The only way to completely prevent razor bumps would be not to shave.

If you do shave then avoid shaving too often, this increases irritation and skin damage that leads to razor rash. When you shave be sure to use a clean shapr razor - you may find some brands work better than others, Gillete also make pro-sensitive razors with multiple blades to prevent excess pressure when shaving which make make razor rash worse. When shaving go with the grain of the hair rather than against it and always shave wet when using manual razors. Using good lubricant to help the razor glide over the skin easier is important too, rather than shaving foam or gel try oils or hair conditioner which tend to be slippier so work better to reduce friction.

Before shaving always exfoliate with exfoliating gloves or a body scrub to help get rid of old skin and help prevent ingrown hairs, and after shaving use a good lotion.

All you need to do is not to shave on dry skin. Always shave when you are in the shower or you have just come out the shower when your legs are wet.

Why do I get bumps on my beard?

its just part of the texturing. unless you have REALLY big bumps, in which case you have a glitch. Some people are prone to razor bumps more than others due to their hair type. Generally African American men suffer the most from razor bumps in general to the texture of their hair. Curly haired people suffer more from razor bumps due to the fact that once the hair starts to grow back, the angle that the hair grows from the skin causes the hair to curl or bend back toward the hair shaft causing ingrown hairs and razor bumps. The best way to avoid this is to use a fine scrub before and after shaves, and to keep the skin hydrated and clean. Target carrys a wonderful line called Everyman Jack that is ideal for razor bump prone skin. Some men use a T-Edger and get a close shave avoiding razors all together. Most black men wouldn't touch an electric razor.
