Yeah I got one of those exfoliating pads this weekend and had overnight results (of good nature).

I'm really glad you had it done by a pro. You definetly would have known what all the fuss was about had you tried to do it yourself. I'm sorry to hear about the ingrown hairs. I've had that problem in the past but only with shaving. do your best to free them. They can turn into nasty boils which you never will want to endure. They are very painfull and potentially can keep you off your cycle for a period if they get bad enough. Next time try not to wax high up where you have very tender skin. The shorts will cover that area anyhow. Use a more abrasive exfoliating pad and really scrub your leggs. They sell these pads for acne. It may feel like steel wool at first but you get used to it and eventually enjoy how smooth your skin feels. I can't recall the name right now but they are white and tear shaped. The pharmacist or person in the skin care section will know exactly what to give you. Feel better!

Thanks again for the advice. A few day on and my legs are fine. all the inflamation has gone from my ingrowns. Handy bit of advice I'd like to re-emphasize - really scrub with that exfoliator.

cheers
