Shaving Dilemma


Question Posted Sunday July 11 2004, 5:46 pm

I took your advice on shaving my pubic hair...I used conditioner. And it did work, I don't have quite as many razor bumps. But... I'm so itchy and it feels so weird. I don't even know if I got all of the hair. I'm afraid that I'm going to get real irritated. What should I put on there? I might just grow the hair back, how long do you think it will take?

It's going to be real itchy, especially since you first started. I'm assuming this is your first time. Well, Just use lotion every day, maybe a couple times a day, maybe try some baby oil also. And continue to use conditioner every day to keep the skin and hair soft. Even if it doesn't look like there's any hair growing up yet, still use conditioner because once it does start to grow back it will keep the hair much softer. I'm not sure how long it will take, but if you just let it grow back then it will probably stop being irritated once the hair is a little less than eyebrow length, maybe sooner. If you decide to still shave, then you might want to wait until it stops being as irritated anyway. It will probably still be itchy for the first three or four times you shave, but after that it should get better. Your skin will get used to you doing it and wont hurt or itch.

And just to let you know, I don't shave everything. I tried it a few times but never did it enough to get to the part where it didn't itch and hurt. I don't know if this is too graphic to tell you, but what I do is shave the lower area, mostly just around the lips and on the sides near my bikini area. I've found that those spots don't get nearly as sensitive. It didn't take long at all to get used to it.

Good luck on the whole thing.
