I've been using an electric to shave pretty much everything but the mons for about 8 months (and it's been working well - no skin issues), and ratbastid just convinced me to shave the rest off last weekend and DAMN am I covered in red bumps (the mons, anyhow)!!! Using the electric, I just get stubble, so I used a Silk Effects (new blade) razor in the shower, and that got rid of the stubble but now my skin is all red and bumpy. I've been following all the advice - scrubbing to get rid of ingrowns, putting vaseline on it - but hell this looks awful! I have sensitive skin to start with - is it just a matter of time till my skin gets used to it? It's only been a few days. Much more of this and I'm just letting it grow back!
