Facial hair can be a source of insecurity for many women, with conditions like hirsutism linked to hormonal imbalances such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Dr. Gurveen Waraich, a dermatologist at Garekars MD Dermatology Clinics in Delhi, advocates for shaving as a simple and effective method for hair removal. She dispels common myths, asserting that shaving does not cause hair to grow back thicker or faster. Dr. Waraich offers three key tips for a safe shaving experience: First, never shave on dry skin; always use a moisturizer or shaving gel to ensure a smooth glide and prevent redness. Second, shave in the direction of hair growth to avoid irritation and painful ingrown hairs. Lastly, she recommends avoiding skincare products with active ingredients on the day of shaving to reduce the risk of irritation. Following these guidelines can help achieve a clean shave while maintaining skin health.
