smooth trimming. Anyway, it’s a bit normal to experience redness and itchiness on your first trimming. After a few sessions, your bikini area should get used to it. Nevertheless, if the itchiness persists, you should consult a dermatologist.
✂️ REMEMBER: TRIM DRY, SHAVE WET
If you’re just trimming, it’s best to do it when your bikini area is dry. However, for those who want a close shave, you should lubricate the area with water or moisturizer.
Just a reminder, though. Never use shaving creams made for the face unless you got a greenlight from a dermatologist or a gynecologist.
✂️ USE A MIRROR TO CHECK THE AREA
While trimming, you should use a mirror to check your bikini area. Since it’s a bit difficult to see, the mirror will serve as your eye down there.
