Ingrown hairs on the body should not in any case be ignored. Slight inflammation - it's flowers from the fact that they can guarantee you.
A lot of ingrown hairs formed after shugaring. Perhaps this is his great and serious disadvantage to waxing. Then no matter how hard master - ingrown hair is inevitable.
There are several types of ingrown hairs. I have a rough classification because by ingrown hairs any scientific classification does not exist here already operates observations masters and from my own experience.
Pantyhose (flat) Hair
This type of ingrown hairs, we can say the least dangerous. Hair grows under the thin layer of skin, inflammation itself is not. Even I will say this: at first glance you can not tell if the hair is under the skin, because it is completely visible, but does not move.
Most of these ingrown hair on our legs and thighs, sometimes in the bikini area.
Eliminate easily, you can use any cream with AHA acids. Do not even have to go to the salon, you can remove and home safely.

folded hair
The most common, you definitely notice it in his hands. There are two types:
1) in the form of black dots, a bit like a black point in the face area if their squeeze - tip of hair appears;
2) bump with pus and a little inflammation around it.
Rolled into a black dot ingrown hair can be removed without problems: push or walk quite a bit of sugar paste (but it is better to press, sugar scrubs are still slightly injure the skin).
It so happens that the hump because of ingrown hairs and a dense without visible papules. Here it is better to not pick, it will only get worse and fester. We have to go with a dermatologist.
With ulcers ingrown hairs are dangerous because the pus can get into the lymph nodes and then walk around the blood. Ideal if a dermatologist will open gently, and to cleanse these affected areas. But if you do not want to go to the doctor and lover of all to cope on their own at home, then help you Star 2% salicylic acid, acne remedy which contain zinc, ihtiolovaya ointment and azeloinovaya acid. It's all being sold freely in pharmacies without prescription.
In home care while eliminating folded hair always recommend treating the inflamed area with lemon lotion, there is just a part of salicylic acid is present.
If the rolled hair appeared after shugaring, then eliminate them only a day after the depilation. Very good it will be for you, if you do not pick, but simply to grease rolled hair long until the hair itself will not overcome the stratum corneum (typically, it takes him about two weeks).
hair bites
Now we come to the more serious types of ingrown hairs.
Due to incorrect initial position or displacement of the hair follicle of hair can not pass through the stratum corneum and strive to grow into the skin.
Inflammation is thus formed stronger than the rolled hair. In this type of ingrown hairs it is strictly forbidden to use scrubs.
You need to solve two problems in this case:
1) reduce inflammation;
2) after removal of inflammation work with hyperkeratosis.
The above two problems peacefully solve any lotion against ingrown hairs, which includes lemon.
Hair growing in the dermis
Here we come to the most dangerous type of ingrown hairs. Such hair close all the way greasy streams and in the dermis begin to accumulate bacteria and produced severe inflammation.
The situation is compounded so that the required invasive procedures a dermatologist or beautician.
In home care can only help remedy against ingrown hairs with AHA acids: it gently exfoliate, soothe the skin a little bit and it moisturizes deeply. With this business you can not hesitate, otherwise expenditure you have in any case be added trip to the beautician dermatologist for removal of the ingrown hair.
And remember the cardinal rule for skin care after shugaring:
Inflammation is not present - it is possible to use scrubs. There is inflammation - an ointment, funds from ingrown hairs, but in any case not be picked up until the inflammation disappears.
