Ingrown Hairs. Products to prevent, cure?

[Hiding]

This sounds crazy, but a lot of dancers I know swear by solid antiperspirant after a shave.

I find exfoliating with St. Ives exfoliating scrub and very warm water before shaving helps prevent ingrown hairs. Don't shave against the hair, shave along it.

Single blade razor (single blade safety razor NOT a straight razor unless you want to perform a DIY vasectomy!). Avoids pulling the hair out and cutting it so short it ends up below the skin.

I also find I cannot shave my pubes above the unit without looking like a freshly plucked turkey. Balls and shaft ok, but not above. Weird. Anyway I prefer not to look like a 10 year old so this is a good combo for me.

Bit of exfoliation helps too, powder them up to keep dry afterward as well. Hope this helps.
