OUCH! Ingrown hair that I can't get out!

[MummaSue]

Yeah, I'd get into that with a needle. But I'm a total picker when it comes to things like that!

lol, you're sick! :P

Thanks ladies, it's in an awkward spot so I'll get DP to have a go tonight. Gotta love the fact they'll go gross stuff for ya when you can't!

Honey and a bandaid over the top.

Or, sometimes, if it has a head, you can tweeze the head and apply pressure and the hair just comes floating out.

Is it just me or do we all seem to like picking at the ingrown hairs???

[CrazyLady]

lol, the only reason i like picking is because usually after you do, the bugger clears up and stops hurting!

Spots, ingrown hairs, you name it!! I'm a nurse and used to love getting those jobs at work! I'd put my hand up for them. The BEST one I ever did was a poor wee man who'd had work on his prostate and his testicles had been packed with this stuff (I forget the name of it) and I got to pull it all out!

I know, I know, I'm totally gross and have just taken this thread to a whole other level.

Instead of a pin, get one of those disposable splinter removers - they are much more hygenic (as they are for one time use and they are sterilised) and better shaped as they are designed for that purpose.

Ouch! I hope it is feeling better soon.
