That tip about getting a closer shave with going in all directions is amazing.

Previously I was just a "up" shaver

Oh yes, have always done that and it really does work. Think I read it in one of my mum's magazines when I was a teenager!

Shave Shock
Epilate Shock

Hot Wax is the way.
Yes you need to know the direction of hair growth but few things in life as satisfying as whisking those follicles out with a hot wax strip.

I thought everyone did it? Also go from left to right :)

Or epilate which is MUCH better!

I've always shaved my pits in all directions. Does this mean I am cutting edge in the pit area?

I'm not so hairy to do epilation. Plus am wuss.

Just swoosh swoosh
