Ingrown Hairs

Posted by Sandy
December 11, 2006

An ingrown hair is a hair that hasn’t broken through the surface of the skin through the hair shaft opening. Instead, it continues to grow under the skin surface. When this happens, bacteria, pus, and dead skin cells get trapped along with the hair. The result is an inflammed bump.

First and foremost, refrain from picking at ingrown hairs. You could create bigger problems, such as infection and scarring. Instead, apply salicylic acid (BHA) to the ingrown hair with a Q-tip. An effective product for ingrown hairs is Tend Skin, which is available at salons and beauty supply shops. If you seem to get a lot of ingrown hairs, wait about three days after hair removal, then dip a cotton pad in a salicylic product and apply to the area.

At any time, you can use a plastic net or natural loofah to gently exfoliate the area. You can also dry brush the area before your bath or shower.

    Sometimes there are shaving pre treatments that will straighten out the hair before shaving.
