Thread: Razor Bumps

There's probably more than one ailment than can appear as "bumps" on the shaving area. IME red bumps are ingrown hairs. Faces differ, but through the years when I have had them (I had them for years using an electric and figured it was part and parcel with shaving) the only way to make them go away was free them with a pointed tweezers.

Ingrown hairs if that's what you're experiencing IME comes from shaving too closely ATG. I agree with Ryan that neck whiskers are notorious in growing in haphazard directions, swirls, etc. In one pass in one direction on a neck, a person could end up cutting some whiskers WTG, XTG and ATG. I have a few areas on my neck like that. It sucks. You have to learn where those areas are and experiment with the best approach; use a very light touch.
