What does an ingrown hair look like?

Almost everyone is affected by these tiny hairs that do not pierce the skin and therefore continue to grow under the skin. Some have to do with it very seldom, others again and again. Those who are blessed with curly or very thick hair often know the problem particularly well. The hair lies beneath the skin, which is why small bumps or pimple-like redness often form. It can be itchy or even painful. If the hair root becomes inflamed, it can even lead to an abscess with pus formation.

Why hair grow in after shaving or epilation

Normally hair grows straight out of the skin and doesn't cause any problems. If the hair follicle in which the hair root is located runs at an angle to the skin, ingrown hairs can quickly develop. Curly hair can also grow into the skin. Ingrown hairs are particularly common after waxing or epilation. Sometimes these methods move the follicle so that the hair then grows out of it at an angle. Increased friction due to clothing that is too tight can also lead to ingrown hairs. Sensitive skin areas such as the armpits and bikini line are particularly often affected. In men, ingrown hairs often appear on the face or neck.

 

Ingrown hairs: This helps against it

The most effective method of preventing ingrown hairs is to stop depilating the affected parts of the body. Of course, this is often easier said than done: we have got used to depilating the skin and don't want to stop because of some unruly hairs. So if you want to keep shaving your legs or waxing your bikini line, you can still tackle the ingrown hairs.

Warm compresses are effective but gentle. To do this, put a fresh washcloth in hot water and then press it on the affected part of the body. You should repeat this process for ten minutes. The pores open up and both the hair and skin become a little softer. After repeated use, a slight reddening forms. Then you can very carefully prick the skin at the affected area with a disinfected needle and pull the hair out of the skin.

This is how you can prevent the hair from growing in

But it would be best, of course, that the pimples and redness would not arise in the first place. However, the following tips and measures for hair removal can prevent this:

Is there a health hazard?

The beauty problem can also present serious difficulties. If the hair becomes infected, you need to consult a doctor. Untreated inflammation can turn into an abscess in the surrounding tissue that also forms pus. Harmless ingrown hair can expand to the point of blood poisoning. It is therefore extremely important to exercise hygiene and cleanliness when dealing with ingrown hairs. If the method with the sterile needle is too unsure for you, you should simply leave the ingrown hair alone. Most of the time it pops up under the skin by itself.
