Comments: Hair ingrowth is really very bad. Hands look very ugly when hair ingrowth takes place. It is better to take steps to prevent it before it takes place. I feel that regular exfoliation of your hands and legs after they are waxed, is a better way to stay away from hair ingrowth. I feel that facial scrub is a good alternative for exfoliation of hands and legs. It is very dangerous to shave on dry skin. I always wash my hands and legs with warm water so that the hair becomes soft before waxing or shaving. It gives good results for shaving or waxing skin.

Comments: I am facing problem of in growing hair because of waxing. The above given suggestions are good. Especially exfoliating skin regularly is a good option. This problem of in growing hair is observed only after I started waxing my hands. I wax my legs occasionally but I do not find any such problem on my legs. Does it happen because of frequently waxing hands? Are there any chances of accumulation of pus in it? I have not done any thing before to get rid of it? Will I face any risk because of it? I am waxing my hands since one year. I used to do it after every month. I find it good because I have observed that the hair growth on my hand has reduced. Will I face any problem if I continue doing it monthly?

Comments: Do men face problem of hair ingrowth when they shave their beard? If yes why it is not a big issue, if it can create so much of problems for men. All men do shave, so how do they overcome this problem. In fact the facial skin is more sensitive than the skin on hands and legs so how do men avoid hair ingrowth? I have never come across any man talking about hair ingrowth problem in my life. If they shave they will definitely face this problem some day or the other. Also I can not find any products specifically for preventing or getting rid of hair ingrowth. Can you mention some of the products for the same purpose?

Comments: I have a problem with vaginal hair. I am 20 and still a virgin but my vaginal hair really irritates me and makes me feel untidy and unclean even after showers. I use veet to remove them sometimes but the very next day they start to grow back and at the same time scared to go through the waxing pains. What can I do to remove them completely or at least to decrease the amount of hair I have there?. Thank you
