Can someone advise me? My 14yo DS is getting a shadow. I have bought a small phillips electric razor - as non scary looking as I can find, as that's what other parents have suggested.
But whenever I mention starting to shave he goes silent.
Just now I mentioned it again as he as an important event coming up in a couple of weeks (involves TV, can't say more) and I thought he should take a proper look and see what he thinks he looks like. Stupid H said in front of him "he can't, he will be red raw the first time he shaves". Not what my nervous DS needed.
So the question is - will he be "red raw" and if so how can I prevent this.
I don't need the debate about whether he should shave before this event - I'm OK about him choosing to wait a bit, just want to know how it will be when he does.
