[Missed Miss]

I've had a few ingrown hairs over the years, the kind that become zits, but, as far as I know, not due to shaving. Most, if not all of the after-shaving ingrown were nothing more than a hair growing under the top layer of skin and it LOOKS like it's the same as all the other hairs. You can actually see it under the skin as if it were a normal hair, but you keep trying to move it with your finger and nothing happens. With these, all I have to do it take a strait pin or anything else with a sharp point, like an X-Acto knife, and just poke it gently under the top layer of skin under the hair and then gently yank the hair out from it's lowest point. It doesn't hurt at all and, as soon as you set the hair free, you can shave it off as you normally would.

Amanda, I, too, VERY often wished I'd been born a girl or would become one over night. Why won't wishing from the universe cause THAT to happen??
