What can you do about razor bumps in the bikini area? What are the tips for preventing them in the first place

Answer 1

they have this cream at drug stores called Bikini Zone... it helps alot with the bumps

Answer 2

The key is not shaving AGAINST hair growth, but rather WITH hair growth. So, you should be shaving down, not up. I realize that shaving up gives you a closer shave, but that is also what causes the nasty bumps to begin with. I would also have to agree with the person above who recommended a warm bath prior to shaving to soften the hair. They do make some really nice razors that are about 1/2 the size of regular razors that are easier to maneuver in the bikini area. I think Noxema is the brand that I've seen. It is a 3-pack. You should have much success with these tips!

Answer 3

To prevent them use nair on the bikini line for about 5-8 minutes. If you already have them from shaving, use a little deodorant or vitamin E capsules. Good luck.

Answer 4

The best thing I have found is to take a warm bath and then the hair is softed and it doesn't pull the skin as much which is what causes the bumps.

Answer 5

Try using a really gentle exfoliator before you shave, and use shave gel made for sensitive skin- I like Aveeno. For when you already have them, use a hydrocortisone cream like Cortaid.

Answer 6

use a brand new razor. mens razors work the best. like the quattro razor. and shaving cream. also i heard veet works really well.

Answer 7

Next time get a bikini wax (Painful) or use a hair removal product.

Answer 8

hey, instead of doing it with a razor put on nair it works for me perfectly

Answer 9

Don't shave, use wax instead. If you do shave, shave with the hair, and not against it. Good luck.

Answer 10

the easyest way is try not 2 apply to much pressure when your shaving.
