Question: i have in growth hairs on my legs can a exfoliation helps?

Exfoliation may help with softening and smoothing your skin's texture however, it would not necessarily prevent ingrown hairs. Become pro-active. You may need to find a topical solution that is applied to the skin to prevent future ingrown hair growth. There are several on the market. May I suggest Tend Skin.

Ingrowing hairs not only unsightly but can lead to other issues too, like spots, infection, exfoliation will help you can do it yourself or get it done while having a leg massage interesting, practical and relaxing.

There are numerous ways you can help treat in grown hairs. I would recommend you try one of the following. Dry brushing, exfoliating with a granualar or salt scrub or u could use a topical product that has AHA in, but if using AHA please be sure not go in the sun or use a sun protection factor over it. If you decide to go with one of the first two dont forget to use a good moisturiser as I find this to be the best combination, often clients exfoliate but forget to help keep the skin soft and supple with cream that will help prevent the future build up of dry skin cells that can cause the hairs to become trapped under them. Good luck and try do to one of these options as regularly as possible.

Yes exfoliation can help, as can laser hair removal which will treat the problem entirely as you will have no more hairs!

Hello Vera,

Sorry for the delay in my response.

Can I ask what form of depilation (hair removal) you use:
- Shaving?
- Cream?
- Waxing?


Shaving & Creams
Shaving produces the most probability of ingrown hairs, with creams close behind.

This is because these forms of depilation do not remove the hair from the root & the blunt end of the hair often can’t find its normal path back out to the world.

Shaving also encourages a thicker coarser hair re-growth, whilst the chemicals used in creams may cause skin irritation, discoloration, burning or scarring.


Waxing
If you’re waxing your legs & still getting ingrown hairs, Id ask if you exfoliated 24hours after your treatment?

Again, as the hairs try to find their natural path back to the outside world, they may sometimes get lost, which can cause ingrown hairs!

By exfoliating, you help them find their natural path back & remove any blockages to the hair follicle.


Home Care
To prevent ingrown hairs gently scrub the skin 2/3 times a week in the bath or shower using a good loofah or exfoliating mitt – not the types that go very soft in the bath.

The abrasive action of the mitts/loofah will gently lift off your dead skin cells, which is the exfoliating action & clear any follicle blockages. It will also encourage the hairs to grow in the right direction.

Do this in a warm/hot bath as this makes the exfoliating action easier by softening the skins cells & opening the pores/follicles.

Remember to also moisturise the area daily, which will keep the new skin supple & help new hairs to grow through smoothly.

You can also purchase a topical solution such as - Tend Skin or Kalo or Hives Smooth Down which all reduce the occurrence of ingrown hairs &, retard & reduce hair growth
