Always shave at night, skin is less puffy. Soak for a few minutes to soften hairs. Use a good new sharp razor. Stretch the skin while you shave to get nice and close. When you have ingrowns, get them out with a good pair of tweezers.

There is a product called Tend Skin that can be used by men or woman that is good for ingrown hairs--prevention and maintenance. You can buy it at Sephora or on-line.

Use an antibacterial bar. To help clear up the inflammation, wash the ingrown hair area twice a day with a Panoxyl bar, an antibacterial soap of 10 percent benzoyl peroxide found at your local drugstore.



Dab on some cortisone cream. Apply an over-the-counter hydrocortisone preparation such as Cortaid around the ingrown hair according to package directions. It will soothe any inflammation and speed healing.



Change your blade. If ingrown hairs are inflamed and infected, change your razor blade each time you shave until the ingrown hair is gone. Otherwise, you can reinfect yourself.



As for preventing future problems, as with many skin problems, preventing an ingrown hair is fairly simple. Here's what I suggest. :)



Shave, don't wax. If you're prone to ingrown hairs, remove unwanted hair by shaving rather than waxing.



Waxing is traumatic. It rips out your hair at an angle. When the hair grows back, it grows back at the same angle instead of growing straight up, piercing the side of the hair follicle instead of reaching the opening on the surface of your skin.



Moisten hair. Try to protect your hair follicles by keeping a barrier of moisture between you and the blade. You can use the expensive foams and gels if you like, but a mild soap like Cetaphil will also do the job. :))
