i use hair conditioner and that seems to help because i dont really notice any bumps, also exfoliate the area for ingrown hairs.

 
I use neosporin..it doesn't irritate me and it is soothing..I use it when my skin is still damp after saving.

 
o.k. sorry I never responded I had forgotten that I had posted here, that happens alot, lol. Anyway I got a brazilian laser treatment. I got it at my gyno's since he started offering this and it was much cheaper than a laser center. Since I am a loyal client of his he gave me a discount so I paid like $500.00 for about 6 treatments. Pain is not that bad, how big is that area anyway? you'll be done in less than five minutes. I got it done last year and I still have no hair at all, of course the doctor told me this was really just permanent hair REDUCTION. So eventually I will have to go back for touch ups, but I have been lucky and no hair has grown back YET thank God! It is very worth it never having to shave again or have razor bumps. I also use the remmington hair trimmer for everything else that didn't get lasered and it rocks!!!

 
I started waxing my bikini area instead of shaving so I don't have to deal with the razor bumps. I still get some ingrowns but I just use Tendskin on the area.

 
About the deoderant stick use after shaving, I wouldn't do it. The jury is still out on whether women should use deoderant immediately after shaving the underarm (some researchers are saying there are links to immediate after-shave deoderant use and breast cancer).

I have a good experience with tea tree oil though. I don't really grow much body hair at all so I don't shave more than once a month. I kind of wish I had a little more hair so that I could wax successfully. Beauticians take one look at me and tell me to go home. I just don't have enough to have get a traditional waxing. Does anyone know if threading is something I should look into for my condition?

 
Ok now I have a question about tea tree oil. I usually epilate my legs and bikini area. Do you use the tea tree oil right after you shave/epilate? Doesn't it sting? Also, do you use it straight or mix it with water? And finally do you use it every day after the initial shave. TIA.

 
I thought that I was the only one who got that! I hate shaving though... cause I have to do it daily. Have you found any alternatives besides shaving and waxing?

Thanks!

 
I have used deodorant on my bikini area before, but I didn't notice any huge difference. I just use conditoner and that is what has helped minimize bumps and itching

 
I've used bikini zone ladies and if used constantly right after shaving if really helps dramatically! It does sting at first but it goes away and it's worth it at the end!!!

 
conditioner does work - let it sit a while before you shave and then I used shave gel - makes all the difference in the world.....

 
the ONLY way to avoid razor bumps in the bikini area ( I shave the whole thing ) is by using a brand NEW Razor every time and not the cheapo kind. something that has 3 blades, I use Men's Shick (green kind) comes in 4 or 8 per package. Lots of shaving cream too helps. I do this about once a week and have no problems with bumps of any kind. I use this new razor under my armpits & private area only. Then use a different one to shave my legs (which I can use multiple times).
