i was wondering if anyone has any tips on hair removal from your vagina. last night i waxed and did a little bit of shaving, but its sooo annoying, the area is still pretty red and im afraid that im gonna get all kinda of bumps and such.....not to mention that my bikini line still has ingrown hairs that i just can't seem to get rid of! All I want is for that area to be smooth, lol. What can i do to get rid of the redness and bumps, etc???

Hair removal

I get myself waxed at a salon and the area will be red and sore afterwards and sometimes I get bruising too. The beautican noticed I have sensitive skin and said to use Aloe Vera gel/lotion on the area after and also use it before as it will help desensitize the area.I'm never happy with the result, there's always a few hairs that are missed or they don't take as much as I want off etc. So I was thinking about getting laser hair removal but I don't know how much it costs, any side effects from it. Anyone ever get it done??

ugh how long does the redness last? i feel so gross and ugly down there now, lol. i didn't even get all the hair removed, i'm gonna have to wax again in a few days. i couldnt bring myself to wax around the lips though, too painful, so i shaved there, but shaving always scares me a bit cause of ingrown hairs and stuff. ugh...

oh just a day or two maybe more but it depends on how sensitive you are. First time I ever got waxed it looked like someone had repeatedly kicked me down there...she did a good job though. The Aloe Vera gel will definately help. Banna boat or any brand really. Its pretty cheap to buy.
Only ever gotten extended bikini line and then just trimmed the rest. But next time I'm getting the WHOLE lot whipped off me. Hopefully I will be able to survive the pain... :open_mouth:

i hope so i look terrible lol, not bruised but red and kinda bumpy and ahh. sorry it just makes me feel gross. i wish that i had waited and gone to a salon. how long should i wait to wax the rest of the missed hairs? causxe there are quite a few....

Put hair conditioner on yourself before you shave with a razor.

I'm tellin you, put aloe vera on it and it will help soothe the area. Will just be a few days for the lumps and bumps to go down. They say to wait 6 weeks after waxing but I'm not sure. Maybe if there was a beautican around!! Maybe even just use a cream like Immac/Veet to remove the rest of the hairs. Depends where they are really...
-
it says on veet etc not for use in the genital area.......
-
You can get Veet for the bikini line area. That's why I said depends on where they (the hairs) are. Always gotta be careful of that area and unless ya know what you're doing, a salon is a better option.

thanks. i bought some aloe vera gel and at least it feels good on my irritated skin! i think that i will just used the get and avoid any more shaving/waxing for a few days at least......should i possibly go to a salon to get the rest of the hair removed when the bumps and redness go away? and fyi: i waxed/shaved it all off. thanks!
