Question 1

is shaving risk-free?

Accepted Answer

Mostly: If you use clean shavers and stick to your own without borrowing them,  it is pretty much safe.  There is a risk in those with very curly hair that close shaving may cause the hair to grow into the skin causing focal pustules and diffuse acne.   There is no harm in having the hairs cut off by shaving except perhaps under the taliban.
