A random hair along the side of the face or neck
You might laugh, but random chin and jawline hairs pop up at the most random times and there is a right way to handle them. The question is: pluck it out or shave it off? “I’m more of a fan of shaving because I see a lot of people who pluck and then traumatize their skin,” Levin says.
So here’s how to do it. According to the good doctor, make sure the area is clean and free from cuts or abrasions. Apply a shave gel or cream, like Aveeno Therapeutic Shave Gel for Sensitive Skin, $3.96, and then – and this is the important part – make sure the blade is fresh and sharp, especially if you’re using the razor you would normally use to shave your legs. “The amount of shaving you do on your legs and under your arms dulls out your razor blade quicker, and you want that razor blade to be sharp.” Also, you kind of don’t want to transfer what’s on your legs to your face, so just pop on a fresh blade and get rid of it asap.
