Use the WIZKER ingrown hair brush as directed.Shaving is a simple way to deal with unwanted facial and body hair, so that you can have smooth skin. There are two types: chemical exfoliation (AHA, BHAs) and physical exfoliation (beads, coffee scrubs, gloves, brushes).

Whether you shave, sugar, wax or epilate, not enough exfoliation to remove excess layers of skin can lead to ingrown hairs. Newly shaved hair follicles need room to grow up. Wait 2 hours then moisturize.Īt least for the first day or two, try to avoid tight fitting clothing around the Adam’s apple (neck) and/or below the waistline region. Sure your skin will be a little dry at first but this is a temporary tradeoff. Promote healing by proper shaving techniques followed by 70% rubbing alcohol which kills any bacteria that may enter those micro cuts created from the shave and prevents the onset of razor burn. If your objective is smooth, bump-free skin following a shave or wax, then right after hair removal allow the skin to heal first. After a shave, keep your skin bare let the tiny army breath, and allow those newly shaved, microscopic hairs to grow out just in time for the next shave. Provided your skin can handle these alternatives try waxing, depilatory, lasering or an epilator.Īvoid using skin/pore clogging creams or lotions since they keep hairs from growing up. The results are not super close but no one but you will know the difference. This rule is hard to follow, especially if you have to be beardless for your job…but if you are prone to ingrowns, try hair removal with electric clippers (the barber kind of clippers). Always shave like you might cause damage, not like you’re mowing the front lawn.Īvoid shaving too often. One pass per hairy area – going 1-2 inches downward at a time – will prevent ingrown hairs. Pressing hard is the main cause of shaving irritation! Be gentle so as to prevent the hair from being cut so low that it falls beneath the top layer of skin.Īvoid too many quick passes with the blade. The hair stubble should literally fall away with little or no pressure from the blade. If you follow STEP #3, then a gliding, light touch is all you need. Confirm this by doing a face/ body inspection to see which way your hair grows.Īvoid pressing too hard on the skin with the blade. Shave in the direction of hair growth…it’s usually downwards. Shaving against the grain (upwards) may get you a closer shave but doing so also increases ingrowns. Then apply the shaving cream leaving it on for at least 2 minutes to really soften the hair. Wash or steam the skin for 2 to 3 minutes with warm water. Plus, more blading the skin leads to micro cuts through which bacteria is more likely to enter and this leads to razor burn. More blades equal more passes causing the hair to fall beneath the skin and become ingrown.

Pro Tip: even brand new blades still need to be cleaned.Īvoid too many blades! If you are prone to ingrown hairs then you don’t need 3 or more blades.
