Why do I get razor bumps no matter how careful I shave?
Answered by Eva Taub
I can usually answer this before someone finishes describing their shaving routine to me: if you have curly or coily hair, razor bumps happen because the cut hair curls back into the skin as it regrows — a mechanical result of your natural curl pattern, not a sign you’re shaving incorrectly. Better shaving technique can reduce how bad it gets, but in my experience, for many people it can’t be shaved away entirely, because the cause is the hair itself, not the method. What I actually recommend is laser hair removal, because it addresses the cause instead of trying to out-technique it.

The dark hair is gone, and the dark marks went with it. What is left is white hair — which no laser can see, because there is no pigment for the beam to find. That part is electrolysis, one follicle at a time.Long-pulse Nd:YAG for the dark hair, electrolysis for the white, mandelic acid for the discoloration. Twelve months. Every treatment performed by Eva Taub. Results differ from person to person.
If you are not anywhere near Newnan
Most women who read this page are nowhere near my treatment room, and I am not going to pretend a consultation in Georgia is useful to someone in Ohio.
What I can send you is the same mandelic acid formulation I use on my own clients for exactly this. No hydroquinone. No bleaching agent. Nothing that strips your skin to make it lighter. Used twice a week, and one kit lasts three to five months.
