Ingrown hairs? Aint’s nobody got time for that! Sometimes I feel like the beauty gods are lingering in my head and listening to my every thought. This past weekend I quickly shaved my legs and bikini line for an impromptu outing. As I slipped on my swimsuit I couldn’t help but notice little dark bumps along my bikini line. (Insert: Annoyance, embarrassment and being kinda grossed out!)

I decided to just shake if off because there really wasn’t much I cold do about it at the moment, but fast-forward to a few days late and… they’re still there and I want them gone! Have you every been in this predicament? Well, I think I’ve found a solution to our problems, B&B friends!

Check out these fab preventative tips from Kimberly Sampson, National Training Director for emerginC.

  • Exfoliate skin 1-2 days prior to shaving or waxing. Exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells, oil and debris that may get trapped into hair follicles.
  • Shave in the direction of hair growth.
  • Apply soothing aloe, botanical oils and/or tea extracts to skin after shaving, waxing to help prevent skin irritation and ingrowns.
  • Natural and organic antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients such as tea tree help prevent ingrown hairs and razor bumps.
  • Apply products with tea tree oil 1-3 days after shaving/waxing to prevent ingrown hairs.

Kimberly recommends these products from the emerginC line to help you combat ingrown hairs:
