My bestfriend has bad razor bumps how can u get rid of them u reckon?

Answer 1

Use a better razor. Try one of those little trimmers like they use on neck hair - they don't cut quite as close to the skin, so there is less irritation. You have to shave more often but it's worth it.

Answer 2

Razor bumps are caused by the follicles being inflamed. Follicles are pores. If they are not painful, the best thing she can do is use a mild exfoliation cream or scrub such as St. Ives or something. If they are painful, she should take an aspirin or an advil to calm the swelling of the skin and then try the exfoliation tomorrow.

Switch razors. Don't use the single blade cheapies. Invest in a good razor that has at least two blades such as Venus, They're more expensive but the blade is made better.

She can also use some aloe vera gel on her legs asap to soothe the irritation.

Answer 3

Okey

Razor bumps? I reckon thats like razor burn.. and that stuff sucks.
Use 1% hydrocortisone cream to the area after you shave. this will help remove redness sting, and irritation.
DON'T USE HYRDROCORTISONE DAILY because your skin will get addicted to it, and when you stop you will have bad breakouts.

Lubricate skin after you shave, A moisturizing body lotion will help reduce dryness and itchiness after shaving

Shave after you bathe!! Next time you shave, give irritated skin a break by making sure that it's well-hydrated before you graze a razor over it.

Don't use Soap! Use shaving cream! Put it on and let it sit for awhile it will help soften the hair.

Shave hair in the direction that it grows--in a downward motion

If you know that you're prone to razor bumps, consider using a lotion depilatory, which dissolves hair.

As a long-term treatment, topical acne preparations containing 2.5 or 5 percent benzoyl peroxide can help minimize razor bumps and lessen the chance that they will return

You get a close shave with double-edge razors and disposables--so close that they can really irritate your skin and traumatize hair follicles.. and if it's to dull it can be like a Rake going over the skin
toss a disposable razor and break out a new one after three or four uses or replace the blade after three or four uses in a nondisposable handle.

Answer 4

bad razors an shaving in the wrong direction can cause the bumps and razor burn. they can also be causd by the temperature of the water! use cooler water to avoid the bumps. also, along with using a shaving cream with ALOE, try rubbing in some lotion on the to-be-shaved area before shaving.make sure thee area about ot be shaved is exposed to warm water, or hot steam for at least 2 minutes before shaving. this helps open up follicles and make the skin easier to glid along. when shaving, however, use cooler water. these things help!

Answer 5

Exfoliate && moisturize.

First take a wet towel and wrap your legs (or wherever the bumps are) for about 10 minutes (make sure it's warm).

Then apply some moisturizing lotion.

Soon the bumps should be gone.

Answer 6

razor bumps can be caused by shaving against the direction of hair growth or by a dirty razor.
