Preventing Razor Bumps and Skin Irritation After Shaving

Preventing Razor Bumps and Skin Irritation After Shaving

Razor bumps are small, red bumps that appear after shaving because the hair grows back into the skin instead of outward.

To prevent them, gently scrub your skin before shaving to remove dead skin.

Always use a sharp, clean razor and apply shaving cream to protect your skin.

Shave in the same direction that your hair grows to avoid irritation.

After shaving, rinse with cool water and use a moisturizer.

Avoid tight clothing to let your skin breathe and heal.
