Or I think there is a cream you can apply, I saw it in boots... Hope this helps!    Rose1 11-23-2009 @ 6:45 PM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2009 Did you manage to find the exfoliating glove? x    FARAH 11-24-2009 @ 8:19 AM                           reply Member Joined: Sep 2009 I used to have a problem with iungrown hairs, now I dont becuase i exfoliate everyday in the shower, hopefully the same will work for you Fa oCanada 01-07-2010 @ 12:32 PM                           reply Member Joined: Jan 2010 There's definitely a bottle of stuff you can apply topically - i cant remember the name, but i have a friend that used it. She got it from a beauty salon in toronto. You can put a warm compress on the area and put a sterilised needle in, to try and coax out the hair. But don't dig around or you'll damage the skin! then use tweezers to pluck it out. Put a dab of anticeptic on the area. I think tea tree oil is good. daisy52 01-07-2010 @ 5:13 PM                           reply Member Joined: Jan 2010 I onec got a really bad ingrown hair on my bikimi line and it turned into a bubble the size of a grape - i swear. didnt know what to do! was so embarrassed, couldnt sleep with my boyfirend til it was gone. it basically got infected coz i didnt do anything about it. bt then i went ot a professional salon and they took care of it for me. they said you;ve got to use a miniloofah all the time to exfoliate if ur waxing. it happens alot.
