All bleeding stops: All bleeding stops sometimes! Old medical school joke. As with any cut, apply pressure for up to 10 minutes. If it doesn't stop, get medical attention. Keep any cut clean and watch for signs of infection. Bacitracin causes less skin reactions than neosporin. Make sure your tetanus is up to date. You could hardly wait to get public hair proving that you were approaching adulthood, why cut if off

NO: NO its OK to have some nicks and bleed from shaving. Try to keep the area clean you can put some vaseline on the cuts a a barrier protection to the skin

Should be ok: There is no reason for worry - small cuts after shaving are common. Be sure to keep the area clean. See a doctor if the bleeding doesnt stop.
