Before the advent of razors, some humans removed hair using two sea shells to pull the hair out. Later, around 3000 BCE, when copper tools were developed, humans developed copper razors. The idea of an aesthetic approach to personal hygiene may have begun at this time, though Egyptianpriests may have practiced something similar to this earlier.
Alexander the Great made shaving popular. He was fastidious about shaving. This popularity ended with Roman emperor Hadrian, who let a beard grow to hide a skin disorder.
Some hold the belief that, once shaving commences, the hair will grow out more thickly. However, this is bit of conventional wisdom happens to be false. The resulting stubble only makes the hairs seem to be thicker.
Shaving can now be done with an electric razor or a regular, manual one. If a non-electric razor is used, some lathering agent such as soap or a special shaving cream or foam is normally applied to the area to be shaved first, to avoid a painful razor burn.
Some men (and very few women) shave the hair off their heads, or at least parts of it. Shaved heads can be considered as a form of haircut.
