12 Embarrassing Body Problems

Bikini Rash and Ingrown Hairs

Waxing and shaving too closely causes inflammation and redness when the hairs split and loop around under the surface of the skin as they grow back.

What you shouldn’t do is rub the bumps to free the trapped hairs with a loofah. What you should do is exfoliate the top layer of your skin by applying an over-the-counter aspirin solution twice a day for at least two days. Other options are going to your dermatologist for a cortisone injection to reduce inflammation and laser treatment to prevent hair growth.
