After Shaving Are The Bumps Noticable? O.o

Depends. If you get a lot of big, red bumps, then yes, they are very noticeable. But you might only get a few here and there, or they may be small. In that case you can probably get away with them better. I guess the real way to find out is to shave and see.

If you press too hard hon, you can get bumps and/or a rash. That will be noticable at first. Now hon, if you keep at it,you will find that your skin gets acclimated to shaving and you develop skill in shaving so that you no longer get bumps and rashes.

Practice, Practice, Practice.

Brenda is correct that is takes a lot of practice to get it down with no bumps showing up after shaving. The one thing to remember is to go with the grain so that it doesn't irritate the skin. You might even put lotion on it afterwards to soothe the skin.

Love,

I've been shaving my legs for a year now and the bumps occur every time. Some of them even bleed. My skin simply will not get used to, and I've tried at least four different brands/types of razors. My face, for whatever reason, doesn't suffer from the bumps. But everywhere else does.

Two words...Bikini Zone. It's a medicated Gel (or creme) that makes those bumps go away! Usually overnight, for me. I use it all over my legs after shaving, and again once or twice the following day. It's a miracle product, and I'd recommend it to anyone who's just starting to shave new areas. It's not that expensive, well worth it for the results.

Give it a shot! The worst that can happen is you're out 5 or 6 bucks.

Hmmm sweetie,

I would expect that after a year that your legs are used to being shaved. May I suggest that you use moisturizer on your legs before you go to bed. In the morning, after a hot shower, lather your legs up good with plenty of soap. Then, carefully, slowly and lightly shave your legs. Use smooth, even, long strokes up your calves and thighs.

I hope you have better results. It seems to me that your legs are too dry when you try to shave.

Hope this helps hon :)

Oh, one more thing that I may not have made clear.....

I shave my legs practically everyday. Sometimes I go a day or two without shaving because of whatever, but I normally shave everyday.

Shaving everyday is the key to success over time. One cannot just shave once in a while. That won't work. One must shave consistently everyday.

Brenda :)

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.
