Ingrown Hair Tips: Apply warm compress, wash the affected area using a washcloth or soft-bristled toothbrush. Use a circular motion for several minutes. You can also carefully use a sterile needle and insert it under the hair loop to gently lift embedded hair tip. Retinoids applied to your skin help with exfoliation and can reduce the thickening/darkening of the skin that often occurs on skin prone to ingrown hairs.
