Exfoliating Scrub
When a person has ingrown hair, the first thing to do is to exfoliate the area. This will help remove dead skin cells and unblock the hair follicle. Also, this will help clear the hair follicle and prevent new ingrown hairs from forming. Anyone can buy a gentle exfoliating scrub at a local pharmacy or drugstore, but they are probably better off making one themselves with some sugar and coconut oil.
Mix one teaspoon of sugar and coconut oil in a small bowl and then rub this mixture over the skin until all of the pores have absorbed it. Then rinse off with warm water; be sure not to use harsh cleansers on this area as they may irritate the skin further.
