well, i'm in a bit of a problem right now. first of all my bikini line has been messed up forever it seems. I used to tweeze it but always got ingrown hairs, and now it is just a mess of ingrown hairs and red bumps...disgusting. Right now I am just trying to grow the hair on my bikini line out so that I can just get a fresh clean start, but who knows how long that is gonna take? Then, I stupidly decided to wax the rest of my hair down there off......not relaly stupid, but then I shaved some of it that I missed, and it looks like a mess too! Ingrown hairs and there is this one big pimple like bump on one of my vaginal lips, it started small and then started getting bigger, it is really wierd! What could it be? How can I get rid of these ingrown hairs and red bumps on my bikini line and everywehre else? I honestly just feel very self -conscious even though no one is seeing it right now, lol. AND, what do people prefer, when it gets all better - waxing or shaving? or should i just nix all that and go to a salon??? THANK YOU!!! THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS!

u should probably gentaly exfoliate b4 any hair removal in this area if ur prone 2 ingrow hairs and every day ( very gentally) after the area has calmed down after the hair removal. u can also get stuff from a phamacy 2 treat ingrow hairs. the one i know of is "ingrow-go" but im sure there r many similaer products.this is basically just a chemical exhpliant.if just personal preferance whether 2 shave or wax. shaveing is less painful but dosnt last as long and u need 2 do it more often. waxing stays much smoother 4 longer and the hair grows back finer but sumppl cant handle the pain. i prefer waxing, but its up 2 u.go to a salon for it if its sumthing ur comphtatble with and can aford to keep it up as it can b an added mouthly cost.

My manthing shaves me, he once did suggest waxing me, but i think by the look on my face he realised that would be a bad thing to do LOLIf you feel so self concious about it, i would maybe go to a salon, put up with the waxing, then start all over again, keeping on top of it by shaving at home, that way you keep smooth, no ingrown hairs, and after the waxing, since it takes week for the hairs to grow back , it will enable the bumps and ingrown hair spots to heal and go away before you start shaving........

is it safe to go to a salon though if i have ingrown hairs and redness/irritation? i'm just afraid that that would make the area worse.....or should i just wait awhile until more of the hair grows back? and then start things up again?
