Bump Patrol

Listen to this man. I had them in the crease on the back of my head. I used Bump Stopper 2 and they were gone in days.

Apple Cider Vinegar. Rub it on your face, chin, throat area

Zinc helps as well

Pick one of the following:

1) Find a job where you don’t have to shave

2) Use a hot towel with a single blade razor

4) Only shave with a trimmer

5) Tell them you have a medical problem

Witch hazel immediately after.


Also spray your razor with stericide. I have terrible skin and this helps.

Black folk ain’t supposed to “clean shave” shave, bruh.

Quick fix: bump stopper like breh said.

longterm fix: get a black dermatologist.

That’s your body saying this isn’t supposed to be done

Exfoliate before and maybe the day after you shave.
Shaving cream needs to be thoroughly rubbed INTO the skin, not just on top of it. Take your time doing this.
Make sure you're using a clean razor. And find a razor that works for your skin. You'll go through a lot of them before you find what's right.

Also I never really had much luck with the bump stopper but Tend Skin absolutely changed my life. Use it right after a shave and maybe a couple more times over the next couple of days and you're good.

It’s only one piece of advice you need. Don’t put a razor to your face

Also, why are you going clean shaven for an interview? Go in with your beard like a real man. Nicely groomed of course

I like to add a little Savlon (I think the closest US equivalent may be Germolene? idk) to my face cream for the first few days after I shave.
