If the finer hairs are still bothering you, then remove them in the exact same way. You just have to wait until they grow out, which could be only a day or two. By gently holding skin taut with your free hand while tweezing there will be less tugging. You want the least amount of pulling, which is a major cause of pain when removing hair.
You also risk scraping skin if you dig in, which may cause scabs or dark spots. If you're having a hard time seeing the hairs, apply a little baby powder to the area and they'll be more noticeable. While you're working, dust off your eyebrows with a towel occasionally to keep the area clean and clear.
When you're finished, apply your facial toner or some alcohol-free witch hazel. You can also apply your favorite facial moisturizer with a cotton square to keep skin looking soft. Ingrown hairs might be less likely to plague moisturized skin, especially where the hair is thick like on the chin.

Skin Body. By Naomi Torres Naomi Torres. It works well for large areas, such as the legs. Shaving is commonly used on the face and underarms as well.
There are many types of razors, including disposable razors and electric shavers. These range from inexpensive to more expensive electric models. Shaving can cause stubble, irritation, and razor bumps in some people. Men of color who have curly or kinky beard hair are especially susceptible to ingrown hairs caused by shaving. Shaving can also be irritating and cause razor bumps on some areas of the body, including the pubic region.
Waxing can be done by a professional or at home. It uses warm or cold wax and paper or cloth strips to pull many hairs out simultaneously by the root. Waxing can be done anywhere on the face or body. It can keep skin hair-free for 2 to 4 weeks. This can be a downside for some people. If you go for a professional waxing, make sure your clinician is licensed and working in a clean environment. Like shaving, waxing can sometimes lead to skin irritation and ingrown hairs.
It can also be painful for some people. Laser hair removal targets many hairs in an area at once. This treatment should only be done by a professional, such as a dermatologist or licensed laser hair removal technician.
Laser hair removal is most effective in people with lighter skin and darker hair. You may need several treatments before you see a difference in the amount of hair you have. Laser hair removal may be permanent or semipermanent. In some instances it may only soften, rather than remove, hair. In rare instances, laser hair removal may have the opposite effect and stimulate more hair growth, or adjacent hair growth on areas not being treated.
This is known as paradoxical hypertrichosis. It may also be more likely to occur in women who have hormonal imbalances, such as polycystic ovary syndrome PSOS. Laser hair removal is very expensive. It can cost thousands of dollars for each individual area of the body or face. Based on the area being done and the intensity of the laser, this hair removal treatment can range from mildly uncomfortable to painful.
Electrolysis can be used anywhere on the face or body. Needle electrolysis is a technique that relies on a needle or probe to zap hairs at the root, one at a time.
It produces permanent to semipermanent results. Technicians who use a Teflon-coated needle may produce more immediate, permanent results than those who use standard needles. An inexperienced practitioner can easily cause scarring, so choose wisely. Apply a creamy cleanser or a shaving cream to preserve moisture. It will also help the razor blade glide easily across your skin. Use a dedicated razor for your face, and not the same one you use to shave the rest of your body.
When shaving your facial hair, lightly press down on your razor blade and move it in the direction of your hair growth and shave in small strokes to prevent skin irritation and razor burn. After you shave, apply an antibiotic cream to avoid any bumps or rashes. Avoid any alcohol sprays or perfumes as it can irritate skin," she says. Another pro tip? Use a warm soak or shower before shaving to prepare the skin and post shaving use ice or cold water rinse.
If you did want to let your body hair grow during this time, this might be a great time to embrace the au naturel look, whatever your reasons. But if you're looking to get rid of it, shaving might be a good idea. Dr Sharad suggests making a good lather with a foam or cleanser, and starting with the wrists and going upwards to the arm. For legs, start with the toes, then do the shins and calves and then thighs.
