Word Of Mash: How To Deal With Ingrown Hair

If you’ve ever had an ingrown hair, you know how annoying it can be. Ingrown hairs occur when the hair follicles become clogged with dead skin cells. Shaving, waxing or plucking cause the new hair to curl inwards while growing, which ends up getting trapped underneath a layer of skin, which can further go on to become a painful cyst.
