THIS Bizarre Hack For Shaving Your Pubes Is All Over the Internet

If crying as if you're in labour when the kind professional yanks at your lady bits like it's just play-time is SO NOT your thing, you're probably wary of the bikini wax, and prefer the razor. That is, if you too don't like any hair on your vajajay. (It's completely okay if you prefer to go au naturel.)

​

We've come across multiple pieces of advice on how to get this right. 'cos even though it isn't really rocket science, we inevitably end up with those nasty cuts and scrapes that make it seem like the Battle of Bastards just took place there!

While you're probably swearing by your trusty ol' conditioner as your razor's lubricant to glide on, we have NEWS. Beauty bloggers and experts have talked about how switching that for oil (particularly olive oil) has worked wonders for them. As bizarre as it sounds, they believe that the oil is hydrating and is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids that can benefit the skin. As opposed to using shaving cream, or conditioner which contains chemicals that may alter the pH levels of the vagina, not to mention the fact that the moisturising agent inside these products tends to leave behind a protective film on the skin that blunts the razor blade, preventing a smooth canvas.

Have a look at this video that is explaining all about it:

 

Who would have thought that oil out of all the components in your beauty paraphernalia would come in handy while shaving down there? But, there's a big flip side to it, which derms across the world are discussing. Most oils, be it olive or coconut, tend to be a bit comedogenic, which simply means they can block the pores of the skin, and cause irritation and allergic reactions on the tender skin of your bikini line. In fact, it may even cause yeast infections, as per some experts.

So, even though it may seem like soaking your vajajay-land in a pool of olive oil is your answer to all pubic shaving problems, it may not really be. It's bad enough that we have to deal with an oily T-zone, who wants the vagina to enter that devilish territory?
