I use baby oil when I shave and even then I usually experience itching a few days after when it’s growing back!! Make sure to not shave everyday too!

shaving down there with a regular razor has never worked for me tbh. i either just trim or shave but not down to the skin. it really helps with irritation and ingrowns. i use the phillips one blade intimate razor for shaving and trimming

While shaving and then I rinse with warm water to make sure I get it all off, if I leave it I get pimples! Also make sure to pat dry and shave in the direction of the hair, not against it like you would do your legs. Sometimes if I haven’t shaved in a while I can’t get it fully clean it one go or it’ll irritate my skin super bad, so just make sure you’re listening to your skin when you shave!
