ingrown hairs
I need help. I keep getting ingrown hairs when I shave my legs. Does anyone else suffer from this and found anything to help prevent them? I don't mean razor burn, but when my hairs come back they end up as ingrown hairs.

Re: ingrown hairs
what I found has helped is, I exfoliate after shaving. I use a bath rag some body exfoliation scrub. I seem to get less bumps. HTH.

Re: ingrown hairs
I try and do my legs last when I'm in the shower b/c I feel like the steam plumps the hair and softens my skin, and I'm less likely to get ingrowns.

ingrown hairs
I frequently get one on my inner thigh and it HURTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! so painful. It gets big and purple..awful.
I have found no solution to preventing them.
I do use Desitin on it though after it pops up, and it eases the pain and makes it go away pretty quickly

ingrown hairs
I get them frequently along my bikini line. I started applying neosporin to the area after shaving and now I no longer get them.

Next time try Vicks vapor rub. I don't know why, but it works!

Re: ingrown hairs
The cause of ingrowns is dead skin cells growing on the hair follicles. Try and use a body scrub everytime you shower to help get rid of the dead skin.

Re: ingrown hairs
You might want to consider laser hair removal. It is awesome and will get rid of the problem all together!

Re: ingrown hairs
Ugh, I tried it at two different places and it made more hair grow in. Unfortunately for me, I am the % of fair skin and dark hair that it does not work on. I spent $$$$ on it too. Such a waist of money for me.
