when you wax it will cause ingrown hairs. you need to use a loopha sponge when you take a bath or shower this will help keep the skin from covering the hairs when they try to grow back which is usually in 4 - 6 weeks.

Try massaging a small amount of Tend Skin for ingrown hairs into your skin immediately after hair removal.
Tend Skin has been widely reported in the media and is often recommended by beauticians. There are also a lot of other popular treatments available.
For the scarring I would also recommend Ultra Shave as it contains grape seed extract, which is 15000 times stronger than vitamin E. Massage it into the scarred skin daily and you will see visible improvements in a couple of weeks or so.

Try a hot/warm washcloth over the ingroan hairs before trying to remove them to soften up the skin a little. & before shaving, go to wal*mart or a store near you and buy, (not sure exactly what its called) but they have Johnsons baby oil in a gel form, put that on befor you shave, add some soap or shaving cream on top of that and you should be good to go. *TIP- When you're done in the shower before drying off, add a little more and rub over your legs for a long lasting smooth.
(I think the container is clear and purple)

Did you ever try to get lazer done? I did the underarms and it's great! The bikini and legs are next. I know some people who have had it done and no more ingrown hairs.

This will sound crazy, but it works, feels good, and is good for your skin. While in the shower, before you turn the water on, exfoliate with equal parts of salt and mayonaise. I use a teaspoon of each - does both legs and feet. No, you won't smell funny.
