Today, I tried shaving my bikini area for the first time. I ended up cutting myself several times. I now have impressive razor burn, and it's incredibly painful to even wear pants. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, it turned out the razor I used for manscaping wasn't as new and sharp as I'd thought. My entire crotch is now overcome with an unfathomable amount of razor burn. FML
Today, I shaved my legs for the first time in three weeks. It took half an hour, three disposable razors, and I cut my legs up so badly they look worse then they did when they were hairy. FML
Today, while shaving my nether regions, I slipped and sliced myself in three separate places. They won't completely stop bleeding. I'm virtually having a second period, and it hurts to close my legs. FML
Today, I accidentally cut myself with a razor blade on my toe. Not only does it sting really badly, but it reinforces the fact that I have abnormally hairy toes that need to be shaved. FML
Today, I was in a rush to get ready for work so I quickly shaved my legs. In my haste, I accidentally nicked myself in a very sensitive area and had to spend the day simmering in discomfort and checking my crotch every so often to make I wasn't bleeding through my pants. FML
Today, I decided to conquer my fear of blades, and tried shaving my legs with a razor. I sat on the side of my bathtub and wet my legs, but some of the water splashed. I slipped on it and fell back, hitting my head on the tile wall and slicing my leg open at the same time. FML
Today, my fiancé asked me to do some manscaping. I got a little overzealous and now I look like a 12-year-old boy with razor burn. FML
Today, I decided to take a relaxing shower. My face mask made my face break out in hives. While exfoliating, my nipples became chafed. Then I slipped and cut myself while shaving. FML
Today, I was going to bleach my bikini line, as I have not been able to shave there due to some ingrown hairs, and I also have to lifeguard every day. As it turns out, I'm allergic to the bleach. There is now an angry red, burning rash on my crotch that you can see around my swimsuit. FML
Today, I was shaving my underarms, when I heard a noise. I quickly turned my head to see what it was and got the razor caught in my hair. I'm now sporting a very attractive bald patch. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Try shaving cream next time.

If your razor was dull that could have caused it- otherwise you should invest in higher quality razors and shaving cream. Your comfort is worth a few more dollars.

From personal experience, a bad blade can really cause a lot of problems, maybe that was it. Ouch

yup. shaving cream. if its on the long side, try trimming first and go with the grain not against it (shave in the direction or the hairs growth) GL OP

Sorry but you should google this crap before grooming a sensitive area. I applaud your efforts, but it can be done without necessary pain. Better luck next time.

I understand how you feel. Try applying rubbing alcohol to your cuts and bumps. Also lightly apply an antibacterial ointment to them as well. Also clean off your razor with rubbing alcohol everytime before and after you shave down there. Also you might want to replace your razor if it's old. And you shaving cream if you haven't already. Personally, I have used acne treatment on the bumps down there and wash face one them as well in the shower. I do my best to treat them and keep them clean. No lies at all. I understand completely.

I just don't understand the alcohol part ...

OUCH rubbing alcohol?!

Acne stuff isn't going to do much since it isn't acne. You should really avoid putting most of that stuff in your general area. Yeast infections, UTIs, and BV aren't fun. And items such as rubbing alcohol and even treatment ca cause them.

rubbing alcohol may hurt but it cleans the skin and cuts. I am extremely careful when I treat the bumps and cuts.

The best way is to use either soap or shaving cream, and shave with the grain, the same way that the hair goes. then put on unscented deodorant after, it helps stop ingrown hairs. :)
