why do i keep getting cuts my razor?

Question

i keep buying regular razors with 2 blades and when their new they still cut my armpits.......lol and i do it slow its really wird what should i do?

Answer 1

go electric

Answer 2

you should use the razor several times to shave your legs so that it will get dull and won;t cut you. You don't have to go but something new , i've tried a lot of razors and i think there all pretty much the same. Don't shave your armpits dry, at least use shaving cream/ gel or soap & water! =]

Answer 3

You're not shaving on straight skin are you? You have to use a shaving gel or cream on the underarms and then shave them. Water is not protective enough, and the blade will not glide, no matter how careful you are. It needs to have a surface to glide off of. I just use Olay Creme Ribbons or Avon Fusions Shower Cream. Works great! Hair conditioner works too!

Answer 4

get a good razor one of the new 3 or 4 blades, they wont cut, been there...

Answer 5

you do do it in the shower or after right? should help. and get a better razor. one with more blades. you wouldnt think but the fusion for men, the one with 5 blades, it's pretty awesome!

Answer 6

Perhaps you need to buy a more expensive razor. I cut myself with the inexpensive ones.

Answer 7

That used to happen to me. Now when I get a new razor, I shave my legs with it first to dull it up a little bit.

Answer 8

I have a very similar problem. I can rarely ever shave my underarms smoothly, without cuts or ingrown hairs. Maybe you should try getting them waxed.

Answer 9

buy a schick quatro 4 blades. I've never been cut by one. they give the smoothest shave too.

Answer 10

try one of those razors that prevent in grown hairs, they have little guards on them to keep them from cutting in to deep

Answer 11

Razors are different try a new one.
