any tips for dealing with razor bumps?!


Question:
Answers:
Before anything else, let your hair grow out for a while and give your skin a rest before shaving again (a minimum of three days).
Bumps can get infected fairly easily, so tend to them immediately. Using a local antibiotic will probably help, especially if there's a cut.
Don't pick at or squeeze bumps. That will tend to make things worse.
Make sure to get your hair very wet before shaving, ideally after taking a bath or shower. If you don't shower first, wet your hair for at least two minutes with warm, soapy water. Wet hair cuts better and easier than dry hair, and is more likely to cut evenly (and not at an angle).
Use a good shaving cream to reduce friction and irritation. Really work the shaving cream into your scalp for at least two minutes, and save areas that tend to develope bumps for last when you're shaving, so that the shaving cream has longer to soften the hair.
Shave with the grain, not against it.
Don't go over the same area more than twice.
Don't stretch out your skin while shaving; let is stay neutral and relaxed. Stretching your skin while you shave increases the chance that the hair will 'snap back' to below skin level.
Replace your blade regularly. Shaving with a dull blade increases the chances of hair tearing unevenly.
Use a single-blade razor instead of a double- or triple-blade razor. The 'lift and cut' effect of multi-blade razors is something people with PFB generally try to avoid.

well what u need to do is use the best disposable u can afford , if that doesnt work, a good electrict should solve your problem, if not i dont like the chemicals so i guess i would either keep a short beard or spend some bucks and get it electrically removed
put lotion on it
Try shaving in the shower, using soap, and rest a few days before shaving
