Re: Is a FOIL shaver BAD for the face (LADIES)???
No you still did not get the point. and if anyone is getting the idea that if you remove facial hair like a man your face will end up like a man, then they need to reread what I said.
to touch a man's face may seem rough because of the hair. if you are focused on the skin only then forget about hair and talk about skin, because when you touch you are touchign skin and hair both..you are getting a mixed texture and to say that skin is rough is not right, because its not the skin, its the hair.
now unless woman grows a beard as thick as a man's its not going feel the same to touch as a man's face.
and aside from men's skin being 15% or so thicker and in general oilier, there is no major distinction.
smooth and delicate are not the same thing first of all..
while a case can be made that the skin (mind it we are not talking how the face feels to the touch due to hair) is basically just as smooth if it is equally well taken care of.
speaking of how delicate it is, in its natural state a man's facial skin while being as smooth as a woman's skin is able to take more because it is about 15% thicker.
but due to that shaving it is in a more delicate condition so it actually needs more tlc then women's skin.
summary
skin can be just as smooth
skin+beard texture feel is not the feel of the skin..
men's skin is thicker..does not mean less smooth
men's skin faces more trauma then womens' and is typically in a more delicate/fragile condition. hence the sensitive skin shaving gels and creams.
