Hello!

Treating ingrown hairs – Every time I get brazilian waxes I always get really bad ingrowns that take months to get out. How do you stop ingrowns and what is a quick solution to removing them?

  • Ooowwww, they can be so painful and certainly unsightly. Maybe avoid Brazilians? Or have the ingrown hairs removed another way before a Brazilian.? I’m unsure


  • I want to try the creme from the chemist.


  • Thanks everyone, I needed an anwer here aswell.


  • there are some good comments here


  • you have to do a hard exfoliation this will avoid this problem


  • thank you for the suggestions!


  • Skin doctors INGROW GO is the best product I have ever used. You can get it from chemists and beauty stores. I have used it for years as I do suffer from ingrown hairs in all areas I shave or wax. Let me know how you go!


  • U need to moisturise and exfoliate


  • getting rid of one hairy problem leads to another, ouch, ask your beautician.


  • Some good advice there below.


  • they used to say to exfoliate before the wax but I agree with the other answers and would ask your beautician


  • Ouch! I’d be asking my beautician for advice


  • Hope the answers below have helped.


  • I’d ask where you are getting it done as they might have some good suggestions


  • i use tweezers sometimes :)
