Best products/routine for ingrown hairs?

Hey all! I was wondering if anyone has any good tips or product/routine recommendations for ingrown hairs? I get them really bad on my bikini line and I've been struggling to prevent and treat them.

As of right now I use a plastic exfoliating brush, sliick by Salon Perfect, Truly cooka concentrate ingrown serum, and a Gillete venus razor.

I've tried other products too (Fur oil, Billie razor, Tend Skin) and while they all seem to help, none of them mitigate the problem completely and I still struggle with ingrowns.

Re: Best products/routine for ingrown hairs?

@NoraGreen  Props to you - you've definitely tried hard to fix this issue! However, the best solution is simply not to shave so closely. Leave a tiny bit of hair above the skin, by shaving with the direction of hair growth instead of against it. This generally prevents ingrown hairs because the hair stays above the opening to the follicle.

 

There is a product on the Sephora website called Topicals High Roller Ingrown Hair Tonic with AHA and BHA 1.7 oz/ 50 mL that you could also try, if you want to stick to a close shave at your bikini line. I haven't tried it, but it has good reviews.

 

Hope this helps. Good luck!
