All of the above verbs require a reflexive pronoun when they indicate that the subject is doing something to itself. But they can also be used non-reflexively, indicating that the action of the verb is directed at someone or something else.

En comparaison…

Je me réveille à 6h00. vs Je la réveille à 6h00.
I wake up at 6am. I wake her up at 6am.
Il se rase le menton. vs Il rase le menton de son fils.
He’s shaving his (own) chin. He’s shaving his son’s chin.

When talking about parts of the body, the reflexive pronoun and a definite article indicate the owner of that part of the body, rather than the possessive adjective that is used in English.

Par exemple…

Je me lave le visage. Je lave mon visage.
I’m washing my face.
Il se brosse les cheveux. Il brosse ses cheveux.
He’s brushing his hair.
