take a loofah and scrub the area to be shaved more coarsely than you would if it were soapy and you were just washing your body. the scrubbing will prevent as many ingrown hairs, and will also allow the area to be smoother longer, because you're scrubbing away dead skin, and shaving at the new skin level. it might not sound like that big of a difference, but we're talking like 2 bonus days here, depending on how fast your hair grows.

The only true way to prevent razor bumps is to not shave too often. Here is a site that offers home made treatments to soothe the bumps if you already have razor bumps irritation.

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM
But one week when I was out of town with my girl friend, I forgot my razor and I had to use a one blade disposable, and I took it really slow around my neck area. I noticed that i didn't get razor bumps and ever since then I have been using one bladed disposables and all the razor rash and pimples are gone.

I used to have that problem but then i started shaving with shaving cream and warm water..then right afterwards i would put some aloe lotion on, and it really takes away that sting and prevents the bumps

I have always used talcum powder. i have very sensitive skin as well and if you keep a pretty new razor all the time and moisturize (with non-purfume) lotions I am okay. Hope this helps!
