Red alert

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

wear shorts with your bathing suit... besides you supposed to test a small area of skin to see if you're allergic beforehand!

LOL whatttt? You'd rather bleach the hair then get it waxed/chemically removed? I would nottt put bleach there

I don't think it's that you're allergic to bleach so much as it is that bleaching an area that has ingrown hairs is probably as irritating as waxing it.....

YDI sooo much for not testing before hand, there is a reason they always say to do that before bleaching or dying anything.

Try to make it look like an angry smiley! :D

To everyone saying wear shorts: where I live, there is a specific swimsuit you MUST wear to lifeguard in, in which case she would not be allowed to wear a skirt/shorts. That may be the OPs case.

This is why they tell you to test in a small spot.

Next time, use Magic Shaving Powder. That stuff works, and works well. It's good if you want to go completely hairless, or if you're just looking to trim the hedge.

This is why you're supposed to test it on a small patch of skin first, like the directions say, but I'm still sorry.
