How Do You Shave The Pubic Area Without Razor Bumps?
Razor bumps, also known as pseudofolliculitis barbae, are ingrown hairs that can occur after shaving. When pubic hair is cut at an angle, the hair can curl backward and puncture the skin. The skin then forms a red bump that swells. Trim long pubic hair with scissors. If the hair is too long, it will clog up your razor, making it harder to shave. Trim off as much as you can before shaving. Wet the pubic area with warm water before shaving. This can be done if you shave in the shower, or you can use a wash cloth. The warm water will soften your hair, making it less likely for razor bumps to appear. Apply shaving cream to the pubic area. Leave the shaving cream on for a couple of minutes before attempting to shave. Shave with the grain, meaning in the same direction as the hair growth. Go over each area only once. After each stroke, tap your razor against the sink to keep the hair from clogging the razor. Once finished, dry the area completely with a towel.
