writes:Okay so this question is embarrassing...I've shaved my pubes for quite some time. I happen to think that hair is nasty. Anyways...I don't know why but like two days later I break out down there? And as soon as I start to grow more the pimples go away. I don't understand this at all. Also I can't shave again after I get stubbly or else it will hurt and bleed. Can I have some help on this anyone please? Thank you. Reply to this Question

 You could be having an allergic reaction? Try dry shaving, I find it sooo much easier and it doesnt feel soar or itchy afterwards. Or as the others said, try waxing. Hair removal cream is okay but doesnt work as well.
Hope this helped.

 Honestly, i have the same.
When you shave with a razor down there you will get little red pimples and stubbles because the hair does have to grow back.
How un-sightly it might be but thats what happens.
After a while they do go away because your hair is now growing back.
Dont panic its all natural.
Just wait it out when its stubbly i dont shave it either at that point, i let it grow a little bit than reshave it.
Remember to use quite alot of water and foam to avoid cutting yourself.
Dont shave over stubble because you will hurt yourself and you could bleed.
Hope it helped :)

Get a decent lather going with some gentle soap and clean the area (sounds gross, but not as gross as it being dirty). Rinse off with WARM (not HOT or COLD) water and applying a moisture rich shaving mousse. Then shave gently in upwards and downwards strokes to remove hairs and minimise irritation. Rinse with warm water and pat dry. To soothe irritation apply a light layer of nappy rash cream and leave to work for a few minutes while you condition your hair or something. Done!
Good luck xxx
