Hey everyone, I guess this is geared more towards female models as I am one myself, but I will take any advice on hair removal from anyone. Straight up, I'm mostly Italian with black hair. My pubic hair is very coarse, almost wiry! Because of this I encounter a lot of problems and am seeking some advice.
1) Ingrown Hairs and Scarring
I get these very badly along my bikini line. What I've tried is to stop wearing tight underwear and to cut the elastic from all my underwear so nothing presses against my skin. (I have crazy skin and allergies to materials so it just feels better to go without or to cut them.)
I exfoliate with baking soda every time I shower if I can around my groin. I moisturize with coconut oil after which my skin loves.
That has helped me avoid new ingrown hairs but I have obvious scarring from them all over my bikini line. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of this scarring? I'm self conscious of it because it looks discolored. Also does anyone have any tips for ingrown hairs? I'm sure I will keep getting them, but the scarring is my biggest issue.
2) Bush or Shave?
A full bush gets old to me after awhile because the hair will just keep growing and being annoying. Shaving the mound is just asking for painful ingrown hairs and a grow out process that looks bad on me. I've decided that leaving the mound and removing the hair around my labia and bikini like (and butt) is the best, but it's still such a pain.
Right now I just wax with Sally Hansen's pre-made wax strips and sometimes shave the labia. I know I'm not asking a question here but does anyone else feel fed up with their pubic hair? I know a bush can be a great asset on cam for those that like it, but I feel like I need to look... more maintained.
Thank you for reading. I wish I could afford laser hair removal. I feel like the scarring and ingrown hairs make me want to stay off cam. Anyone else?
