Bikini Shaving + Care

Shaving Myths Debunked

Tip 1

Help, I’ve never groomed my bikini area before! Any tips for first-timers?

Relax! First, decide what look you want—do you want to neatly trim or remove hair completely? Then, use a trimmer like the new Venus Bikini Trimmer for a shortened, groomed look or as a precursor (and timesaver) to becoming beautifully bare. A fresh Venus Embrace razor is perfect for shaving through newly trimmed bikini hair.

Beach-worthy bikini shaving tips

Since bikini area hairs are naturally coarser, soak hair in warm water and apply a moisturizing shave gel like Satin Care Sensitive Skin Shave Gel to help prevent bumps and burn. Hold skin taut so that it’s level—like the skin on your legs. First shave in the direction of hair growth to shorten, then against the grain for extra closeness. Rinse the area in cool water to close pores—and moisturize. Wait 24 hours before sun exposure to protect the sensitive skin.

Can I just use scissors for trimming?

Ditch the awkward scissors or your boyfriend’s clippers and get the right tool for the job. We love the new Venus Bikini Trimmer, by the way—no batteries, no exposed blades, just a safe, disposable trimmer that you use with the same motion of a razor.

How do I take care of my bikini area after shaving?

Moisturizing is key after you shave your legs, so it should be no surprise that your bikini area needs a little TMC (tender moisturizing care) too! First, don’t forget to use a shave gel when shaving the bikini area. After the shower, apply moisturizer to soothe freshly shaved, sensitive skin. Then finish with a light dusting of powder to seal in moisturizer and keep skin silky and smooth.

I’ve heard about a Brazilian Shave. What is it?

Basically, you remove all hair from the bikini area. That’s right. Everywhere. The key to any bikini-area look is staying with what makes you feel best. Whether you’re going totally bare or just neatly trimmed, remember that a trimmer made just for the bikini area can help make any look simpler to achieve.

Your bikini area isn’t just about swimsuit season! Getting a beautiful look in the bikini spots you don’t share with the world is all about self-esteem. So go ahead—look and feel like a Goddess in your sexy lingerie, all year ‘round.
 
Trimming bikini hair in the shower is always such a hassle.
Since the shower is a perfect place to get your bikini area into shape, we’ve taken the hassle out of trimming with the new Venus Bikini Trimmer. The warm water helps soften coarse hair to make it easier to cut and the trimmer quickly trims hair to length with every stroke—so it’s as easy as shaving in the shower.
