Shaving... And ingrown hairs? Ouch what?

[iLoveCookies]

So, about 75% of the time when I shave my vag, i get many ingrown hairs or itchy. Or both. Is there some way to avoid this problem? I know I can't be the only one... Lotion? Tried it. Should I use a different razor? Any tips are appreciated:) thanks.

Instead of using a razor use an electric shaver, It's what I use and it works. Trust me I got so many ingrown hairs and rashes then I got an electric shaver and the problem is gone.

You could try waxing. Get one of those home waxing kits. It hurts a little. But totally worth it. :p
Haha!

My mom got me a wet dry shaver and it works so nice. I can use it in the shower

Well, wouldn't it be a little weird asking my mom for an electric shaver?

Why all moms know we shave our legs and now they know we shave more. It cant hurt to just ask what will you hear it will be a yes or a no

yeah I was going mention waxing... or maybe a better quality razor

If you ONLY have a razor and you can't get anything else try, Butting baby powder on your vagina area before you start anything. You can trim the hairs over the toilet so that shaving it alot easier. If your dad has a electric shaver try using it when nobody's home and remember not to leave your pubes in it.

Another way is buying wax. You could tell your mum that you want to try waxing your legs and just wax your vagina insted.

I have never had a problem with ingrown hairs and I use a razor but a friend of mine has had them until she got a electric razor and that stopped them

try not to let it grow so long between shaves

[Oxymoron]

I was just wondering. Do any of you not shave at all?

[ashley34]

I don't shave my down there at all so I don't have to worry about ingrown hairs and whatnot

if you rub on a stick-type deodorant it will reduce the itching thats what i do!
