Allergy bumps/pimples after body wax
I did waxing for the first time ever to remove body hair 7 days ago... since then I have painful and big sized bumps and pimples all over my hands, shoulders and back (all back covered). I also experience rashes, redness, etc.
Even when I trim/shave my body hair over hands, shoulders using a body trimmer or normal blade razor, I get rashes, redness, pimples and above all skin is turning black/dark as I have been doing it for couple of years now.
Kindly guide what should be done and a permanent remedy for it.

Avoid using razor on the body hair. Waxing can also irritate sensitive skin & hair follicles apart from risk of local infections. laser hair reduction might be a good option for you.
