Hey, just signed up and had a question in response to the bumps on the legs topic. I have bumps on my thighs and legs and I had seen that someone said to shave in the direction of the hairs, which would be down, so by doing so that should help get rid of them? Because if there's nothing I can do to make this go away was going to see a Dermatologist. So if anyone knows for sure that this could help, please let me know asap. Thanks! : )

I have the same problem, and today got it checked out, it's probably inflammation and irritation of the hair that you shave. Use a sharp razor not a dull one, and keep it moisturized.

Hello,
As jaime90 stated, always use a clean, sharp razor and make sure you thoroughly rinse your razor between strokes. To add to her answer, make sure you exfoliate 1-2 times a week depending on your skin type. The inflammation and irritation could be caused by razor usage, the products you use, or build up of dead skin cells (where the exfoliation would help). A great easy access exfoliator is sugar and a light oil (grapeseed which you can usually find at the local drug store).
