Shaving pubic hair. advice please.?

i have never shaved my pubic region but as a swimmer i have done alot of shaving. the bumps are probably razor burn. a fresh razor and quality shaving cream should help. to get completely smooth you may need to do two passes. the first should be in the same direction the hair grows. also rubbing alcohol will help to prevent ingrown hairs which could also be the cause of the bumps you are seeing. taking a hot shower beforehand and using conditioner will soften the hairs and help you to get as close as possible
