Shouldn’t a person just use a depilatory to remove hair to prevent the formation of razor bumps(ingrown hairs)?

No. A common belief in this myth has resulted in many people using a depilatory, or other painful methods of hair removal on both the face and body in an attempt to prevent the formation of ugly inflamed ingrown hairs, skin bumps, and irritation. Depilatories are caustic on the skin requiring a neutralization of the active which essentially melts hair away at the skin surface. It can burn and damage your skin if used to often, and left on too long.
