I waxed my legs for the first time ever in my life about 3 weeks ago, now the hair is growing in and it seems like all of them are ingrown, which is causing me a lot of itching. Does anyone know how to fix this all at once instead of trying to pull out each individual hair one at a time???? Also how long does the hair have to be before I wax again, I don't want to do it too soon and chance going through that pain and still have hair.

Ok. you can onlt really wax again when the hair is about 5mm long. This drives me insane cos my hair is quite dark and regrowth is a bugger. So I invested in an epilator. It can get the hairs as soon as they pop out of the skin (think of alot of tweezers pulling the hair out). It doesn't hurt as much as it sounds.

Secondly, in regards to the ingrown hairs, you have to exfoliate on a regular basis. Straight after you wax you need to shower and exfoliate softly, to get any left over wax out of the poors, otherwise they will get blocked and voila, in grown hairs. Exfoliate everytime you shower with a loofa, and then moisturise.

This should help. However, I still get the ocassional ingrown hair. But I just pop it out like a pimple. IT's amazing how much it grows under there.

Hope it helps

You should consult with a doctor. Waxing is indeed painful, you might want to give shaving a try. Get a Braun or Philips brand shaver. But both of these methods required to be perform on regular basis. If you wear full lenght clothes, then probably you won't need to bother about waxing or shaving your legs.

You should wait a little so your hair can grow again and then wax again.
