When you shave your legs, are you only supposed to go up to the knee and stop? Or are you supposed to do the entire leg? I've heard some people use shampoo, is that ok? or am I better off with using shaving cream? (which is best, and whick razor is best)

And if I use a cream, should I still try doing the entire leg?

I am going to the beach in three weeks and would like to have a nice (not very dark) base tan so I don't burn on the first day there or look all pale and flabby in my bikini.
I am pretty pale and I burn easily. How often should I go to the tanning bed over the next three weeks, and for how many minutes each time? I really don't want to get orange.

I am getting my septum pierced in two weeks. I am going to a place with a very good reputation, and I know two people who have personally gotten pierced and tattooed at this particular parlor.

What should I look for to make sure everything is standard? I've never been pierced or tattooed before, so I don't know if everything should be packaged, how much disinfecting they should be doing to the tools, etc.

Also, how likely is it that I may get AIDS? I am HYPER paranoid, but I'd just like to know. And yes, I realize that I'd have to be pierced with the same needle that someone with AIDS got pierced with. That's why I need to know what should packaged, disinfected, etc

I heard you can get fungus growing underneath your nails if you have fake ones, if this is true how can you prevent this from happening?

Yesterday I went to a permanent cosmetic establishment that also removes tattoos, what they do is tattoo a saline solution and antiseptic onto your tatt then they mix sea salt with water and place it on top of the tatt to extract the ink. They then scoop it off (no rubbing it in).I have to wait till it scabs over and let it fall off naturally to see the results and the lady said it continues to fade months later. I know someone else has had this done out there. Im wondering what your results where and did you have scarring? I couldnt do much research about this procedure because there is none on the web!! Its not salabration or dermabrasion...the place i went to didn't have many pic results but this establishment is certified with the board of permanent cosmetics and on the local news alot for donating this to x gang members. My arm is killing me and is still a bright red, but I'm not too worried YET. Anyone that has had this done, your opinion about it is most definetely appreciated!!

A friend of mine told me that there is non-permanent tattoo, it is like the tattoo can last for 3-4 years only. Is it true? So far, I have not heard of non-permanent tattoo, I thought all tattoo are permaent???

I play ice hockey a lot so I get pretty sweated up and sometimes my face breaks out but not a big problem. I do also fish a lot on my boat and this seems to be where the problem is coming from. Between the sun and the rays reflecting off the water my face takes a beating. I'm 28 and still look young from staying in shape but I want to start taking care of my face properly. I use noxema as a wash after hockey, and then I put oil of olay complete spf 15 lotion on afterwards. Is there something more I should do as far as product wise. There were sooo many oil of olay products on the shelf to choose from. This country boy need help !

My husband and I have a few tattoos each. We both recently got one (two days ago) and he insists that he should put triple antibiotic ointment on it. I did that once to one and then later was told by the artist, that had to re-do it, that I used "too much" triple antibiotic ointment. They don't even tell you know to use that. I was told to just use soap and water, then when dry a thin layer of non fragranced, hypoallergenic lotion. Mine is doing well. My husband, quite larger, was given an actual tattoo salve, (called tat wax) but yet he is still using triple antibiotic ointment, stating "it can't hurt". I don't think he/we should be using any ointment they didn't tell us to use when we left the tattoo place. His tat is actually red looking all around it. So, is he supposed to be using the triple antibiotic ointment and could it actually be harming the fresh tattoo?

What lotion would you recommend to use on legs? My legs have a lot of bumps/dots on them (kinda noticable). Especially in my upper thighs. They are pretty dry too. I want smooth and toned legs. I use the Shick Intuition razor and just apply the body wash/oil for babies (Johnson) while taking a shower.

What would you recommend?

(please don't recommend waxing. )

I like tatoos but I don't know if I can comit to a permanent one. I was wondering if there is an option to getting temporary tatoos that are not the kind you stick on with water.

The reason I ask this is because my cousin this past June said that a lady told her that you can wash your tan away if you have tanned outside. My best friend and I told her that it is impossible to 'wash' your tan away from being outside. We said that you could wash the tan away gradually by self-tanning lotion but not by being outside. She didn't believe us. I don't believe it...so what do you think?

K. So my husband is deploying to Iraq and will not be able to wear his wedding ring for safety reasons. So we are wanting to do some kind of tattooing on our fingers so he can still have that representation. Ive read alot about how if you get a band all the way around it will fade on the underside of your finger very quickly. So I thought we could get each others names tattooed very small on top of our fingers. Shane on mine and Amanda on his. (My theory here is that people at amusement parks put your name on rice all the time. ???) I have had a really horrible time trying to find pictures on the web. Alot of talk about tattooed wedding bands but like no pictures. So if someone could tell me where to find some or just some more good advice, Id really appreciate it. Also, we both already have tattoos...if thats important. ??? And we'd like them to be small enough to be hidden under our rings. Between an 1/8th of an inch and a 1/6th of an inch. :S A design of ivy wouldnt be bad. Thanks!

Hi, I moisturise my skin twice a day with Dove facial moisturiser, but lately have had crusty skin bits around my nose and scaly patches around my mouth as well. Is there something else I can do to have nice moist skin? Thanks,
