What Are Home Remedies for Ingrown Hair Removal? Treatment options for ingrown hairs that can be attempted at home include washing and gently scrubbing the area of the ingrown hair with a moist warm washcloth or an exfoliating scrub.
An ingrown hair happens when the sharp tip of the hair curls back or grows sideways into the skin of the hair follicle. It is a benign condition, which usually appears as a small tan or sometimes pink bump under the skin. Often, a small pinpoint (often dark) part of the underlying hair may be seen under the skin bump.
