I shave myself occasionally so here are some of my tips:
If you haven’t shaved at all, you’re going to need a few razors. Hair gets stuck in the blades and there’s only so many times you can get it out before it starts to build.
Buy men’s razors! It’s easier to get through course hair (I used to do this before I even started transitioning and even before I came out as trans!)
You can shave in the direction against the hair (many tips will say otherwise) but be careful and slow. Rushing it can make you nip the skin and cause ingrown hairs. Use lots of lotion or soap and never use just water if you do this.
TRIM AS MUCH HAIR AS YOU CAN BEFORE SHAVING. The less hair to shave, the quicker it will be.
Use non-scented soap, especially for the lips, when shaving. If you want a smoother finish, use hair conditioner once most of the hair is gone. Don’t use the conditioner near the inside 😰
Laying down but with your back raised (like you’re in the bathtub or sat up in bed) with your legs spread and bent will help. A mirror is always helpful but your hand will get in the way. I use my non-shaving hand to guide me as well by feeling my skin to see where the hair is.
Ass crack is hard to do. Accept that you will never completely remove every single hair. Try to do some of it with your legs tucked behind your head (as if you were being fucked missionary) and go slowly. It takes a long time to do the ass. Once you’ve done around there, stand up and spread your cheeks as much as you can to shave your ass crack, you will need to have your hand behind you to do this.
If you have hair on your cheeks, do that stood up too.
When doing the lips, pull on your labia to make the skin flatter. This will help to avoid cutting the skin and let you shave more hair off. (Sorry this one is hard to explain what I mean)
Shaving my pussy and ass is time consuming. The whole process can take up to an hour and longer if I shave my legs and stomach as well.
Always moisturise after! Razor burn is real and it’s annoying as fuck. Keep moisturising for a few days.
Finished shaving but found out you missed a part or still have stubble? Use tweezers to yank them out. If it’s a larger patch then just shave that part again.
It will grow back fast, especially if you’re on T. If you want longer lasting hair removal, I’d recommend waxing it or using an epilator (I used an epilator on the front of my pussy but shaved the folds and ass).
There are some shaving videos out there, I think. I once filmed myself shaving to send to someone, I can see if I still have that and maybe post screenshots of it or something.
