How do you get rid of shaving red bumps?

Answer 1

Well I forgot to shave with water (stupid i know) anyways they were red and felt dry, itchy, and had a constant stinging sensation. First use neosporin and rub over the red dots. Moisturize alot. With globs of lotion!! Over and over. Do this at least 5 times. The legs will hydrate well. Leave over night. This lasts about one to two days. And don't worry I know what I'm doing. I am dealing with it now. Good luck and heal soon!! ( i hope i heal soon too!)

ok after you shave whatever you are shaving take a shower or if you are shaving in the shower take a loofa pad squirt some soap on it and scrub it on there as fast as you can it will remove shaving bumps then put loision on when you are done

Answer 3

• Shave only on moist skin - never run the razor on dry skin as a quick fix. This is especially important for your armpits, which you may be tempted to shave quickly before running out the door in a sleeveless dress or shirt.
• After shaving your armpits, delay applying deodorant or antiperspirant for at least 20 minutes. Your sensitive, freshly shaved skin needs time to calm and heal.
• Always use clean, sharp blades.
• Avoid disposable razors, as these can often cause nicks, bumps, and burns.
• Shave in the shower after fully lathering skin.
• If you prefer to shave out of the shower, use a top-quality shaving cream before you put the blade onto your skin, then rinse thoroughly afterward.
• Always apply a moisturizing lotion after you shave.

I am assuming that you mean on your face, as you might also shave other parts of your body? Firstly if you dry shave (use an electric razor) you might try wet shaving (using a shaving gel or cream). Try to be gentle, don't scrape vigorously with your razor. Skin is always particularly sensitive for a boy when he first begins to shave so the condition may improve anyway. Try shaving regularly, as there is less to shave off if you do it every day than if you allow hair to grow for two or three days between shaving. Rinse off your face after shaving and then splash your face with cold water to help close your pores. Avoid using an aftershave as this may also cause redness.

because the micro organisms under the human skin become agitated and try to break free through the skin. for an experiment you should try shaving way too much and then the organisms actually come out and they look like miniture worms! i havnt tried it but someone did it as an experiment once at my university...one two three four and nuggets!

new razor blade just don't shave there... After shaving, apply a product called "Bikini Zone" to the area shaved to prevent and relieve the bumps.

Use Bikinizone. it may sting a bit at first right after shaving but it works like a charm.

Answer 9

Maybe you should use a different shaving utensil. If you still get red bumps you should just wait for them to go away.
