you can SEE the hair fall out - seriously... you can see the skin turn a different color (which is really the root of hair)

Can you shave after the tanning process is completed

I had some furs tanned and the skin side is not as supple as I would like. Is there a way that I can shave it or something to give me a more smoother skin side. Right now it looks like a towel on the skin side. Any help would be great.
