fresh razor, shaving cream, shave with the grain, then use an after shave lotion on it. Yes, dad's after shave. There's a reason other than smell that men use aftershave (not cologne) - it treats those pores after shaving. If you don't like the smell of dad's - go to the drug store and buy one called Florida Water, it's cheap and has a more neutral smell.
An alternative, you can get a very close and smooth cut with a beard trimmer. Beard trimmers are pretty cheap at the drug store.

I had the red bumps before but they didn't hurt and they went away after a little while. I suggest getting a new razor with a sharp blade, and don't shave dry. Put some mosturizing lotion on after you shave. Hope this works!

Be sure you shave in the direction the hair grows not against it. The skin down there is just very delicate so getting bumps is more common. Try a depilatory that's intended for use down there.

hm I use to shave the corners and get those annoying bumps.. but I don't think there is really anything you can do about it other than to wax.. or maybe nair. I do nair and It does work but doesn't hurt at all and it didn't leave any bumps for me
good luck!!

Try waxing, I've waxed for 20 plus years and no bumps. I've tried shaving, Nair and Neet they all made bumps.

Try using shaving cream and avoid dry shaving. If you are very brave, try to wax instead of shave. It hurts, but is an excellent hair removal system!

shave in the direction of hair grow. it will reduce razor burn & those little red bumps.
also make sure you never dry shave. always use soap/shaving cream & water.

Use a hair removal cream. It's not irritant and not painful at all. It acts fast and results last quite a long time. This one is great http://www.revitol.com/hair-removal-cream/?aid=944079
