I wouldn't say it has ruined it... but it hasn't done it much good either. I waxed and plucked for a long time before shaving, and had better results with the others. Like you, it makes my skin irritated and bumpy, and also gives a darker cast to it in areas where there is more hair. I can cover the darker areas with makeup, but I reallly don't like wearing that much concealor. I've tried both regular razors, and my hubby's electric. The bumps and discoloration are there either way.
I only started shaving so I could do laser, and I have got to give a huge thumbs up to laser removal. I've had 2 treatments so far and can already tell a huge difference in the amount of hair, and the texture of the hair. The hair that is growing in now is much finer.
I have to remove less often now, so the skin is improving from the shaving damage.
