http://www.theartofshaving.com/ You can also buy their products at Saks, Neimans, and Sephora Okay... What can cheap people do? Shea Butter Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

He swears by the alum block for bumps and was told by the owner of the company that the lavender line of products was developed especially for men of color. 
Art of Shaving is also available online and at Nordstrom. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

don't they have some shave gel called "bump be gone" or "bump no more" or "no more bump" or somethin' like that. It's a gel and has little moisturizing beads in it and comes in a 6 oz tube. I think it's meant for males and females. I know I've seen it before at the walmart. Not that I shop there or nothin....I was just passing through.

I often get gift cards to the salon for the men in my life. But when it comes to my face and any issues I'll spend the money on anything that works . . . gladly. | |

Here's cheap: Use Gilette Mach 3 Turbo blades, shave in the direction of your hair and keep those bump areas really clean.
To that last point, as part of your hygiene regimen, try using an acti-bacterial soap and a shower brush (particularly helpful after shaving) 
Heavily lather the brush, briskly scrub the bump-prone areas and let the lather settle in for a few minutes. Then rinse. Works like a charm. | |

TheVoid said: ScarletScandal said: Okay...so:
1. Neosporin 2. Dermatologist 3. Don't shave against the grain
...and props to everyone in this thread who gave me advice. I really appreciate it  You may have Psuedo Folliculitus Barbae (spelling?). You should check with a dermatologist. The rugrat came out in a massive rash, i mean nasty, all over his chest as a toddler, the ER said it was Folliculitus...i thought at the time they made it up seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before   | |

what are you using to shave? if it's a razor then....BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I have extra sensitive skin so I use clippers 
then I clean my face with alcohol afterwards Wow, I do and use the exact same thing.. Clippers and then alcohol. Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U. | |

I don't get it bad but I get the occasional bump after shaving, especially with an electric razor that doesn't exfoliate like a blade does.
So it helps a lot to exfoliate my face right after using the electric, or to just use the blade. My Legacy
