Choosing the Right Razor Matters
When it comes to shaving your bikini line, it’s important to remember that the skin in the bikini area is delicate, while the hair can often be more coarse than on your legs or underarms. That’s why the razor you plan to use on your bikini area needs to be sharp, precise, and yet gentle all at once. The best razor blades for women usually feature multiple blades (think five or more blades) to remove hair in fewer passes, and moisture strips infused with Aloe vera or shea butter, to help the blade glide smoothly and soothe your skin while you shave. Shaving Club’s Domon Dolly and Wonderflex6 razors have mastered this essential combination, offering women’s razors that tackle the bikini area easily. Domon Dolly razors boast five L-shaped, premium-quality, super-sharp steel blades paired with an irritation-defense, in the form of lubrication strips in a rounded cartridge to minimize bumps and nicks. They are a game-changer for those prone to razor burn after shaving. Then there’s the Wonderflex6 razor made by Dorco, a huge favorite among women’s razors. With its double, 3-blade, flexible rounded cartridge, the Wonderflex6 delivers a close shave super fast. Both of these options prove that the best razor blades for women prioritize comfort as much as performance, making them ideal for sensitive areas.
Shaving Club has the right razor to tackle your bikini area grooming needs with ease.

Shaving Technique Matters
But what about your shaving technique? The Shaving Club team all agrees that even the best women’s razor won’t save you from ingrown hairs or skin irritation if you don’t prepare your skin properly before shaving. Here are some of our team’s tips:
- Start by trimming longer hair with scissors or a trimmer. This makes shaving smoother and prevents your razor from getting clogged with hairs.
- Next, have a warm shower or soak a relaxing warm bath for a few minutes to soften the hair and open pores.
- Apply a shaving cream or gel (fragrance-free is best for sensitive skin) to create a protective barrier and lather that will help the razor glide over your skin.
- When shaving, go slow and steady, moving the razor in the direction of the hair growth to avoid skin irritation.
- Rinse with cool water afterward and gently pat skin dry. Do not rub the skin as rubbing can aggravate the skin and leave it red and irritated.
- Finish with a gentle, unscented moisturizer to lock in hydration and calm any redness.
- Pair this with regular exfoliation — say, once a week with a mild scrub — and you’ll keep ingrown hairs at bay.
So How Do You Choose?
Choosing the best women’s razor for you will depend on your priorities. If you want affordability and convenience, 3-blade, unisex razors are great. For a long-term investment, razors designed especially for women with rounded cartridge blades, like the Domon Dolly Lemon, Lime or Peach or out Wonderflex6, offer premium quality blades and handles that deliver better control. If you have sensitive skin, opting for good quality razors with lubrication strips means achieving smooth skin in fewer passes.
Whichever razor you choose, replace your blades regularly — every 5-10 shaves is perfect — to keep them sharp and hygienic, and keep your skin feeling its best.
