For ingrown hair, you can use a loofah or a "body brush", do regularly

Re: how to exfoliate?

These days Jergens and a few other brands are advertising "shave minimizing" lotions for legs. u may want to try that on a daily basis on your arms and legs. i know i used to use the Suave brand version of it a while back and DID actually notice my hair look finer and lighter after about 4 weeks of use. come to think of it, i dont know why i ever stopped using it? its time to go back to it!!!

Exfoliate using a "loofah" and scrub in circular motions to release the hair.. exfoliate before u wax. To minimize hair-growth.. soak a piece of phitkari, "alum" and apply it over the area right after a wax.

Thanks gina but what is "phitkari" and where can I find it? Please explain I detail

Gina, What is good for facial hair. Threading or waxing?

JP, threading is better in the long run.. wax/sugaring attaches itself to the skin and tugs on it..the friction causes pigmentation and loose/lax skin later-on.

Threading is safer.. however more painful. For the sides of u're face u should just bleach.

IPL laser hair removal is excellent for slowing the hair growth and making it thinner. It even gets rid of hair completely in some areas of the body.

There's a ingrown product sold by skin doctor which I find is great for using on the legs for getting rid of ingrown hairs after waxing. But you can use it on the face as well.
