How do I get rid of razor bumps and ingrown hairs on face?
My incredibly handsome, intelligent, and personable son has been shaving for the past three years. During this time, he has always had unattractive razor bumps which covered his neck and chin. These bumps have caused him to be less outgoing, and I think it is affecting him socially. We've tried many different products and razors, but the problem remains. Please help!

How often does he shave?
the more often he shaves, the more his face and neck will get used to having an incredibly sharp instrument drawn across it.
Are these bumps ingrown hairs, infected cuts, or just irritation?
Ingrown hairs need to be removed as soon as he sees them, obviously. infected cuts can be taken care of by shaving and immediately washing his face with antibacterial soap and water. irritation is a little harder to deal with because it could be caused by a number of things, but main cures are moisturizing lotions and Aloe Vera lotions.
Lastly, how curly is his hair?
the curlier his hair the likely he is to get ingrown hairs, and the harder they'll be to remove. basically, with curly hair, when he shaves the hair entirely off, when it grows back, it curls right back into the skin. recommend not shaving it all off, just down to about a fraction of an inch. that way, its already out of the skin and cant grow back into it.
Hope this helps, God Bless
