When i shve down there i get red bumps that seem to be ingrown hairs?

so i try to shave down there and every time i do i get red bumps the whole area the next day. ive tried lotion prior to shaving and then after. ive caked lotion on before and it doesn't help. yeah my razors are clean and new. is there anyway to prevent them or get rid of the bumps and ingrown hairs?



I used to have the same problem too, but there is a gel out there (im sorry i dont remember the name of it), but if you go down the isle where the shaving cream is im sure you will find it. It's specifically for the bikini area and it does wonders, and its not expensive.




try this, wait a week or so let it grow out and let your skin calm down down there. then either shower or take a bath for at least ten minutes to let your pores completely open up. then with a brand new razor take the hand your not using to shave and pull up on your skin in betweenn your pubes and your belly button so it stretches then start on the sides right at the top going diagonally outwards and straight up in the middle don't press hard and work your way down. when you get down to where your vagina really is shave up first the outwards to get the rest of the hairs and thenvoilaa!




This probably sounds weird but after your done shaving put some deodorant on everywhere you shaved and you shouldn't get bump. I'm not sure why it works but it does. Just do it after everytime you shave and after showers and stuff. Try to use a moisturizing deodorant like dove or something.




yep. shave correctly. it should always be damp and soaked with warm water to open the pores. USE SHAVING CREAM. then GENTLY shave against the grain. DONT PRESS. if you miss hairs, well heheh dont go over it again as it will cause irritation. eventually youll get the hang of it. lol




Have you tried using shaving cream that is specifically made for minimizing shave bumps for the bikini area? I think that lotion doesn't work because it's to moisturize the skin it has nothing to do with the ingrown hair.




omg i have that TOO!! i have found its the under wear that i wear sometimes irritates it but also i cut myself so yeah











omg im so glad i thought that i was retarted or something
