Epilation is a procedure that is familiar to every girl. Someone prefers to use the services of salon specialists, someone spends it at home, but in fact, and in another case, there may be such a problem as ingrown hair. Why it happens?
The reasons
As a rule, the main reason lies in the fact that shaving or alternative hair removal was performed with some irregularities, during which part of the hairs broke or bent. After some time, these hairs begin to grow, and their trajectory can be directed under the skin.
The areas that are subject to this problem are parts of the body with stiff hair. Ingrown hair can disturb both women and men, only locations differ. The representatives of the fair sex have a bikini area, armpits and legs (closer to the feet), and a strong one has a chin and neck.

If you find small, lonely reddening of the skin, small ulcers, sores or bumps in places with hard hair that you have recently cropped or epilate, most likely it is an ingrown hair.

- Be sure to treat the skin with an antiseptic. For this perfect alcohol, iodine, or at least an antiseptic that you use for washing hands. The most important thing is to clean the surface of the skin.
- Next, process the tool with which you plan this minor surgery. You can use not only antiseptic, but also fire.Just hold the tweezers or needle for a few seconds over the burner on your stove. When the tool cools, do not blow on it, just wait.
- Next you need to gently pry a hair in the direction of its growth and remove it.
- After completing the ceremony, treat the skin again with an antiseptic.
