[@gracie2531]

[@che33366]

Can you please tell us more?

[@duaa9322]

Sameee but i've done it like three times already until it bleeds and hurts so bad but the ingrown hair is still stuck there idk what to do now 😭😭😭😭

[@evabessioud276]

@@duaa9322use a needle! Don’t even loose your time doing that, I FEEL YOU!

[@CatQueen1323]

Using a warm compress was highly effective. I didn't have an actual heat pack so I just left a t-shirt in front of the radiator for a while and used that, saw results almost immediately. Gentle exfoliation helps too, you could even do that with a wet washcloth if you don't have an exfoliation tool.

[@user-hj6ps6jb3f]

How long did u leave the warm cloth on?

[@asbahhabib2525]

How many times do this In a week?

[@24sexy1]

I had one for months and nothing worked that I tried! I watched this videos and the warm towel with exploitation took it away within a day !!

Not me watching this after using my fingers to get the ingrown hair out while waxing my public area💀

[@bbminetesting6837]

"Public" Kinda sus bro

[@user-fw2nz6tl6b]

pubic ❎
public ✅

[@christinamartinez8132]

I use trimmers and I still get ingrown hairs.
Update: I think it's a blocked pore in my panty line. I had one removed by my nurse practitioner about two -two and a half years ago that was a blocked pore. When she numbed the area, and removed it it looked like a tiny cyst ball that was trapped under my skin. I'll be making an appointment to get this removed too.

[@vinnieolga]

Least satisfying way to do this

[@goldbedvids8580]

see THIS is what i was looking for! hundreds of "preventing ingrown hair" videos later. too late for that, how do i heal it? thank you so much!

[@TeKeyaKrystal]

so all the extraction videos are advised against ?

[@nikkic0509]

Witch Hazel is great for ingrown hairs among other things.

[@5pctLowBattery]

Been working on this ingrown hair for a month. This is to remind myself that don’t resort to a tweezer. Use a safety pin to get it out when hair comes to the surface using the mentioned techniques. It’s not going to pop out by itself.

[@T-TimeWithTeeta]

Thank you so much! Tips I haven't seen on YT after searching many videos! 👏🏾⭐💥

[@mattrenko]

I used a pair of tweezers to remove an ingrown whisker on my chin. It had started to hurt. Once I pulled it, my chin was better. And not certain why you say not to use tweezers. If it can’t be initially pulled using tweezers, all these other suggestions are probably pretty helpful.

[@lyricxlmxchi8676]

Me watching this after I used a needle to pull the hair out and tweezed it. Now I have dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and scarring. Welp 🤣🤣🤣

[@hoorainanjum552]

[@jaimeedstrom4564]

I tried scrubbing a little with a toothbrush and now it looks like I have a hickey on my neck😑

[@kaizenquito1153]

Still.. we always used to just pick it

[@LilNutDumb]

This would be nice and all if my leg wasnt in my pain every time i touch it

[@justlilly7653]

You should probably see a doctor or dermatologist, that sounds bad

[@zaid-zi6qy]

Same ..hurts so badly when i accidentally scratch on it

[@taneshanottanesha5456]

I deal with the same thing. 😢 Weird thing is, I've had another one on my other leg for years without pain and it's a big dark bump. (I've just realized what this is, as I thought it was just acne or some scarring until I looked up ingrown hair for this new current one).

[@LilNutDumb]

@taneshanottanesha5456 yea I see no reason to see a dermatologist tbh it's barley even noticeable for me it's just a bit darker where my ingrown hair was after 2 months

[@jimmyjohnjames6397]

I just dig them out with the same tweezers i used to dig out my ingrown toenails.

[@anonymousanonymous-tw3wm]

I also use those same tweezers to pick up loose change 😂

[@ambergillon7209]

Gentle exfoliating after the steam. Slowly but safely they are coming out and not coming back 😅 All the false info out here. I’m sure this works for most skins types.
