How to prevent rash after shaving? (+ 5 products that prevent it)

It is necessary to prepare for the bathing season or the biking season. We are not talking about a strict diet and fitness. To have a "beach body" is enough to have a "body". And we sincerely hope you are aware of this. This article is dedicated to removing unwanted hair in the bikini area. And whether you choose to shave, wax or sugar – none of it is very pleasant and almost all methods can encourage redness, irritation and bumps. A rash in the bikini area (or folliculitis) is caused by inflammation of the hair follicle in the skin that occurs after shaving or waxing. And because hair in the bikini area is more stubborn compared to other parts of the body, irritation after shaving or waxing is more common. But this irritation can also be prevented before it actually occurs.

To all those of you who are in the bikini area you shave, dermatologist Adarsh Vijay Mudgil recommends shaving in the shower. It should be a razor new and sharp, and shaving cream, foam or gel should be used in a larger dose. Use when shaving hot or warm water, which will relax the muscles, open the pores and soften the hair, making shaving easier. After shaving, rinse the area with cold water, as this will soothe the skin and close the pores, reducing post-shave irritation.

Make bikini season as carefree as possible.

The dermatologist also recommends it use of mild cortisol lotions, which is applied immediately after shaving. They also help gels and creams with aloe vera.
If the rash appears every time after hair removal and is painful and unpleasant, you should rather opt for laser hair removal. You can go to a salon or get yourself a removal device.
