Hello everyone, will try and keep this as compact as is possible.
I’ve struggled with razor bumps and I imagine ingrown hairs since I literally began shaving 11 years ago but became so used to shaving every day or other that I forgot the appearance of my neck wasn’t normal (comparatively speaking).
Back in June though I was stressing out so much and became so self conscious that I searched for help and advice. Came across this wonderful site and had the luck of finding a thread in which a lad had the same issues as me and he resolved his in a matter of weeks with some solutions passed on by some really helpful people. I took on all those guides and advice and obviously had to trial and error for myself, to which I saw generally speaking really positive results. Only now do I think I’ve hit a plateau and I’m desperate to get to a point where I basically look in the mirror and feel somewhat normal ish.
Does anyone have any other tips on how to completely rid the redness/razor bumps I have? (Will attach photos of back in July time and now..the improvement in how my neck actually feels is incredible, it’s more the appearance and irritation I still sometimes get that is frustrating me).
I moved from a regular 5 blade razor to DE safety razor as well as soap rather than gel. I warm shower before, lather up and go to work WTG, but I do find the right side of my neck the issue as well as centrally. The left is and has never been a issue. What I believe really helped was Bump Stopper but I don’t want to be reliant on this my whole life.
So, is there any more I can do or try to get it past the point of this block I feel I’ve hit and/or is there a suitable electric razor that would fit the bill for me to help ease the burden on my skin as I shave every 36-48 hours as I look homeless otherwise.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Gerard.
