Try using a sensitive shaving cream/gel. If it still itches, switch out your razor

I use aloe as an exfoliate about 15 minutes before i shower I put a thick layer on the area I’ll shave and let it really absorb into the skin and then when I get into the shower I use an exfoliating glove (or a washcloth/loofah whatever works) to scrub the aloe off with water. Then I shave with a conditioner as a shaving cream. After I get done in the shower I put baby oil on as well. This really helps you shave the hair and get healthier regrowth but I still occasionally get one I have to pluck

Shave in the direction of the growth not against it and make sure you use a sharp razor like keep one specifically for your armpits and legs and then another just for down there

do you use a specific razor 😭 I deadass do pretty much the same thing I mean I don’t exfoliate bc i thought exfoliating down there isn’t good but I shave down and use shaving cream idk why it does this after it’s so annoying and makes me not wanna shave but like I can’t not shave for too long yk

I don’t get bumps and I just use an aloe lotion after (ofc shaving cream but literally the cheapest brand)

I should elaborate that more often than not my little red bump is like a pimple on top of an infected/ingrown hair
