Stop that!


Try Tea Tree oil


This is a good idea

Tea Tree oil is strong so make sure it is properly diluted with a high grade carrier oil

there's a very simple solution.
STOP shaving against the grain.
in other words, just shave down your face.
DO NOT shave "up".
you'll still have a "clean" shaven face for the most part,
but leave enough of a hair shaft above the skin line where you won't get bumps.

hmmm I do shave up...I get a cleaner shave that way.

Asians don't get razor bumps. I thought I had two once, but then I realized they were my nipples.

Cause I'm half white I have to keep up the illusion by shaving my chest. That's where I discovered the 'bumps'. I know regretfully little about my body because I'm so virginal.

You may have Psuedo Folliculitus Barbae (spelling?). You should check with a dermatologist.

The best advice I got about razor bumps came a cousin of mine. Pick which shaving system you like the best. Me, I chose to use Gillette Mach 3 line of razors.

Make sure you cleanse, exfoliate and moisturize your skin. That helps to keep the hair from doubling back in your skin. I've been doing this for over 15 years now and my razor bumps have ceased.

So, if you like Magic Shave, use it. The big key is to keep your skin clean. The cleaner your skin, the smaller your pores are and the less chance your hair will double back in your skin.

I sell Avon if you want to order some skincare products. wink

and THAT'S your problem.
trust me, i shave my head.
and i learned the hard way about NOT doing that.
i use a Gillette Fusion and i shave down, and i get a really clean shave with no bumps at all. try it and see how much of a difference it makes.

Well there u go. Is the Gillette razor the grey & black one? My ex used that one to shave his head.

The blue and orange razor gave him bumps.

Toothpaste is good for drying up pimples really quick. Makeup artists do that.

Find out if there's an Art of Shaving store in your city. If there is, call and ask if they have a black barber experienced in dealing with folliculitis that can give you a consultation

You can also buy their products at Saks, Neimans, and Sephora

Okay...
What can cheap people do?
