Question

It's not herpies or pimples i know that for a fact......so i don't know what the hell it could be.....they hurt when i press on them too!!!! Is there anyway i can prevent them?????

Answer 1

Its razor burn, and ingrown hairs most likely.. If you go to www.slumberpartiesbytammy.com and buy this stuff called Coochy.. it is under the "RELAX TO THE MAX" sub title in the SHOP ONLINE section and it will help with that. It conditions the hair or something... I dont know how.. but it works. You can use it on ur under arms, legs, and vagina.. you put it on 10-15 mintues before you are going to shave... it helps it all go away. Trust me, I use it....

Answer 2

It's razor burn. See the link below.

Razor burn is an irritation of the skin caused by shaving with a razor. It appears as a mild rash and usually disappears after a few hours to a few days, depending on severity. In severe cases, razor burn can also be accompanied by razor bumps, where the area around shaved hairs get raised red welts or infected pustules.

Razor burn is a common problem, especially among those who shave coarse hairs on areas with sensitive skin (including the bikini line, underarms, chest, and beard).

The condition can be caused by:

* shaving too closely
* shaving with a blunt blade
* dry shaving
* applying too much pressure when shaving
* shaving too fast
* shaving too roughly

Ways to prevent razor burn include:

* keeping the face moist using a shaving brush and lather
* using a moisturising shaving gel
* shaving in the direction of the hair growth
* resisting the urge to shave too closely
* applying minimal pressure
* avoiding scratching or irritation after shaving
* avoiding irritating products on the shaved area (colognes, perfumes, etc.)
* using an after-shave cream with aloe vera or other emollients
* use a disposable razor cleaning tool to lower bacteria present on the razor head
* use a product like Razor Gator to clean the razor prior to shaving.

Ways to heal razor burn include:

* applying witch hazel
* applying mild salicylic acid solutions
* applying aloe vera gel
* applying water

Answer 3

It's razor burn, it's when the curly hair starts to grow back and grows into the skin and causes irritation and red bumps. If you use a lot of shaving cream it shouldnt happen. Also, try using the intuition razor, it seems to work well and doesn't cause razor burn.

Answer 4

Use hair removal cream instead, it's much better.
