Razor burn!.!.!.!. it's a *****!. Instead of shaving, try a personal groomer next time (in the razor aisle, and remington makes a good one for about $20)!. In the meantime, there's this stuff called Bikini Zone, and it's a gel that helps with bumps and razor burn!. Try that!. If you don't have a way to get to the store, or you don't want to ask your mom, maybe try some aloe gel!. Hope that helped!Www@Answer-Health@Com
That tends to happen as hair grows back!. I wouldn't recommend shaving, especially the pubic area!. Even trimming it can cause it to itch because of how it presses against your skin!. What I've found is that it's the least itchy if you just let it grow!. This does result in some temporary itching, but once it's at its normal length, the itching stops!. As for its cleanliness which some people might be concerned about, you just have to make sure you wash yourself regularly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It should be better in a couple days!. Resist the temptation to scratch!. Don't put any kind of lotion, cream, powder, etc!. on yourself!. Keep clean, and take a couple Tylenol to keep the inflammation down!.

You have the rest of your life to shave your nether-regions!. Enjoy being a girl while you can!. Shouldn't anyone but you be looking at that yet anyway!. Peace!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i shave "downtown" too, (for swimsuit purposes only) and i get itchy too!. it also gets red!. i dont know what it is, but usually if you put lotion on after you shave, and try not to itch it, it will go away!. good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Yeah!.Well if u didn't shave it close enough,little "pricks" of hair can be there making the area irritated and itchy!. It will probaly take a week and a half or a couple of days for some of the hair to halfway grow back!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It will itch until it grows back, if you keep shaving it eventually the area will get used to it and stop itching, for now, theres nothing you can do!.


Sorry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
FINALLY somebody who understands me!. well i am 13 too and i shaved my u noe wat and it itched and had some bumps!. but dont worry it will go 4 a while but might leave scars!. it is probably bcuz ur shavin blade has been used so it became blunt!. bcuz dat iz d main reason that happens!. thanks 4 readinWww@Answer-Health@Com
Because it's not meant to be shaved!. It's going to itch unless you a) keep shaving regularly or b) wait for it to grow back!.

Why a 13 year old is shaving her pubic hair, I don't know!. You want to look like you're eight!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
mine does that too!. it will go away!. its just b/c usually the hair is there too catch dirty and fibers in your underwear!. and now its not and its not used too it!. soo its irrataded!. it will go away thoWww@Answer-Health@Com
thats just the way it feels when it starts to regrow!. it'll probably stop itching in like 2-3 days!. it's because the hair is pooking through the skin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It usually happens the first time because when you shave your skin streches do not worry it will be like this just for a day after that you will adapt to it :) from next time try using hair removal creams :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
its bc the hair is growing back!. and the fact that you shaved it!. if your not supposed to have hair down there it wouldn't be down thereWww@Answer-Health@Com
As far as I know I thought most women used other methods of hair removal down there rather than constantly shaving!. Use some lotion or other skin care and don't scratch it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
its probably itchy because you used a dirty razor ou have to be careful with that did u use soap or shaving cream!? put lotion or baby powder down there after u shaveWww@Answer-Health@Com
ur skin is irritated, u shouldnt shave there just trim it, ur skin down there is superrrr sensitive so i jus give it a nice trim, until then, i guess u shold use an anit-itch creamWww@Answer-Health@Com
