Soap

• Do not try to shave using soap in your pubic zone---this will cause uncomfortable bumps and rashes, or even ingrown hairs.
  
  

Pre-Shave Oil

• Pre-shave oil lessens the drag of the razor against your skin and thus prevents razor burn and chapping.
  
  

Gel

• Try a moisturizing shave gel to give you a smooth, close shave and prevent irritation at the same time.
  
  

Cream

• Look for a medicated shave cream with aloe vera to reduce redness after shaving and to keep your skin smooth after hair removal.
  
  

Scents

• Scented shaving gel or cream is tempting, but keep in mind that if you have sensitive skin, added scents will irritate your skin more than a cream with no fragrance.
  
  

Bump Treatment

• If you do end up with razor bumps or ingrown hairs, treat them with a solution made for after-shaving treatments. Fragrance-free moisturizer works well, too.
