Title: witch hazel?
Post by: hipstersaint on July 07, 2010, 11:26:05 AM

I have been having wicked razor burn/ bumps  on the back of my head for a few months now.... I use the headblade with a variety of shave creams... will witch hazel help? or  ClearHead? or should I use a 'sharper' razor like the fusion or mach 3?

Witch hazel, hydrogen peroxide or a non-oily astringent lotion for acne might help.  Also, wash a couple of times a day w/ a mild anti-bacterial soap, like Cuticura, and change your pillowcases often.  Keeping it clean will help keep it clear.

I buy the cheap bottle of Witch Hazel at Wal-Mart.  $1.48 a bottle.  Can't beat it.
