I shave my pits, and when it grows back, the stubble makes my armpits itch like crazy! Heck, they even itch right after I shave them. And it's so irritating! What can I do to soothe the itch and make it go away?

That's what happens when you shave, sadly. Um, you could either stop all together or try some lotion maybe? Shave more often?

I use Dove deoderant and that has moisturizer in it and that seems to help a bit.

Some moisturizer can help. Apply it just after you shave and try to use a sharp razor.

Yeah. I get the same thing on my legs and I usually use lotion. It really helps.

Dove moisturizing deodorant really helps me when they itch. I've tried lotion too, but it's so wet, I didn't like it, but it works. If you cool your deodorant before you put it on, the cool feeling calms the itching down long enough for it to pass. The worst thing you can do is scratch....then it never ends.

Also if I shave everyday, under hot water with a very sharp (like a new venus) razor it helps with the irritation. Make sure that you aren't causing razor burn as that can cause itching too.
