Shaving encourages ingrown hairs... if you must shave or wax... use some kind of loofah or scrub that stops the hair from turning in...

You'll find a lot of the gals here either don't shave or decide to "trim" (my choice)... if you're interested do a search, there is quite a bit of discussion as to people's various descisions...

Another trick I use is aftershave, after showers and def after a ride. It sometimes stings a little, but its worth it...
