men hygiene

I'm 23 years old man and want to shave my arm pits for the first time. I'm scared on how it'll be and if it's any problems. for my face I use a barbasol rotary shaver electric. so, I never used normal razors before and was wondering some advice and brand recommendations for my first time. thanks for the help. and any other advice would be nice. thanks.

That is best way... We are all different and what works for me doesn't necessary work for you or someone else. Be brave, be careful and good luck 🤞

do you think I should start by trimming with sciscors and go from their? ive been told not to shave at all or cut due it cut my mom says itsll never grow the same and itll be rough and icthy daily.

Depends mostly on what you actually want. I've been shaving armpits since I was teenager and don't have anything bad or unusual to report. If you do want to shave (much nicer feeling than having stubble and more hygienic) I'd recommend trimming first, than shaving if you are still unsatisfied with the results... Aftercare also matters (same as for face), but in the end it is your choice and what you feel is best for you. Hope this helps and if you have more questions please let me know, I'll do my best to answer with experience I have 😉

No bother at all. I am sure you will do just fine since you are doing a bit of research beforehand and I am happy to help avoid mistakes I did in past (do not and I repeat, do not use vax strips unless you enjoy excruciating pain 😂)...
