Only use a single- or double-blade razor You might think the more blades the better, but dermatologists warn that the more blades a razor has the more likely you'll experience irritation. "Multiple blades cause the hair to lift and cut the hair underneath the skin," Lily Talakoub, M.D., Dermatologist at McLean Dermatology tells us.
