What can I do?!

I've tried every hair removal technique known to man, except for laser. Waxing was not for me, I had the worst ingrown hairs afterwards despite following aftercare advice to the letter, shaving makes my skin so irritated, creams didn't rid me of all the hair so I was left patchy. I am at the point where I trim the main part of my pelvic area only, and shave the parts you'd see when wearing a swim suit. This has worked for a while, isn't my preferred but it is what it is.

In recent months I have started suffering with awful ingrown hairs again - not in the part I shave, but in the part I trim. I can't understand it. I don't go too short, I use clean, sharp scissors and a comb to ensure I don't Nick the skin at all (have been known for my clumsiness). They are relentless. I don't know how to get rid of them. They're unsightly, and just really unpleasant. I even tried to stop trimming and if anything they got worse. Has anyone got any advice please?

Little bump for the evening crew in case anyone has any advice for me, please!
