My boyfriend tends to get ingrown hairs after shaving. Any advice?
Ingrown hairs result when the hair curls backward, penetrates the skin and produces red bumps that can be painful. One method to prevent them is to make sure your face is well hydrated before and during shaving. In addition, an exfoliating scrub containing alpha hydroxyl acids can help slough away dead skin cells, making it easier for the pore to stay open and the hair follicle to pop through. When pores are open, you can use Tweezerman’s Ingrown Hair Splintertweeze with surgically sharp elongated points that are specially designed for removing hairs under the skin.
