An excellent home remedy for ingrown hairs is to exfoliate the area with circular movements, this exfoliation will remove the most superficial layer of the skin, helping to untangle the hair.
However, in addition to exfoliation, it is also important to avoid wearing tight clothing immediately after hair removal, as it is one of the main causes of ingrown hairs.
- Mix the ingredients in a bowl until smooth.
- During bathing.
- Rub this mixture in the area with ingrown hairs and rinse with water.
- After bathing.
- You can also apply a moisturizer in place to make the skin more flexible and easier to pierce through the hair.
This exfoliation should be performed at least 2 to 3 times per week, and the results begin to be observed in the first week of use.
Do not try to untie the hair with tweezers or fingers, as the area may become inflamed, as the area around the hair redness, swells and hurts, just do the exfoliations and when the hair comes out remove it.
Also, while the hair is ingrown, avoid passing the knife or hair removal, as this will always make it difficult to untangle and remove the hair.
It is important to consult a dermatologist when the hair area becomes red, inflamed, hot, painful and pus-forming, as this may mean that the hair growth area has become infected.In these cases, the dermatologist usually prescribes an antibiotic in the form of ointment or pill and anti-inflammatory ointments.
