Thread: If its not a bump, what is it?

I'm giving my face a rest for a day because I think by inflating my cheeks and over stretching I caused some bumps to occur on my cheeks. But, they aren't the ingrown hair type. Is this due to irritation? I don't have it anywhere else, like my neck or chin.

Nice sharp razors.
Everywhere else looks good.
I've been getting some really great results and I thought I'd try something different by inflating my cheeks to help with the stretch. (I'm sure you all will think this is the reason, but I had to ask.)

I use a different soap or cream everyday so I don't think that's the culprit either.

Suggestions?

Well don't know. Might be alergies. Also If you are pressing tpp hard they may still be ingrown hairs but without the hair comming out yet. I used to get that with my cartridges where i would have to cut it open and go exploring with a sharp pair of tweezers. That is why I love straights. The only ingrown hairs I get are right on the surface and easy to pop up if they don't do it on its own. Dom't know what else to say. See what they do and judge from there.

Thanks Chris,

I'm pretty sure its not allergies. Maybe your right on the pressure idea.

It took me several weeks of learning my growth patterns to start to get a decent shave.

This last week was when I added some new stretching moves and took a couple of days for the bumps raise up. They're very small and don't have any color differences than my normal skin.

Hold the Fort!

I went and used the wife's makeup mirror and with a little probing saw small grey hairs just starting to emerge from the bumps!

OK, Too much stretching? Am I trying to hard for a BBS result here?

Maybe? Suggestions?
