I've been shaving my bikini line for years now, but over the past few months I've been getting horrible razor burn. I've tried several different razors, I've tried soaking in the bath tub for a while, even different shaving creams. Nair made my skin raw and bloody after three minutes, so I'd like to avoid that. I guess my question is this: why has my skin become so sensitive?

My friend once waxed her bikini line and said that she had bruises down there for weeks. If I go ahead and buy it, might wax be the solution? I'm just so scared that as soon as I use the wax the same stupid red bumps will come back and by the time they go away the hair will already be growing back. What's the best brand? Are there any specifically designed for sensitive skin?
