    Ingrown Hair Treatment

    Hey guys & gals.....


    Well I know with all the body hair removing we do that we all struggle with ingrown hairs from time to time. And most of us end up buying products like tendskin etc that cost almost $20-$35 a bottle and don't last that long. Well I recently came across a recipe for how to create your own Tendskin solution and it won't wonderful (infact better than the product itself). I have struggled with ingrowns for a while, but after putting this stuff on my ingrown hairs or just after shaving waxing etc..... it seems to do the trick. Here is the recipe:


    In case anyone hasn't been told yet, TendSkin is ASPIRIN. Main Ingredient=Acetylsalicylic Acid=Plain old Aspirin. Paying $35 for aspirin water is silly.



    1) Crush 18 tablets of uncoated aspirin
    2) Dissolve these in 5.5 oz of 70% rubbing alcohol
    3) Crush 8 tablets of uncoated aspirin
    4) Dissolve these in 2.5 oz of witch hazel
    5) Combine the rubbing alcohol and witch hazel solutions. Some settling of aspirin may occur, just shake it well before you use it. Enjoy

    I put mine in an old squirt bottle and just squirt it on whenever needed.

    Can you give me an idea of what happens when you use it?

    It exfoliates the skin and the ingrown hair will surface again. It is pretty mild to the skin unless you have cuts or something.... because it has alcohol in it

    you can also use witch hazel to clean your face at night. it's gentle on skin and will def. remove the oil/dirt if you got it
