Ingrown Hairs: Long-Lasting Treatment and Prevention
Of course, having ingrown hairs on your skin can be very discomforting especially since it usually comes with swollen bumps that hurt most times.
Now the question is, ever suffered from ingrown hairs so long that you have already lost hope in finding long-lasting treatment for it? Then, you may have bumped into the right page.
In this article, we will be outlining everything you need to know about in-grown hair, its causes, symptoms, and recommended treatments. Knowing this, understanding the specific causes of in-grown can give you a clearer picture of how best to prevent it.
So, what do you say? Let’s deep-dive into this issue already.
What Are Ingrown Hairs?
Ingrown hairs are regarded as strands of hair that usually grow back into the skin after shaving, waxing, or tweezing. They usually come with slightly painful itchiness and swollen bumps around the affected skin area. Most times, they occur around the face, armpits, legs, or pubic area.
Usually, when they develop, you may notice small round bumps known as papules or small bumps filled with pus known as pustules around the skin areas. Furthermore, these skin areas may also turn darker thereby forming hyperpigmentation.
However, it’s quite important to note that some people have more tendency to develop in-grown hair than others. For instance, people with curly and thick hair tend to see more ingrown hairs in their lifetime than individuals with thin hair. This also applies to the pubic region. Ingrown hairs are referred to as razor bumps or shaving in some cases.
General Symptoms of Ingrown Hairs
Symptoms of ingrown hairs include skin irritation, slight pain, itchiness, small bumps called papules or pustules, skin discoloration (brown, red, purple), inflammation, and so on.
The bumps will get bigger and more painful if the ingrown hairs become infected. If not properly treated, afterward the infection may cause scars around the area.
Common Causes Of Ingrown-Hairs
Usually, activities that involve removing hair from the skin through shaving, tweezing, or waxing are known to cause ingrown hairs.
In the body system, new hairs grow out from hair follicles underneath the skin. Now, cutting off these hairs through shaving, tweezing, or waxing only removes the strands on the surface but it doesn’t remove the hair follicles. So, when these new hairs wish to grow again from the follicle, they may curl and grow back into the skin leading to ingrown hairs.
Interestingly, when this happens, the body will react to the ingrown hairs as a foreign substance. Hence, you may start experiencing symptoms like itchiness, bumps, redness, and swelling.
Our Professional Treatment And Recommendation
For long-lasting treatment against ingrown hairs and possible infections that may come with it, we highly recommend our Ingrown Hair Kit
This special kit contains the Bleach Cream Soap and the Ingrown Hair Gel. The bleach cream soap specializes in cleansing the ingrown hair-infected part of your skin while the Ingrown Hair gel cleans and prevents the painful bumps caused by ingrown hairs.
Additionally, this special hair gel also unclogs the hair follicles from dead skin layers which may have blocked them. And then redirects the hair growth to grow in the normal direction.
All you have to do is, cleanse the shaved or waxed part of your skin with the cream soap and then apply the Ingrown hair gel to reduce the formation of bumps and ingrown hairs.
Then, apart from using our kit, we recommend not pulling or picking on your ingrown hairs as this may cause infection. Don’t squeeze or pop bumps. Also, avoid digging under the skin. If you wish to remove the hair, please do it gently.
For prevention of ingrown hairs, we recommend using shave creams or gel when shaving especially on sensitive areas like the pubic region. You may also consider hair removal creams instead of using a shaving razor. But if you do use a razor, go for a single-bladed razor. And then, don’t use one particular razor for a long time.
