I actually do use Nair, and I've never had any trouble. You do have to be a bit careful, but it's not something you can't finish in 30 mins. One of my faves is the Bikini Shavers (by Noxema I think?). They're little tiny razors about 1.5 cm in width, they're adorable, disposable, and perfect for such a delicate job.

The Noxema mini bikini shavers are the best thing for this!

i’ve definitely gotta try that get the bump outta here! i get terrible in growns, razor burns, which can turn into a bacterial infection called hydradenitis which i get frequently. it’s HELL! and thank god i started with my legs when i tried the home waxing kit… i messed up BAD!! looked like varicose veins. Eek…. i’ve also tried Nair down there, which i don’t recommend. it just fried my hair and smelled like burning hair. i had to shave it off anyway, and then got a really bad rash. Veet worked a little better for me but not much.

i too suffered from horrible bumps and ingrown hairs after any hair removal procedure – waxing, shaving, you name it – that is UNTIL….my awesome new waxer recommended this product: "Get The Bump Outta Here." It's absolutely amazing. used every few days after waxing, your skin will be perfectly clear and bump/ingrown hair free. i've also used it on my underarms after shaving to help clear up razor burn. it comes in a roll-on deodorant-like container and goes on clear, doesn't burn or stain, and dries fairly quickly. at around $18 it seems kind of expensive, but this stuff will last you forever. and it really works, i swear!

Laser hair removal is the way to go. I got rid of my belly hair and my bikini line hair leaving a nice patch in the middle to be trimmed every few weeks. Never again will I be caught with a last minute beach party invitation just before my next waxing. (Plus all the scars left from years of ingrown hairs even disappeared!) By the way, before the laser removal I would do self waxing. Soosoo much cheaper than having it done in a salon and I never had to expose myself to a stranger.

My "garden" naturally grows within the confines of a bikini line. My husband calls me a dolphin – I have like 4 armpit hairs. However, I do need to keep the lawn mowed to keep it tidy and the stray "weeds" gets plucked. Yes, plucked.

I'm exhausted from all the euphemisms.

ps. I use to just use a pair of scissors down there to trim until I accidentally cut a chunk out while trimming before flying to see my mate… That was something I never want to experience again. Ouch!

Just one warning… Don't let your man trim yours. Made that mistake a few months back as I was a little surpized he wanted to. It was like a kid using a weed whacker for the first time… High and low patches.. Hehe! I did give him an A for effort though.

I tried waxing and got the ingrown hair acne (plus, itchy when it started to grow back in). Last year, I picked up one of those new lady razors with the controversial women-of-different-races-walking past-different-sized shrubbery ads. It has your standard leg/armpit razor on one end and a battery operated shaver on the other end. I'm a big fan. I tend to trim once a week as part of my morning shower routine. I like the look of that Conair trimmer for "edging" my hedge.
