How is shaving different from culture to culture?

Danielle Malka (Shaving Expert ) gives expert video advice on: What is shaving?; What is wet shaving?; What is dry shaving? and more...

There are some cultures, and there are also some religions where you don't shave. Then there are some religious rules where you can shave, but shave a certain way. For example, in the Jewish religion, you are not supposed to use a blade where the throat is. So therefore they will not shave, when extremely religious, or they will just shave certain areas with electric razors. In some of the Muslim cultures, it's recommended not to shave and you can see that they grow a beard. It definitely has a cultural aspect to it, as well as a religious aspect to it. In the European world, we favored shaving more. But again, what you're faced with is like fashions. We've gone through, in the last ten years, a couple of fashions ways where culturally, for example, men were recommended to shave the whole chest. And now it's back to having a hairy chest. You'll have shaving on the face, or you'll have the little goatee. So there's really trends that are associated with fashion when it comes to shaving.
