Ingrown hair
I am facing problem of ingrown hair. Even after waxing, most of the hair remains and starts growing just in a day. Razor too, doesn't help. And this is happening from past few months. Please suggest some natural remedy so that I can get rid of ingrown hair.

Ingrown hair happens due to waxing and shaving only. Not on its own. Please send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment

There is no real natural remedy for permanent hair removal. We can only use modern day laser based hair removal that destroys the hair cycle there reducing the density of the hair over that area and there prevent further ingrown hairs.
Laser hair removal will not treat the immediate problem of ingrown hair but it will make sure you will never have any thing like that to happen in the future as the hair growth gradually reduces with treatment
