Ingrown hairs are known as Psuedofolliculitis Barbae (PFB), razor bumps, razor burn, hair bumps, shaving bumps, ingrown hairs.
Psuedofolliculitis Barbae refers to hair that has been cut or broken below the level of the skin, which then begins to grow through the surrounding tissue, rather than from the follicle.
In other cases, it twists and begins to grow back into the skin, causing irritation and inflammation.
If you shave the pubic area, you remove the tapered end, and as it grows without this tapered end, sharpness literally cuts off the skin around the hair follicle.
Use these simple precautions to minimize discomfort from ingrown pubic hair:
# 1
For ingrown pubic hairs along the bikini line, keep a hot compress against ingrown spots for ten minutes three times a day to soften the skin and help the hair to go outside.
# 2
Put on loose underwear and clothes until the blows disappear to avoid friction.
# 3
Some consider it useful to peel off the area before waxing. This removes some of the dead skin cells in the upper layer of skin cells, which often helps to trap hair.
Exfoliating options include creams, lotions or body gels, a slightly abrasive towel wash, or a glove specifically designed for exfoliating. Check on the beauty counter in the local store.
# 4
Do not peel off the skin if you already have ingrown pubic hair, as this may lead to further skin irritation.
# 5
With wax, do not forget to pull the hair out of the roots. Do not allow hair to break beneath the surface of the skin.
# 6
Use specially designed processing (see below). It is a pubic ingrown hair and eliminates existing ingrown hair within a few days.
Additional note: For ingrown hairs that are deep, sterilize a pair of iglopravlyaemyh tweezers with rubbing alcohol and individually pick up every ingrown hair from his follicle. Wipe the area with alcohol after shaving.
If the needle nose tweezers are unavailable, wipe the pin or needle and the ingrown area with alcohol, then gently release the hair in the direction in which it grows, using the needle tip. After letting the hair go, rub the skin with alcohol again.
