What disposable shaver out there, is the best and safest for the bikini area? Not just the bikini line, but the entire area. I'd prefer not having to buy a regular shaver with batteries, just the disposable kind I can throw out after using. If there's no disposable, then I guess I'll have to buy a regular kind.

Any suggestions please?

TIA

I think the Schick intuition is better than the Venus. I've used both.

But are those safe for the private parts? I've checked the packaging and they don't mention it.

Shaving only cuts the hair down to a certain length. The bikini hair is bristly. You might be very sorry that you shaved. Waxing is better for that area.

Actually, I have very few hairs there. I have done laser several years ago, so it's usually all smooth. I am pregnant now b'H, and the hormones do make some hairs pop out here and there. Smooth, fine hair, but it still grows. I do not want to go for waxing; this is only temporary for those nine months. But I still want to remove the hair. I am very finicky over hair anywhere on my body.

I usually wax, but for the occasional touch up between waxings, I use the Venus shaver. It works just fine, for me.

Please can someone clue me in?

Do you wax by yourself or go to a place? If you do it by yourself which product do you use? Or if you go to a place aren't you completely embarrassed? Also how often do you need to do it and how much does it cost? (I understand it varies but approximately.

Sorry, don't judge me. I'm completely surprised by this.

I've used them without a problem. I have very sensitive skin and I use the sensitive skin intuition just fine.

I use the intuition everywhere else, but not there. When I use the intuition (like if I'm in a rush or something) I get sore - not from the shaving, but on the delicate tissues outside the vag*na because the soapy stuff runs down there. I use sensitive skin shave gel - like aveeno - along with the venus razor and it's great for me. Now that I'm 6months pregnant I can't really see down there, but it'hasn't been a problem so far.
