Get Rid Of Ingrown Hairs

Ingrown hair is hair that grows into the skin instead of outward. Ingrown hairs can be itchy, painful and cause redness and swelling. It is the most painful state of skin condition, due to ingrows your skin will feel like as if constant spikes are pinching everywhere, you will suffer extreme itching which will remain constant and seems never-ending, even you will not get the solution regarding this, as there is nothing which can assist you if you are uninformed.

What are Ingrows: 

Ingrown hair is hair that grows into the skin instead of outward. Hair removal method especially shaving cause ingrown hairs, If you are using razor then get ready for the ingrown hairs! the razor companies will never warn you about this skin condition but this is the only and only reason for the ingrown hairs which often results in itchy, painful red bumps similar to pimples on the areas where you have used the razor. These are sometimes pus-filled. Sites can eventually become infected, show skin colour change or scarring from scratching and picking. If you notice signs of possible infection, contact your doctor.

Who suffers from Ingrows:

Those who are using the razor for a long time can end up with ingrown hairs anywhere you shave with a razor. With that said, they most often occur in areas with thick, coarse hair such as your armpits and your bikini area, legs etc. This is because cut hairs can more easily curl back into the skin when the hair is dense and curly. When hair re-grows it can grow to the side and into the skin, rather than straight outwards past the skin’s surface.

How to Remove Ingrown hairs :

If you are already suffering from ingrown hairs then you may be knowing the pain and irritation it causes, it can not be removed from the root as this condition erupts due to prolonged use of the razor. But exfoliation of skin can help getting rid of this condition. If you have sterilized tweezers or pin then try to pick it over, as I basically used a toothpick in my case so I would suggest using toothpick was amazing. But after picking it out never reuse razor, instead use trimmer or epilator on the areas where you have got ingrown hairs if you go for waxing then also the same condition will recur, so better not to go for even waxing or threading.

What to do so that Ingrown hairs can never appear:

Only one thing you have to remember if you don’t want this condition on your skin! Never use Razor, no matter it is either designed for women or men, all are the same prolonged use of Razor will create this situation and you will suddenly sense extreme itching on the areas where you have used  razor. 

 

How to get rid of this condition :

Although this condition can never be rooted out but few precautions can heal it

• Avoid shaving the area with ingrown hairs until they have time to heal, I would rather say use trimmer or epilator on the areas where you have ingrown hairs, do not go for waxing even, as after waxing also the same thick hair will remerge to cause the chances of ingrown hairs.
• Soak the area in warm water or apply a warm towel for a few minutes.
• Try exfoliating to remove any loose dead skin, which can block the ingrown hair from breaking through the skin’s surface.
• Apply a non-greasy moisturizer to help heal dry skin and remove any dead cells.
• If you see the hair break through, try to gently pull it out with a pair of sterile tweezers.
• See a dermatologist to get a prescription for an antibiotic if an ingrown hair gets infected.
