How do you keep from getting razor bumps when you shave down below?

[Anonymous]

I feel like no matter what I do I always end up with a few razor bumps and I hate it! I feel like if a guy sees my lady business he will be completely weirded out. Any good suggestions?

Well, I loooked it up on google. Its says Step 1: Apply a shaving gel to the pubic area before shaving, instead of using shaving cream. Shaving cream can clog the skin's pores, which can increase the likelihood of bumps. Step 2: Inspect your razor to make sure that it is clean and sharp. If in doubt, discard the razor and get a fresh one. Lastly, Step 3: Shave in the direction of the hair growth, rather than shaving "against the grain." This will help keep the hair from being pushed back into the skin, which causes inflamed bumps. Hope this helps girl. :)

I take cold showers for health reasons. I've noticed that if I shave after being in warm water, I usually and up with the bumps. If I shave after being in cold water I never get them. I think it has to do with the texture of your skin. Your skin gets soft when warm and harder/stronger when cold.

I don't know I get them most times, I shave under water when I'm hAving a bath and put moisturiser on after but i still get it most times , I've got a really nice new shaver so mAybe that will help:)

Ugh it's so frustrating!!! I thought about waxing but I heard that hurts so bad!

[Blondiee2014]

Fuck that I'm not waxing haha, I'm happy shaving I only need to do it once every 2 weeks anyway:p

Haha lucky you! I hate the hair but I hate the "stubble" even more!!

Try doing it in the bath it's not so bad :)
Because I'm a guy I think it looks nicer when It grows back a little:)

[Asker]

best option is to go with the grain
