Minor Folliculitis after shaving?

Any guys or gals out there know a good way to prevent folliculitis after shaving. You know those little white spots that almost look like pimples. I practically dont shave at all and just use a trimmer because of those. I believe mine are caused by iratation (like most people's) and not by bacteria or fungi. If your answer works ill love you forever!

Prevention

Although it's not always possible to prevent folliculitis, these measures may help keep you infection-free:

Avoid constricting clothing. Tight clothes 鈥?especially jeans and athletic wear 鈥?may be stylish, but make sure they don't chafe your skin.
Shave with care. Use an electric razor or a new blade every time you shave. Be especially careful to keep the shaved area clean and to avoid cuts and nicks. If you're a woman who gets frequent infections, you may want to consider depilatories or other methods of hair removal.
Maintain hot tubs. If you own a hot tub, clean it regularly and add chlorine when recommended. Use commercial tubs only if you're sure they're well maintained.

Self-care

Mild cases of folliculitis often respond well to home care. The following suggestions may help relieve discomfort, speed healing and prevent the infection from spreading:

Apply a warm, moist washcloth or compress to the affected area.
Try an oatmeal lotion or an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to help soothe itchy skin.
Gently wash the infected skin twice a day with antibacterial soap or apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment.
Avoid shaving irritated skin. If you must shave, use an electric razor rather than a blade, and apply a soothing after-shave lotion when you're finished.
To help a boil or carbuncle burst and drain more quickly, apply a soft cloth soaked in warm salt water to the affected area for about 30 minutes several times a day. Prepare the salt water by adding 1 teaspoon of salt to 1 quart of boiling water. Let cool until comfortably warm.
Don't share your towels or washcloths, and launder them in plenty of hot, soapy water after every use. Wash clothes that cover the affected areas after each wearing.
