Let your bush grow! grow! grow! Walk along with your hair sprouting from your bikini with pride! Many people will secretly admire you for going green and replacing the dwindling rainforests with a forest of your own!

This probs means you have quite coarse hair which is a pain because you can't eally get round the itchy horrible rash.
I would say to defininately pluck up the courage to get it waxed, there really is nothing to be embarrased about because the beauticians do it every day and it's just a job to them, besides you can leave you knickers on!
If you really can't facew the salon invest in a decent bikini line trimmer and some immac. You wont get rashy that way!

bikini waxes can be embarrassin and painful depending on the style u go 4! i find if i use a fresh, or at least real sharp razor and shave real slow and gentle 1st. then use 'nads' range of regrowth and rash/ingrowing hair calming creams. the next day isn't so itchy and i can leave it a day b4 shavin again. that way the skin isn't irritated so often and stays smooth and not so itchy!

What works for one person's skin/hair won't necessarily work for you. Go see a dermatologist. A female dermatologist. They are likely to be up on all the latest, greatest techniques, regimens, and treatments for different kinds of hair removal. And, most importantly, they can recommend something specifically for your skin and hair type. The bikini line is such a delicate area. Avoid trial and error. You want to look hot in that bikini right? Consult an expert.

As a man with sensitive skin, I would answer to use a moisturizing after shave. Nivea makes a line of sensitive and extra sensitive products. Remember you're tearing little holes in your body when anybody shaves. The purpose of a moisturizing aftershave is to disinfect the tears, shrink the holes made, then moisturize those holes after they're made.

I use chi or biosilk silk therapy when I shave. It is usually used to protect your hair during thermal processes but it also works as a great shaving protectant. You can purchase it at a local salon. I get mine from Regis at the mall and I think JCPenney sells it as well. You also want to make sure that you exfoliate your bikini area before you shave so you can prevent ingrowns.

I suggest a bikini hair removing cream. These really work and no rash!! You get a little spalula to put it on with and its not shameful as you dont have to go to a salon.

I have used a product called Skincalm which is amazing to soothe irritation i apply it straight after doing my bikini line and it stops the irritation from occurring.
You should be able to get Skincalm from any chemist.

I used to have the same problem i waxed few times and gone back to shaving it's normal now. Because the hair grew back much finer.
