Softly's community

She asked about shaving. Now what?

She mentioned swimming. Or sports. Or that other girls in her class have started.

You remember your own first shave: the nicks, the burn, pressing too hard because nobody showed you how. You don't want that for her. You also don't want her to feel there's anything wrong with her body.

There's a gentler way to start.

Why electric shavers pull, and how to avoid it

A common reason electric shavers pull is that the round shaver head gets used on longer hair. It's made to smooth short hair, so on longer hair it can catch instead of cut.

That's why Softly has two tools in one.

Trim first

The trimmer end takes the length down first.

Smooth second

Pop off the bottom cap, then glide the round shaver head over the shortened hair for a smooth finish.

Both tools are in one device, so the right step is always in your hand.

Her first shave in 3 calm steps

Show her how

Try it on your own arm or leg first. It takes the mystery out of it.

Trimming, then smoothing, with Softly

Trim, then smooth

Just glide it over the skin: trimmer first, then the round head. It's that simple.

Wipe it clean and charge it up with the USB-C cable. Ready for next time.

Her body, her choice. This just makes the first step easier for both of you.

Questions parents ask

Straight answers, including the ones that aren't flattering.

Will it pull her hair?

Pulling usually happens when the round shaver head is used on longer hair. Trim first with the trimmer end, then smooth with the round head, as the First Shave Guide in the box shows.

Does it shave as close as a razor?

No, and we won't pretend it does. A blade will always be closer. Softly gives a smooth finish and is made for beginners, and she can move to a razor later if she wants.

Is it loud?

It's not that loud. You'll hear a quiet, steady motor sound, nothing harsh or startling, so it's easy for a first-timer to get comfortable with.

Is it waterproof?

Yes. Softly is waterproof, so you can use it in the shower and rinse it clean under the tap. Just make sure it's dry before you plug in the USB-C cable to charge.

Is she too young to start?

There's no set age. If she's asking, a calm conversation and a beginner-friendly tool is a reasonable place to start, and it's always her choice.

What if it doesn't work for us?
