What would you say is the best razor? I have both the Shick Intuition and the Venus Breeze. I want a razor (or good dipilatory) that will keep me smooth for a long time on my legs, bikini area, and underarms. Currently my leg hair grows back with in like 9 hours because i shave before i go to bed but when i wake up they are slightly stubbly.

Venus baldes last for a long while but dont give a great "close chave".
If you are gunna shave your bikini area then i reccommend bikini zone. To keep it from irritation bumps, and it keeps the hair away a little longer than a blade alone. all you do is but it on immidiately after you shave, when your dry.
as for legs-I would reccommened carefree hari removeal. It keeps your legs sleek with no hair for almost a week. its very good i've used it during the week when i have to study for tests and go to swim practice because i just dont ahve the time to shave. so deffinitly thing about the care free stuff.

Like the person before me said, it depends on the person. Some girls just have quicker hair growth. Nair or Veet aren't good ideas either. The hair has to be a certain length in order to use them (about 1/4 of an inch) and if it isn't it'll just burn your skin.
Here are some ideas that might help you stay smoother for longer:
-Shave in the mornings instead of at night
-Run bathwater to shave in, don't do it in the shower
-Soak in hot water to make the hair soft before shaving
-Exfoliate with exfoliating body wash and a loofa before shaving the area
-Make sure the razor is sharp
-Apply lotion twice a day to make the skin smoother
-After you shave, later up slightly again and go over the area with the razor once more before getting out

You say it can take as little as 9 hours for your hair to grow back. Bingo! Everyone is different in the hair department.
You can either shave in mornings or try other ways, such as wax. Waxing lasts alot longer and no, it doesn't have to hurt. :)
If the quickness your hair grows back really bothers you, you could get treatment for it if you visit a beautician, although that could be a waste of money, if you simply do it your self with wax strips or hair removal cream.
Also, it's worth trying different creams/gels etc before you shave. Why don't you try conditioner? It may make your skin feel smoother and the hairs less noticeable as they start to grow back. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
