Trimming is one of the easiest, safest, and most fuss-free ways to stay groomed, especially when you’ve got the right tool.
But like with skincare or makeup, a few tiny habits can make a big difference in how smooth and comfy your experience feels.
This is a quick bestie checklist of smart trimming tips to help you get the best results every time. Whether you're shaping your brows or slaying your bikini line, here are 5 things to keep in mind to level up your trim game like a pro.
Tip 1: Prep Your Skin
Before you even switch on your women’s trimmer, it’s important to prep your skin. Think of it like setting your base before foundation; it makes everything smoother, glowy, and longer-lasting.
Why prepping is important:
1. Softens the hair and opens pores so your trimmer glides effortlessly.
2. Gives a smoother finish, i.e, clean, soft skin = a closer, more even trim
3. It also prevents ingrown hair as exfoliating helps remove dead skin cells that can trap hair follicles and lead to ingrown hairs.
Bae Hack: Moisturizing before using a trimmer is recommended, especially for sensitive areas like the bikini line. Applying a thin layer of moisturizer can help create a barrier, protect the skin, and minimize irritation from the trimmer.
How to prep like a pro:
1. Cleanse the area
Use a gentle cleanser to remove sweat, oil, or makeup. You want a fresh, clean base before hair removal.
2. Exfoliate (optional, but gold)
Gently exfoliate the area before using a hair removal machine to get rid of dead skin. This helps prevent ingrown hair and makes your trim extra smooth.
3. Pat dry, not dripping wet
Before trimming, towel-dry the area so there’s no excess water. Damp skin = good. Dripping wet = not so much.
Tip #2: Use the Comb
Women’s Trimmers are all about control, and combs are the real MVPs when it comes to controlling how much hair you want to remove.
Why it matters:
1. Combs control hair length; you decide how close or minimal the trim should be.
2. It adds a layer of protection between the blade and the skin, especially helpful for beginners.
How to do it:
1. Just attach a protective comb to your women’s trimmer when you want to keep some length or just tidy up.
2. Want a closer, neater trim? Use your hair removal machine without the comb — just make sure your skin is clean, soft, and prepped.
3. For eyebrows, you’ve got options:
Want a soft, natural shape? → Use the comb over your eyebrow trimmer.
Want a sharp, defined arch? → Use your women's trimmer directly, without the comb (go slow and steady, bae ✨).
Bombae’s 6-in-1 women’s trimmer includes combs for both: the 2-way eyebrow shaper and the intimate head, so you can trim how you like — whether it’s minimal clean-up or SmoothAF glam.
Tip #3: Understand Trimming Direction
Why it matters:
1. Going with the direction of hair growth gives you more control and keeps the trim super comfortable, especially if you're just looking for a light cleanup.
2. Going against the direction gives a closer, sharper finish, especially when you want that extra-smooth look.
How to do it:
1. Use short, light strokes and keep the trimmer at a slight angle for best control in whichever direction you are using your women’s trimmer.
2. If needed, gently stretch the skin (especially on underarms or bikini zone) to create a flatter surface for the blade.
Tip #4: Don’t Skip Post-Trim Care
You’ve trimmed. You’re glowing. Now let your skin soak it in. Post-trim care isn’t extra, it’s essential.
Why it matters:
1. Trimming reveals fresh skin that deserves a little TLC.
2. A quick post-trim routine helps lock in smoothness and comfort.
Think of it as the final step in your glow-up, because smooth skin deserves a smooth finish.
How to do it:
-
Apply a hydrating, soothing balm (like Bombae’s Post-Shave Balm) to seal in moisture, reduce any chance of irritation, and leave your skin feeling SmoothAF.
-
Wear loose, breathable clothing post-trim if possible, especially after using your trimmer for women in areas that experience more movement or friction.
Tip #5: Clean Your Women’s Trimmer After Every Use
Your trimmer takes care of you, so give it a quick rinse of appreciation, bae. Keeping it clean isn’t just hygiene, it’s how you keep your glow consistent.
Why it matters:
1. Clean blades = smooth glide = better results.
2. Regular cleaning keeps your hair removal machine performing at its best, every time.
3. It helps extend the life of your women’s trimmer (and your investment).
4. Plus, a fresh tool just feels... ✨right✨.
How to do it:
1. Use the cleaning brush (included with Bombae trimmers) to remove any hair or product buildup.
2. If you use your women's trimmer in the shower, let all the parts air dry completely before storing it.
