Are you using shaving cream? The skin there is very sensitive. Try using some essential oils like lavender mix with water after you shave as a toner. The lavender will cool the skin. If you get ingrown hairs, exfoliate the day after you shave. This should help.I also have heard cold water helps after you shave....good luck

In my experience 3 blades work better then 1 or 2. You may want to consider using a shaving gel. Another alternative might be switching to an electric shaver. I have a friend who raves about the Seiko Cleancut Shaver for shaving the netherregions.

Its not good to shave down there with a razor it'll only lead to bumps and irritation. Try waxing or trimming as alternatives.

i had the same problem and i also used disposable. i changed razors and that worked for a while then i just changed soap and that worked for a while then i figured that it just works best with a brand new disposable for me with shaving cream.

There are special shaving creams for shaving "down there". They are supposed to prevent razor burn etc.

Plucking (tweezing), Shaving, Depilatory creams and Waxing are temporary hair removal methods.
Waxing usually lasts for 3 weeks, but it is painful.

You obviously have sensitive skin, so the best thing by far is to let it be natural. Waxing will be hellish! There's nothing wrong with a nice bush as long as you bathe regularly.

I use the venus razor and I don't have that problem. You might want to try that.

WAX WOULD BE OK BRAZILIAN WAX WOULD BE BETTER BUT IF YOU HAVE TO USE RAZORS THEN MAKE SURE TO USE A NICE SHAVING CREAM TO COVER THE AREA BEFORE YOU DO IT, EDGE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN FOR MEN WOULD DO A GREAT JOB!!!

I've concluded a small electric shaver is better (the ones the size of a pen). It's safer, and no ingrowns!
