Facial hair is normal. So is removing it.
It’s just that no one talks about it.
- Female founded
- Skin-kind, reusable tools
- Designed for your at-home ritual
A note from our founder.
Facial hair was never something I thought about. Until I did.
Hey, I’m Lindsay, co-founder of Make My Shave, the place for dermaplaning and shave care designed for women.
We launched in 2021 with our signature women’s razor. Then, as I got older, I started noticing changes to my facial hair. Honestly, I felt a bit embarrassed by it, but I also found myself wondering, why does nobody talk about this?
I wanted to help make that conversation feel normal, while growing our collection of skin-kind, reusable tools. So we launched our first all-metal dermaplaner, followed by our much-loved dermaplaning ritual.
Whether you choose to remove your hair, embrace it, or do a bit of both, it’s your body, your routine, your rules.
Thank you for being here.

Facial Hair Is Normal. What You Do With It Is Your Choice
My Favourite Ritual:
One simple ritual. More from your skincare. Better-looking makeup.
Remove peach fuzz and dead surface skin to reveal a smoother, brighter-looking canvas, in just a few minutes at home.
✓ Instantly smoother, brighter-looking skin
✓ Makeup glides on smoother
✓ Removes peach fuzz + dull, dead surface skin
✓ Hair won't grow back thicker or darker
✓ Facial Oil adds glide while nourishing your skin barrier
✓ Reusable metal handle + 3 replaceable blades
Your at-home dermaplaning ritual. No appointment. No fuss.
The question everyone asks...
No, it will not grow back thicker or darker.
Is it safe to do at home?
Yes, with care. Our dermaplaner is designed for at-home use, with a single blade and a textured exfoliating edge made for facial dermaplaning. As you glide it across the skin, it removes peach fuzz and gently exfoliates away dull surface skin cells.
It is still a blade, so take it slowly. Slow, steady strokes, light pressure and the right angle make all the difference.
You can dermaplane dry, or add a few drops of our dermaplaning facial oil for extra glide. Both work. Not sure where to start? Our ritual is just below.
Is a dermaplaner the same as a razor?
No. A dermaplaner does two jobs at once. It removes peach fuzz, and it removes the dead skin sitting on top. That's why skin looks smoother and makeup sits better.
Who is dermaplaning for?
Dermaplaning is for anyone noticing new hairs on her chin or jawline, or peach fuzz that wasn't there before. It's normal and more common than you think, especially through perimenopause and beyond.
It's for women who'd like a smoother canvas for makeup and skincare that actually absorbs, without booking a salon.
And if you'd rather embrace it, that's yours to decide too. We just think you should have a proper tool if you'd like one.
How often should you dermaplane?
Every 2–4 weeks is the recommended starting point.
How often you should dermaplane depends on your skin and your hair. You may dermaplane closer to 3 weeks if your peach fuzz regrows quickly or your skin renews fast.
You may wait 4–5 weeks if your skin is sensitive, dry, or mature, or if you notice any tightness or redness after a session.
The most reliable guide isn't the calendar, it's your skin.
Will hair grow back thicker or darker?
No. It's one of the most common worries, and it's a myth. Dermaplaning removes soft, fine vellus hair at the surface. It doesn't touch the root, so your hair grows back the way it always did. New hair can feel a little blunt as it returns, because it's been cut at the surface. It's the same hair.
How to Dermaplane at Home
If you’re new to dermaplaning at home, Beckie shares a few simple tips to help you get started.
The start of a beautiful shave
Where Make My Shave Began...
I often get asked, why did you develop a women's razor in a market dominated by men's needs and big brands?
Honestly, I was in the shower, shaving with the same style of pink plastic razor I’d used as a teenager, when something shifted. For the first time, I questioned why. Why was this still my standard? Then I realised there simply weren’t many other options. Men had an abundance of shaving brands to choose from. I didn't.
Make My Shave was born in that moment. I decided to stop settling and, with the help of my hubby, Mike, build a more intentional shaving experience. One that's kinder to skin and the planet.
