When pruning the lady garden so to speak, I find that I get a shaving rash sometimes, especially if it's quite soon after shaving previously (1-2 days)

Does anyone have any tips as to how to stop this or minimize it? I've tried different razors etc and shaving cream is a no no, it just makes it worse

I currently use Wilkinson sword intuition blades with the soap already round the blade

Dont know if works on 'lady garden' but with the meat and veg I use hair conditioner now

Read it somewhere, tried it and just works so well, and really reduced the issues afterwards

May work, may not, does for me though

I have always had the same problem and decided to try Veet cream instead....I have to say I will not be going back to razors!! Slap it on, have a lie down for 20 mins, shower off and all done! For me it is smoother than shaving and lasts longer too!

I used to use veet all the time but only on my legs, put it on 1 day and it burnt the whole of my legs from top to bottom after being on about 2 minutes, took about 2 weeks to go down and was agony, hence I don't want to try it again

I burnt off several layers of skin with the sensitive veet. Couldn't wear anything on my legs for a few weeks.

Hair conditioner works for sliding. Exfoliate, exfoliate and exfoliate. Moisturise after.

I've just invested in an epilator but I'm too chicken to use it there yet.

Use less pressure on the razor - if it's a multi blade job you'll pull the hair out past the follicle and it'll irritate the skin when it retracts.

Use a glycerin based soap to wash yer bits, and hair conditioner is a good shout (let it sit for a while) - both break the outer shaft of the hair a bit, so it's easier to get the razor through it in less passes. Less passes = less chance of developing a rash.

Whatever anyone tells you, DON'T use alum downstairs unless you want to be breakdancing for 20 mins.
