Ouch!

I just shaved my underarms using Tonys razor. I've never used it before but I thought I'd borrow it for the quickest.
I wish I hadn't! it practically pulled the hairs out by the root and has left me with a terrible sore rash!
I'm going out tonight to a special 'do' and now I won't even be able to wear deodorant because of this soreness.
Wish I'd stuck to my usual method - shaving cream & safety disposable razor.
More haste - less speed!!

There's a reason why they make razors especial designed for women!
I know the strident ones don't like to face it, but females are, in the main, generally softer than males, and long may it remain so.

Crikey Carol ! I bet it will be a bit touchy under your arms for a day or two.
Are you wearing a sleeveless top?
You wont do that again in a hurry.

Poor you Carol, it must be horribly painful. I must be lucky because my armpits stopped producing hair 15 or 20 years ago!

I don't have to do mine as much as I used to but I thought that's because I use an epilator - which does pull the hairs out by the roots, Carol! - and the hair grows back finer and more slowly than when you shave. It's great on legs, especially.
PS. I think my OH would start divorce proceedings if I used something meant for his face on my armpits!!
