Pubic hair question... I shaved my pubic hair yesterday but red bumps appeared... How can I improve this situation?

Hello all GaG users I have a problem that bothers with me extremely much. Yesterday, I shaved with my pubic hair completely, it was looking super smooth and as soft as cotton. Normally I used my aftercare cream after the shaving hair and everything was going normally but today, small red bumps and a little itching appeared. I am thinking about ingrown hair after the shaving. Actually they don't look very bad, small bumps are small but I am afraid my boyfriend makes a problem during the sex (I have a boyfriend and we have periodical sex life) so I need to get rid of them quickly... Does he really create a problem about them? Guys and girls what do you think about this situation? Most of my friends suggested using Bepanthen cream to improve them quickly but I am scared about them... Can I pick up to ingrown hairs with tweezers or get it waxed again? How can I get rid of small red bumps quickly? All of infos are very important for me... Thanks for all suggestions...

  • IF you get an ingrown hair, trust me the bump will get really big and hurts like hell. You most likely have razor burns which is a mild irritation of the skin. He is your boyfriend, he will understand and he won't make a fuss about it. It is going to be okay.
    But you should try and just trim from now on. It actually looks sexier.

  • Nah, it's not as bad as you think. I don't know, some times I even like the rough feel when I'm kissing a girl there. As others said, this is called razor bumps. I think it's better to wax if you want complete removal. Else, a trimmed vagina is also great looking.

  • Waxing is the best thing I've come across when it comes to the vagina
    Omg why did I ever shave its the worst thing ever.. So ye basically don't touch it its just annoyed provably by your shaving razor or something.

    • I also get it waxed but yesterday I've shaved it hurriedly because I met with my boyfriend... Besides, I don't shave only my pubic area, I shaved my underarms with razor quickly but there's no symptom seen in there. I had no time, that's why I went to shave my pubic hair...

    • I used to get red also when I did it quickly

    • Unfortunately yes, but it doesn't occur whenever I get it waxed... Can you write me inbox? I ask something privately, I don't write here.

  • I don't know how to make them go away but I do now another way to stop them from coming. Use clean and clear facial cleaner, it opens up the pores to let the ingrown come out.

    • hmmm thank you so much honey... I will try it. But I have already used an aftercare cream...

  • I know it sounds weird but it's proven that after you have shaven use liquid hand soap to rub over the area and rinse because it helps with the irritation.

    • I used some aftercare creams like Bepanthen etc. and I rinsed with hand soap and foam but someone claims that it occurred owing to water contact directly. Masters doesn't suggest that people rinse the area with water soon after shaving.

    • It's just what it said in my book of tips, I've found that it helped with me... I guess everyone has different reactions to certain things

    • hmmm thanks but look at you inbox. I need browsed help...

  • Razor burn, it sounds like.

    Wax that shit next time.

    • Actually, I get it waxed but now I went to shave it... Therefore red bumps occurred but lots of the people try to shave hair...

  • Don't shave. Keep a nice triangle. It's much hotter.

  • You're find when ever I would shave my pubes I would get red bumps and itching too that is normal your boyfriend won't care about this promise.

  • shave in the shower with hot water and shave gel with a new razor

  • I have the same thing when I shave mine off sometimes. I try using soap and water and just washing everything down real good when I'm done

    • hmmm yeah thank you :) but someone says that I don't rinse and wash the pubic area soon after shaving.

    • Well the first time I shaved I didn't use soap and I gotta lot of bumps every time after that I did and it hasn't been nearly as bad. Super hot when a girl shaves though! Do girls like it when guys do?

  • Stop shaving, bald kitties are gross... almost as gross as the bumps created by shaving that closely resemble some form of an STD...

  • just leave it natural.

  • Use shaving gel
