Shave in a warm shower (if possible) and whatever you do, don't shave against the grain. I shave in the opposite direction to my thighs, starting with the outer edges where my tights end -- so, I shave sideways, kinda. If trimming helps you, maybe do that in a bathroom stall for more privacy. Use plenty of shaving gel and let it sit for a while. After you're done, put some deodarant on the area you shaved -- for some reason people have never really heard about it, but it works really well to prevent irritation, etc.
Oh, also, don't go over a single area more than twice with a razor blade, as you can really irritate it.
