I use ladies razor to shave off my arm and leg. Is it not safe to use razor for shaving? Does the skin turn black later? I use razor once a month for shaving.

Hello Soumi Razor hair removal is completely safe. People who have a tendency to get dark spots at sites of friction may develop a dark skin after razor hair removal. You can use skin lightening creams for the skin darkening that happens .
