I've always struggled with razor bumps and am on the lookout for alternative shaving methods that could help reduce this issue. Reading about shaving powders has certainly piqued my interest, especially since they claim to remove hair without the use of a razor. However, I'm concerned about the chemical aspect and potential skin irritation. Has anyone here transitioned from traditional shaving to using shaving powders? I'm curious about your experiences particularly regarding the effectiveness and any skin reactions you might have encountered. Also, how does the long-term use of such chemical depilatories impact skin health? Any insights or personal anecdotes would be greatly appreciated as I weigh the pros and cons of trying out a shaving powder.

I switched to shaving powders due to razor bumps. While they reduced my ingrown hairs, I had to be cautious of irritation. Definitely patch test first!
