How does this work when shaving under your arms? Do you have to reapply each time you shave?
460335
No, I apply it once a week after a shower. Initially, you have to apply it daily for a few days to absorb into your system.

No, you don't have to reapply each time you shave under your arms. Just follow the directions and you will be pleased.

I usually went back and forth with and then against the grain. For me, that was primarily up and down, i.e. vertically rather than horizontally. I always shaved wet (warm water from shower but no soap or shaving gel) so I don' know if that's best for dry shaving.

It depends on how often you use it and how much you use each time. I haven't used it that much as I'm into double edge shaving and I use an Arko after shave lotion, but when I do use it, I only spray out a small amount which cover my face and neck. I usually use it at bedtime when I remember..I would think a once a day user would probably have it last 2-3 months..but that's an educated guess.

if you apply the gel twice everyday it starts to dry your skin and causes it to peel off like extreme exfoliation so your ingrowns will start to pop out on their own probably after a shower and also use exfoliating scrubs and rub untill your skin is red. the scars will probably heal over time as you exfoliate your skin a lot to renew it. also for new skin to be able to form you need to hidrate right after the shower, id recommend using an oil free moisturizer, they usually target those to people with acne. hope this helps. also if you dont want to deal with any hairs gi to laser treatment or waxing not shaving as that makes your hair thicker. if you apply the gel twice everyday it starts to dry your skin and causes it to peel off like extreme exfoliation so your ingrowns will start to pop out on their own probably after a shower and also use exfoliating scrubs and rub untill your skin is red. the scars will probably heal over time as you exfoliate your skin a lot to renew it. also for new skin to be able to form you need to hidrate right after the shower, id recommend using an oil free moisturizer, they usually target those to people with acne. hope this helps. also if you dont want to deal with any hairs gi to laser treatment... » Read More if you apply the gel twice everyday it starts to dry your skin and causes it to peel off like extreme exfoliation so your ingrowns will start to pop out on their own probably after a shower and also use exfoliating scrubs and rub untill your skin is red. the scars will probably heal over time as you exfoliate your skin a lot to renew it. also for new skin to be able to form you need to hidrate right after the shower, id recommend using an oil free moisturizer, they usually target those to people with acne. hope this helps. also if you dont want to deal with any hairs gi to laser treatment or waxing not shaving as that makes your hair thicker. « Show Less

Yes it works even after showering and shaving. I use it every other night to prevent the "stinging" in the mornings after my shower I use my other deordant (more I think for psychological reasons-you have to put on deordant in the mornings). I know this is an old post, but wanted to chime in any way.

Yes, I use this on my underarms all the time, it's so awesome. You can place the metal cup directly on the stove (just be careful when gently stirring as it heats up, so that the melted wax does not spill over on stove). I have used this for 7 years, I love it!!!

Can you tell me how this shaver performs? It is a bit pricey, and there are only two reviews on Amazon's product page, one not even by the user, but by his wife. How does it do getting the hairs on the neck? I often suffer from razor burn on my neck, and also am getting tired of having to rotate my 6 yold Norelco (battery is also dying) in circular patterns several times over the same spots to get a close shave..

Yes, it works very well for underarm shaving. Just make sure you pull your skin taunt so that you get a closer shave and avoid shaving nicks.

I didn't use it on my underarms, I used it on my elbows and it didn't work. It also made them very, very dry - even with moisturizer. Hope this helps!

It works great under arms. And also works on legs..BUT, you have to use a lot of wax on your legs. I hade to use a hole jar for my legs.

It is the best razor I have found for my face but it does shave close. Don't know if it would irritate your underarms but using it as a wet shaver would probably prevent that. If you can afford it I would go for it.

Yep, I use it on my head. Shave every 3 or 4 days but I don't have a very heavy beard. Works fine.

Never tried it underarms but it would be tricky. I use the Epilady and it works there for me.

Works very well, I prefer it to shaving. I use it about every 2 weeks on the entire region. I'll keep it PG... I use a generous amount (like icing on a cake) and I do 9-10 minutes for "the waist to the groin" and 8-9 minutes on "the boys," "the undercarriage," and "the rear." Armpits for about 9-10 minutes. Wash all areas well immediately after you remove hair and cream with the squeegee tool. Applied areas might be a little sensitive for a few hours after use but will recover in less than a day. Some baby powder helps to keep sensitive areas from rubbing one another.

It has done wounders for me. I generally shave twice in the day and use my after shave immediately following. This razor is low maintenance and I'm happy with my purchase. I suggests that you use some really good shaving cream, something that really lathers your face to reduce your chances of breaking out.

My wife has but she mainly uses it on her legs and under arms. It seems to be working great. She now is only shaving her legs once a week.

This is not a problem that I have experienced and I have very oily skin. I use shaving cream each time I shave since it gives a closer shave and feels better than shaving dry. I clean the shaver under the hot water faucet after each shave. The foil and blades are still like new with no residue or other sign of any kind of buildup.
