TMI: Shaving down there

roshybride

Ok, so usually I'm just a keep it trim type girl, but last night my trimmer was dead, so I though I'd just shave. Now I have all these itchy red bumps, which I think is razor burn.  And it is driving me crazy. I didn't go completely bare.

Those of you who shave, what do you do to prevent the razor burn?  Any tips?

It won't happen every time.  Just the first time, or if you wait a long time in between.  You're making me itchy!  GL!

Coochy Cream shaving lotion is the best..no red bumps, no ingrown hairs, no razor burn. Named appropriately but I won't use anything else when I shave.

I've only had issues with razor burn in the bikini line area, so I shave in the same direction as the hair growth to prevent bumps.

Where do you get that?

This is not true for me. I am not meant to be bare - it just doesn't work out.

Contact a Pure Romance Consultant. They sell it. I can vouch it works really good.

You can use some cortisone cream to relieve the itching for a day or so. I can't shave anymore, the itching is beyond anything I can handle. I strictly wax.

I'm considering wax, but that scares me.

I'm actually a waxer, as in that's my job. The first time is always the worst but it slowly gets easier. Even if you just do the bikini line and trim the rest. The key is to find a reputable place and not just some random nail salon.

I wax only....the first time is pretty painful but go every 3-4 weeks and its WELL worth it!!!!!

I give a third vote for Coochy cream. I won't shave without it.

Bikini Zone cream works well too, you can get it at walmart and its pretty cheap.
