Effectively Ending Razor Bumps!

Ending Razor Bumps for Good

After speaking with multiple experts in the field of dermatology I discovered that over 300 million people suffer from razor bumps. As many as 60% of African American men are affected, myself being one of them. That number was staggering, and added inspired me to find a solution.

Facts

Fact: Razor bumps are caused by ingrown hair.

Fact: There are two categories of bumps. (transfollicular and extrafollicular)

Transfollicular: In this case the hair is trapped beneath the skin, never exiting                         the epidermal layer of the skin.
                      (It requires patience, you must let the hair grow long enough to break the surface                               of the skin. In the meantime picking at it will only worsen the problem.)

Extrafollicular: In this case the hair has grown out of the follicle but curled back into                         the skin.

Fact: People with coarse and/or curly hair textures are 50% more likely to develop         razor bumps after shaving. They affect people with darker complexions,              because their hair is naturally more coarse.

Fact: Some people have curved hair follicles.
         The natural growth pattern forces hair to grow in towards the face, instead of           out and away.

Fact: On average a man will shave over 60,000 times or more in a lifespan.

Fact: The body builds up tolerance to medicated creams and lotions, making them less
         effective over time. The result can be a financial drain.
         A larger application of the product is needed, while delivering less visible results.

How can I combat razor bumps?

1. Look closely in the mirror and identify the natural growth pattern of your hair.

2. Always shave in the direction of your hair growth pattern.
This reduces the occurrence of razor bumps.

3. Never stretch the skin. (I.E. Do not tilt your head backward.)

This increases the likelihood the hair will be cut below the skin.

You should maintain a neutral position, always looking straight ahead.

3. Use a single blade razor or electronic clipper. (I use the Andis T-Outliner.)

Double bladed razors cut extremely close to the skin increasing your chances of razor bumps developing.

4. Use a hot towel to soften and relax the hair, while soothing your skin. (Post shave)

5. Use The BumpBan after you shave, and in between shaves to stay bump free.

The BumpBan

The BumpBan is designed to gently free in-grown hair on the surface. It is gentle, works quickly, and guarantees results. I have used this product for the last year and it has delivered every time. The logic is simple. Keep hairs from embedding back into the skin eliminates razor bumps. The BumpBan does just that. www.BumpBan.com

The Golden Rule

Stopping hair from re-entering the skin is the only way to stay razor bump free. By following this rule, you will attain a smoother appearance.

Look at the illustrations below.

These images will show you why bumps form. And how freeing trapped hair will prevent razor bumps.

The ingrown hair no different from a bee's stinger.(Above)

Once you remove the stinger the healing process begins. (Above)

Before & After The BumpBan

Once the in-grown hairs are freed, the bumps go away.

Keeping the hair freed is the key to a consistently smooth face.
