I'm lucky that somehow I have fine hair on my legs. I only shave once a week. Even if I haven't shaved my legs in awhile, I can wear and skirt and no one will notice. Now, the hair on the rest of my body is another story! I have hairy arms and "peach fuzz" on my face. I also get the red bumps on my bikini area. But I have found that if I only shave my bikini area once a week, that I don't get the red bumps. Luckily I work during the summers, so there is rarely a time that I need to share my bikini area more than once a week.

I don't shave my legs as often as I'd like to because I get razor burn REALLY bad.... The only thing that helped me was "Coochy" shaving lotion. You can get it in adult stores, online and from a couple of the pleasure party vendors (Pure Romance, for example). It's not 100% cured, but it's definitely better than it would be otherwise.

I rarely have to shave my underarms and bikini area now. I'm having those areas lasered and it's working!

I should shave my legs every day...dark, course hair!! But in the summer it's usually every other day and then in the winter, it's once a week, maybe twice. I just wish I didn't have to at all. I use "Skintimate" shaving gel for my legs and underarms. I get it at Wal Mart. Never had any skin problems from using it.

IT WORKS!!!! IT WORKS!!! I used to have the red bump thing too and tried the hydrocorticsone cream-no more bumps...although sometimes after i shave my hubby gets all excited and friction is a bitch so i use the hydro cream and mix it with a little neosporin so i don't look like i have some weird hoochie disease the next day!!!
