“I have a calendar for shaving. I have sensitive skin, which means that if I shave when my body hair is too short, I’m much more likely to cut/tear the skin. I’ve figured out the shortest time I can go without having excessive bleeding risk, hence the calendar. The funny thing is that it varies on the area. I can’t shave my underarms any less than three days apart, legs four (thighs sometimes five, depending on the humidity), and bikini area a week.” — Runa
