How do you shave without razor bumps?

Answer 1

1. Examine your shaving method.

If you use a creme to remove or use a manual razor, the removal method matters. Shaving upwards with the latter pulls the follicle upwards as well leaving the newly shaved hair with a sharp angle and below the epidermis: surely an ingrown hair waiting to happen.

2. Shave with the grain, meaning in the direction that the hair grows.

This is usually in a downward direction, although you should whip out a magnifying glass to be certain.

3. Prevent by exfoliating to remove the dead skin cells. Hair has to be trained, or teased to grow properly and exfoliating will aid in that growth. To stop ingrowns the key is prevention.

Because does not grow there.
But on the other parts with hair, try shaving down instead of against the grain!
