Could it be ingrown hairs?  I have had that happen before if I shaved against the grain I certain areas.

Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being....  - Dan Barker

I looked and could see anything.  I just pop them like normal pimples and wait for them to go away (which seems like forever!)

Self waxing kits are cheap. I saw on today, a starter kit,  for  about 60 dollars and the  results  will last as long as 6 weeks. This is a great option for body hair and long term it is cheaper than razers.

The face and neck really need laser treatments for good results.

Not to hijack this thread, but my question is related :)

I've noticed now that I'm shaving my legs fairly regularly ... My legs are breaking out, not razor burn, full on zits.  I exfoliate daily, and moisturize almost everyday.  I'm not sure if this is my legs just getting use to clothing without the protection of leg hair or what.  Normal?

I noticed a bit of that at first.- I was regularly shaving them 15 yrs ago. Going against the grain and doing it softly definitely helped. So did doing it in a hot bath vs the shower. There are also after shaving treatments that essentially make the skin more sterile post shave, making less bacteria available for infection. Basically aftershave for the legs.

Eventually i think my skin got use to it. Recently as my skin has changed from HRT, i am getting more nicks and razor burn, so i have gone back to being careful. Luckily on HRT my need to shave my legs has dropped to about once per week.
