Ingrown hairs are the number one problem when dealing with pubic hair styling. It is a problem in all kinds of hair removal, but hurts more when it’s in the pubic area, and can harm your sex life too. Here is a very useful guide from wikihow on how to prevent ingrown hair in your pubic area-
Ingrown pubic hairs occur when the tip of the hair grows back underneath the skin, which can often cause pain and irritation. The problem is most common in people with thick, coarse hair. The easiest way to prevent ingrown pubic hairs is to just let the hair grow naturally. If this is not desirable, the following tips will guide you through safer hair-removal processes.
Steps
Shave Pubic Hair
Trim your pubic hair. Pull the hair away from your body and trim it with scissors or clippers. Safety guards are sometimes available for cosmetic scissors and clippers.
Soak the hair with warm water before shaving for at least 3 minutes. Shaving after a hot bath or shower is recommended.
Use a hypoallergenic shaving cream or gel. Allergies to shaving products are common in the pubic area, so test the product by applying a small amount at first. Apply a generous amount of the product before you shave.
Shave pubic region.
Use a sharp, single-bladed razor. Multiple blades often cut the hair too short. Shave in the direction of your hair growth. Razors that have a cushion or moisturizing strip can help prevent irritation, as well.
Press the razor firmly enough to the skin to remove all the unwanted hair evenly, but do not use too much pressure.
Do not shave too close to the skin, and avoid the closest-shave setting when using an electric razor. Do not pull your skin tight when shaving.
Rinse the razor after each stroke. Reapply the shaving cream as necessary throughout the process.
Apply a cool cloth or pad to the shaved area when you are finished.
Do not shave too often. Once a week is the recommended maximum frequency you should shave the pubic area. Stop shaving if you already have ingrown hairs in the pubic area.
Take Care of Your Skin
Use a moisturizer if you often have dry skin in the area. Make sure the product is safe to apply to the pubic region. If at all possible, use an unscented product that does not have sun block or other additives.
Keep your skin clean. Shower after working out or sweating a lot.
Warnings
Avoid waxing the pubic area if you are prone to ingrown hairs. This process increases the likelihood that hair will grow back under the skin and cause irritation. If you must wax, get it done by a professional.
Do not scratch or pick at ingrown pubic hairs. This can lead to infection.
See a doctor if ingrown hairs are a chronic problem.

This article will teach you the tips and tricks on how to remove your pubic hair the easiest way. Anyway, pubic hair starts to grow as soon as you reach your puberty years. This is where you start to have unwanted hair strands on your under arms, legs, face, chest and groins which is more common for males. To give you brief information about the history of pubic hair shaving, this method of cleaning oneself has been a practice for quite some time already. In fact women who work as prostitutes in the year 1915 onwards do this due to hygienic purposes and to distinguish them by their profession.
I will focus on the ways to shaving pubic area for women. If this is your first time to do it, expect that you will need to be a little bit patient for it is not as easy as doing it with your legs and underarms because the area is prone to lacerations from the blade and the hair is thicker than the ones you have on your legs or underarms. Also, if you do it the improper way, aside from lacerating that area, you might end up having ingrown hair or nicks.
The first thing that you have to know is – you cannot do the job quick. You need at least 30 minutes depending on the thickness of the hair to finish shaving your pubic area. Give it a trim before using your razor. Make it at least half an inch long to make it easier for you to shave. Use a good unscented shaving cream and never use soap or worst – shampoo. Shaving creams are the best because aside from giving you a smooth glide with your razor, the area will also be moisturized. Speaking of razor, never use a cheap one. Get something that can reach different angles and the ones with double blades.
When stroking your razor, be sure to follow the opposite growth of your hair. Shaving pubic area too many times may result to redness, rashes and razor burn that is why you have to do your strokes 1-2 times per area. Remember to wash your razor every 3 strokes or less to avoid clogging of hair.
After removing the unwanted hair, take a hot shower bath which will allow your hair follicles to relax. Take a washcloth and rub it against the area which will help remove dead skin cells to make the area smooth and soft.
Never try to do this during your period because your skin is much more sensitive during this time. You can also use a vaginal protector while removing the hair – to protect any cuts on your outer vulva. IF you don’t have this tool, you can always use a pocket mirror to help you see everything from underneath.
Doing this is actually a personal choice. You can do it the traditional way by removing everything or you can go daring by doing different styles and designs.
