Home remedy/inexpensive way to get rid of bikini line bumps?

Question

How can I get rid of bikini line bumps (caused by shaving) with common products/really cheaply? I already use a sharp razor and shaving cream and go with the grain. I've heard regular deodorant rubbed sparingly on the area helps. Any other ideas?

Answer 1

Prevent it in the first place. Try a salt scrub before shaving, works well for legs also.

Answer 2

Waxing/plucking will make them go away for a few days but then they'll eventually come back worse as the root of the hair gets deeper/stronger. I'd recommend using a good razor with soap and hot water and then applying 'PFB Vanish' (you can order it online.) They don't completely disappear but it really does help :] If the bumps are sore or look infected you can also go and speak to a doctor about it and they should give you some cream to put on them when they really flare up. The only way of truly getting rid of them is having laser hair removal - it's expensive, but if they really bother you it may be something to consider in the future. I hope this helped, and remember that a lot of, if not most people get some kind of irritation from shaving sometimes, so don't let it bother you that much. :]

Answer 3

Ive heard rubbing the juice of a garlic on it clears it up. Try it if you can stand the smell. I would rub it on at night before bed and shower it off in the morning.
