Default The bikini line shave - anyone have suggestions for the razor bumps?

My bikini line extends , lets just say, a little further down my legs than I would like. But shaving it it horrible too because the razor burn there is terrible. I've tried expensive razors, womens bikini trimmers, etc. There was a cream that walmart sold , actually targeted for African American male's face bumps, it worked great but they don't seem to carry it anymore. Anybody have a good trick?

Are you talking about Magic? It's a shaving powder that is specially designed for african american man. I use it and I love it i would never go back to using a razor for my bikini line and it is not expensive at all it's around $3.00 and i buy it at Wallgreens.

I have seen Magic at Target but have never tried it.

I find personally my "bikini area" responds well to epilating. I find some areas of my body do not... but the bikini area, it works very well there for me.

I get the bumps really badly. Mine are because most of the follicles have 2 hairs and one grows properly while the other curls under the skin and get's ingrown. I swear by Bikin Zone. It's a staple in my bathroom

Whoa dudette - you must have super human pain threshold or mine is just pathetic, but I can't stand the pain and plucking is out of the question because, 1 - its painful, but 2 it would take me hours - there's just way too much.

That said, I AM willing to try waxing again, maybe having it done vs. the at home method will make a difference.

I'm gonna go look for that Magic, thanks for the suggestion. The stuff I used to buy was called Bump Stopper, I think. I really miss it.
