Bikini Line Irritation
Posted: 03-20-07 16:48pm

hey girls i need some advice on how to get rid of irritation on my bikini line. i do shave and i always end up with redness and ingrown hairs. ive tried a variety of things and it seems like nothing really helps? my bikini line never ever looks like nicely shaved legs. i know lots of girls shave their bikini line for bathing suits and such but even if i wanted to, it would be gross cuz i would have obvious signs of shaving!! help

Well, one bit advice is to do it often so your skin gets usd to it; to use lotion-containing shaving cream, and use lots of aloe-based lotion afterwards. You can also try waxing Wink or a hair remover like Nair.

Hello and How are you? I prefer to use clippers and antiseptic afterwards. Then I use Vitamin E cream to moisturize it. I never get the itch or the spikey grow afterwards...Goodluck

my skin is overly sensitive so i always had that irritation from shaving and nothing save me from it. I did laser hair removal on the bikini line and now i never have to shave thus no irritation ever again. If you can afford it, I strongly recommend it.

depends on the state. In the us like CA is fairly inexpensive. The price also depend on the amount of hair you want removed. Say like if you want only two inches that would be around $300 just to throw a number. If you want like the brazillian package which is like all of the hair then it would be around 1k (in a upscale salon). So you do have to shop around a little bit. I personally have found it so wonderful not to shave so i have spent a lot in laser removal. In addition to my bikini line I have also done my legs and my underarms. I used to shave underarms everyday now I don't ever have to do again. To me this is worth every penny i have paid for. Just a luxury of life I wanted to have Smile
