Spots Underarm

Everytime I shave underarm, spots come up and take forever to move. At first I though it was because I didn't moisturise, but it wasn't that. Then I though it was because I have sensitive skin so i changed the shaving foam to sensitive skin, but they still come up. I was wandering if anyone had any suggestions in how to prevent these spots?

it's prob just an ingrown hair/inflamed follicle.

don't shave too much though....waxing is a better idea cos it doesn't break the skin the way shaving does

Wax instead, like strawberry said, or start exfoliating, that should get rid of any dead skin cells, so if it is ingrowing hairs, it should clear up.

Try not shaving until they clear up, use plenty of moisturiser until its back to normal, and if you want to wax, try that instead of shaving :smile:

If you don't dare having your armpits waxed, invest in a good razor, not a disposible or anything like that, use plenty of shaving foam, and plenty of moisturiser afterwards.
