Hi ladies, I need any advice on getting rid of razor burn and ingrown hairs on my thighs. I always shave the bottom of my legs with no problems, but I always get red bumps on my thighs. I thought to try Veet or some other kind of cream based hair removal product but thought I'd ask here first. Please, any tips or tricks you ladies have would be appreciated. Thanks!

What can I do next?

I find that if I shave my legs at night and wait until the next morning to put lotion or oil on my legs, I don't have the bumps and itching.

Try using Coochy Cream. It is the best RASH FREE Shaving cream you will ever use. You can use it for all of your shaving needs. I am with Pure Romance Parties and we offer 2 different sizes and scents.

I love Veet! I tend to get razor burn on my thighs as well when I shave, but not with Veet. I also love that it lasts longer than shaving.

I have a skin care, health and wellness company. We have a line for men which has a great shaving gel.

I know it sounds funny BUT it is really good for in preventing in-grown hairs.

My husband is African American (as I am) and they have a lot of trouble with in-grown hairs and razor bumps. This product is wonderful for preventing them.

Please let me know if you'd like more information.

Thanks and God bless!

I have very sensitive skin and the only thing that I can use is Body Satin shave gel from Melaleuca. The Renew lotion and bath oil help the skin as well. If you aren't a Melaleuca customer I would love to show you how to become a customer. It is the easiest way to have safe natural products that work! The products are very inexpensive and have a 100% money back guarantee. I hope to hear from you soon.

The best thing I have used has been good ol Witch Hazel. It is not expensive and works wonders, at least for me it did. It is a natural astringent. It doesn't burn either! You can get it any drug store or supermarket. My husband uses it on his face instead of aftershave now as well...

My opinion is waxing :) I know... It hurts..but it is soo worth it. I am allergic to veet and nair.. and razors give me bumps too.. so I tried waxing and it works wonders... just my thoughts.
