I have a question about skin care for men. I have a problem with ingrown hairs on certain parts of my face after I shave. I have followed shaving instructions and have shaved with the grain, I have used a good gel and a clean blade and I shave after I shower. Here is my question: I have used tweezers to remove hairs in the past, and I worry that I have changed the follicles so the hairs don't grow straight out. Is this possible? Do they repair themselves eventually? |

There is no answer at this time. |

Have you ever tried an electric razor? You don't use shaving cream and all that jazz. It might prevent the hairs from becoming ingrown as opposed to more traditional methods. |

With an electric shaver, you can go against the grain, and cut every last hair before it becomes long enough to grow back into the skin. |

This is a problem that Afro-Caribbean / African American men suffer from quite a bit - there are products designed to help, see sites such as this: http://www.head2toez.co.uk/contentitempage~ContentID~172778.aspx |

I recommend using something like Aveeno shaving cream. Don't use blades that shave too close (the original Sensor razors aren't bad). Tweezing shouldn't have any effect on the remaining follicles. -welte-ga |
