Shaving pubic hair?
18/f.
I would like to be able to shave all my pubic hair, as I just feel more comortable with my body that way and prefer the look/feel of it.
However, whenever I try it leaves stubble, a shaving rash and becomes incredibly itchy and a little painful. I know that others shave their pubic hair and don't have these problems, so there must be a way round it.
As much as waxing sounds like it would leave a better effect, it's just too painful, and I don't have the money to pay to get it done (I can't make myself do it, because I do one strip and then chicken out due to the pain.)
So what can I do to get a good result with shaving, and avoid shaving rash? I would really appreciate any tips.

Take a warm shower to help soften up the skin. Do not use regular soap there before you shave because soap dries the skin out. Then lather some pre-shave cream on your pubic region and use a brand new razor (if you're using disposable ones) to start shaving., Shave with the grain of the hair.
Also, keep this in mind, too, if you're feeling a little self conscious about the bumps you've been getting: guys don't care about that. So don't stress over the bumps as far as the aesthetics of it go. The only issue really is more for you if you get ingrown hairs or some other form of irritation.

Shaving is best when done in the shower. Make sure you use a new razor and don't use it again for any other part of your body. After you're done washing your hair and everything else, soap up the area to be shaved. Put on the shaving cream and carefully shave the area. If you've just recently shaved, wait a few days for the bumps and rash to go down. I hope this helps and good luck.

I have the same problem , but mine is more on the sides.. what I consider doing is if you don't want waxing and you don't want any razor cuts burns and stubble which really sucks I hear you.. well then you should consider using NAIR or VEET it comes in a cream you leave on for a bit and wash off and apparently it washes off all the hairs.. my friend said it works! it might work!? also, with shaving you might want to use really warm water first to get the hairs relaxed and after do the shaving and work your time in
Good luck!
