what's the best way to keep a bikini line neat and tidy? I've tried some things in the past but then always start to itch terribly when the hair barely starts to grow back.

I haven't quite figured it out myself...sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't itch for me...I think your body gets used to it after a while though, as mine isn't soo bad as it used to be...I just use a razor and good cream...
I couldn't image waxing!!

I use this and a good razor (mack III) I think... it is a mens razor w/3 blades. Make sure your water is real warm and keep it kind of wet during the shaving.... that softens the skin and allows that SMOOTH shave... that really helped me...stop the regrowth itch....I also use good old hand lotion (none scented), after skin is dry and repeat the next few days.... I just learned that from trial & error.
GOOD LUCK!!

I also like to use this: Tend Skin I have super sensitive skin, and this helps with the irritation.

This stuff is supposed to be really good. I must get round to getting some!

Thank you for all your suggestions. Yesterday I got some of that "Skintimate" shaving gel for sensitive skin and tried it last night. Worked pretty good....

Does that stuff really work Mags? I have super-sensitive skin too, and man, both my pits and bikini line would be kissing you if it worked.... not that you'd want that
The only thing I've found that doesnt irritate my bikini line is an electric razor, but that doesn't get a close shave like a disposable razor... but close enough, and I don't have to deal with the annoying razor bumps. And its a little tougher to navigate...

LOL - This amused me for some reason.
I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who doesn't itch very often when I shave. I did find out last weekend that if I use a men's razor (had a free sample LOL), I got a VERY close and smooth shave. Just used normal shaving gel and went slowly.
