sorry, didn't know what category to put this in. i get really bad razor burn/ bikini bumps. i get razor burn on my legs too but they go away and the ones on my bikini area don't! i use shaving cream and a fresh razor blade (venus) and i put on lotion and neolsporen (sp?) when i'm done but its still not going away! so my question is:
a) how can i make it go away now
b) how can i prevent it in the future
c) will waxing or somehting else help... or hurt?

C:NO!!!! waxing is painful.
Melanie4981 answered Monday February 7 2005, 3:41 am: I would personally reccomend waxing.
It's hurts for the 30 seconds that it takes to pull the wax strip off but you don't get razor burn or itchy re-growth!!
Another thing you could try is depilatory cream - we have Immac and Nair over here in the UK - not sure what the brand names are over there but if you just ask for hair removal cream at the drugstore then they'll be able to pooint you in the right direction.
If you do decide to go for the cream option then but the sensitive one and do a patch test and leave it for 24 hours as it uses quite strong chemicals and if you have sensitive skin you don't wanna smother yourself in it only to find you have an allergic reaction!!!

a.)go to cvs or anyrugtore and buy the stuff that heps sooth the irritation-it really works go to the counter to ask for it
b.)instead of shaving u defintly should wax bcuz shaving "downthere" is sensitive skin n it gets irritated fast so yes wax [ cAndiishOp2369's advice column | Ask cAndiishOp2369 A Question ]
incubus4004 answered Sunday February 6 2005, 11:18 pm: a) they have cream that you can buy but i know it would be like embarassing to go into a store and buy stuff like that especially if youre with your mom or something.
b) dont shave as often, let it grow back a little so you dont cause more razor burn
c) waxing would probably be the best idea. it might hurt a little but it lasts longer and prevents razor burn.
