Women's Personal Care: Shaving

You can continue to shave your legs and underarms no matter your level of vision, but you may need a few new habits. So let's start with general shaving tips.

First off, use shaving cream or gel. It will help you keep track of where you've shaved and what's left to do. Next, if you're unsure of yourself, practice with the plastic cap on the razor until you feel more comfortable. Also, keep all your shaving supplies in one spot in your bath. That way you don't have to search for them.
