I'm prepared to do something drastic. I feel like nothing is working...pumice stones make me bleed and i'm sure they make the skin tougher..does anyone here legitimately know anything about how skin behaves?
The skin is on my legs btw and i'm trying to get rid of ingrown hairs. Don't come in here and say how you get one or two and enjoy pulling them out...not the time or the place. This is like the call i make to the suicide hotline before i jump.

I have heard that scrubbing too often can make skin toughen up. Have you tried those creams that are meant to stop hairs growing back as fast? becasue I think they make the hair finer.

I think i agree with the sign toughening comment. It seems that way....I actually haven't you know. I am poorer than i am desperate and don't really want to keep spending c£20 on bottles of cream that doesn't do anything! Surely if the hair was finer it was be even more likely to ingrow?!

I don't know how it works. I think Avon do cheap ones, I don't know if they work more or less than others.

Thanks for the tip! I'm going to have a look now!
