Whenever I have my nether region, I get the itchy red bumps for days afterwards. Can anyone suggest a razor (or other method) that leaves a cleaner shave? It's hard to feel sexy when your love zone looks like it has chicken pox..lol!!

Wow .. if that happened to me I think would reconsider shaving. But if you want to keep doing it, you might look up the 'Personal Shaver'. I have heard it helps. Just do a search for personal shaver in google or yahoo search engines. There is more than one place to get them and more than one type but some people rave over them. I don't have much to shave ... but I may try one myself. Since my hair is so fine I shave almost everyday and sometimes it is a little irritating!

Good luck.

Welcome to the board eskaymom.

I don't shave close, but I have heard others mention using hair conditioner as a sort of shaving gel. Also, use one of the razors that has the built in moisture strips, make sure the razor is sharp, and don't use the same one that is used on your legs and/or underarms.

Hopefully, others who shave will be by with tips as well.

Wax is your friend! Give serious thought to either waxing or using an epilator - wither will leave you smooth for weeks and regrowth will be fine and soft.

Barring that, you might check out Bikini Zone, Witch Hazel, or Tend Skin. All will help with bumps and ingrowns.

I like to use a hair conditioner. I also use the Venus Vibrance razor. Don't use the same razor you use on your legs and under arms.
