    Take a hot shower or bath and let the steam seep into your pores and hair follicles for about 10 minutes. If your bumps are really bad, try using a new razor each time and use a shave gel and GO SLOW...

    good luck!

    well I'm a guy, so i don't shave legs or anything like that, but i find i get alot less irritation and bumps if i shave under a stream of water (just water) in the shower, it just leaves things alot smoother and neater. hope this helps!

    I know you can go to the drug store or pharmacy and get some products for "ingrown" hair after shaving. My esthetician also told me deodarant is the quick fix version of that also.

    try using an alovera gel. apply it and leave it for 5 minutes before you shave.

    i have the plant,so i just take the gel from the leaf
