make sure the area is exposed to something warm and damp. Either soak in a warm bath before shaving or soak area with a warm wet washcloth. This will open up the hair follicles. Per the actual manufactures of razors, there is no difference between the blaes used in either the mens or womens razors. More is better though XD.
Ever since i started using deodorant after I shaved I've noticed that if i do get the rash it doesn't itch.. at all and the next day my pussy feels like silk. Other than deodorant (any dry stick) shaving often will help this. I have been shaving well over a decade and shaving regularly is the best thing you can do to avoid this.
