I went to the beach yesterday and you could see some of my pube hairs sticking out of my bathing suit bottoms. GROSS! I want that hair gone (not the whole thing) and I'm afraid if I shave my bikini line I'll get red bumps and it will hurt. I heard Nair is worse. And waxing hurts!!! So what's the best way to get rid of the hair on my bikini line, shaving, Nair, or something else? (NOT WAXING IT.)

-There is shaving cream out there for sensitive skin and some for bikini lines. Both should work well.
-You can try trimming the hair you are planning to shave, so less hair gets caught up in the razor causing irritations.
-Safely use a little conditioner on some of the hair to soften it up a bit first. Then wash it off.
-Shave slowly in the direction the hair is growing.
-Use a fresh razor your first time shaving down there.
-If you want, you can use a mirror to make sure you get all the areas you want, and to be safer, too.
-Wear lose underwear afterwards or underwear that doesn't rub or is too tight on your bikini line, to let the skin calm down a bit.
