Shaving

[Vance2335]

Ok for the women who might read this. If you shave your pubic area how often do you shave and how do you not get razor burn? My wife has in the past and always gets razor burn and wants to try again so I am trying to find a good way for her to shave and not have any razor burn. At the present time she only trims.

I use a hair remover cream instead of shaving. I can't stand the stubble and razor bumps, so I have been using "Veet" for years. If you decide to try it, you have to be careful because it can cause irritation if left on too long, or put on the real sensitive areas.

oops, sorry. I meant to address my above comment to you as you asked the question.

Warm water and shower gel works too. I don't shave every day. Also, I use a disposable razor and I never get razor burns or cuts. The newer the razor, the more sharp / painful in my opinion.

Hey Vance
I think the best way is to do it in the shower
with lots of warm water and soap... : )

If one doesn't shave on a regular basis, it's best to start out with an electric razor to get the bulk of the hair away. with some of those razors, you can get a really close cut that is very attractive also. you can see through the hair to the skin, I mean. The electric one also works well for further down. That's $5, please!

The very best answer that you need is the last one before me. BIKINI ZONE it is!!! It's mostly the same ingredient as Benadryl and it works like magic. i have not tried the other but am glad to know about it.

I shave every couple days and use bikini zone to help with any razor burn. There is also this stuff called coochie cream that you can get from naughty parties and that works pretty well too.

I shave every two-three days, (like no hair on my body) with a good razor. Do not use a cheap one. Afterward, apply lotion or "bikini zone" gives the area a nice cool smooth feeling and is made just for shaving down there.

This obviously isn't the overnight soultion but I had laser hair removal done.  It costs a few hundred dollars but it is soooooooo worth it.  I'll never have to shave again.  No razor burn.  No dealing with accidental cuts.  It's all gone except a few sporadic hairs (that you can just pull out when they come in.)  And DF loves it :)  No prickly hairs anywhere.

How bad did the laser hair removal hurt?

[BabyHardiman]

I use conditioner too.  I also shave downward instead of upwards.  I used to shave compleely bald, and still do every now and then, but I prefer to leave some hair so that I do not get razor burn.  I have extemely sensitive skin.  When I do shave bald it's usually during the summer when I use the tanning bed - the tanning bed dries up the burn quickly.  :)

Thanks for the advise all. I think when she does it again I will try to do it for her.
It looks like all the advise is basically the same. So it must be the right advice.

[Lonelymom]

every three to four days with me as well. That is usually when it gets irratating and itchy from hair growing back.

Tell her to use shaving cream and a good razor. None of them cheap ones. Also use lotion afterwards.

I use conditioner to shave.  It seems to soften the hairs.  Plus, I don't shave every day but I don't let the hair get too long either.  It seems when you shave every day it causes razor burn and when you wait for a long time, your skin is more sensitive.  So I shave every 3 days as well.  

[krushing]

Well, I shave every couple to 3 days...I don't like stuble.  Usually with a good shaving cream and not getting in a hurry, the razor burn is limited to none at all.  I also take lotion and apply afterwards...ON THE OUTSIDE ONLY to make it more silky smooth.
