Follique - For Razor Bumps and Ingrown Hairs

According to Follique's website, many men and women with curly hair, including a large number of African Americans, suffer from razor bumps and ingrown hairs. Shaving curly hair actually increases the hair's curliness, causing it to grow back downward into the skin.

In men, the condition commonly affects the anterior neckline, the chin, and maxillary prominence of the cheeks. In women, the condition commonly affects the legs and bikini line area.

While Follique points out the only true cure is to not shave, they admit this is not a "viable option" for most.

Follique currently sells two types of lotions to treat razor bumps and ingrown hairs, both for $21.95 and both available at their website's store. They have a money-back guarantee, so you're really got very little to lose... except of course those annoying ingrown hairs.

I swear by COOCHY, you can get it at most intimate apparel shops, I personally buy mine at Lotions & Lace. Everyone I've turned on to COOCHY loves it, no rash, no burn and very smooth, I've had alot of guys who shave thier head ask to use my COOCHY!
