Razor bumps?


Question Posted Wednesday June 27 2018, 12:41 am

So when I shave my armpits i get these little red, itchy bumps and I have no idea how to get rid of them! I'm new to shaving and have pretty much no experience and none of my friends have the same problem. Is it something that I'm doing wrong or do I just have sensitive skin. To go more into depth here is my shaving routine
-shaving is the last thing I do in the shower
-I put conditioner on the area I'm going to shave
- I press lightly on the razor in downward strokes up to 3 times to make sure I get all the hair.
-after I get out of the shower I usually put lotion/ cream on.
- put on pj's and then go to sleep.

What you’re experiencing is called razor burn. Skin conditioner does not protect against razor burn; you need to use a shaving cream and press lightly. If your arm is stretch out and the pit skin is tight you should only have to make one or two passes. The less you pass a razor over and area the less likely you will experience razor burn.
