Hey @Ashwiniy ,

Try a home remedy using sugar, its a great skin scrub that can help get rid of ingrown hair. It gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells and helping the ingrown hair come out of the skin. Plus, it will make your skin silky smooth.


	Mix one cup of white sugar with one-half cup of extra-virgin olive oil or jojoba oil.
	Stir in 10 drops each of tea tree oil and lavender essential oil.
	Apply a small amount of this homemade scrub on the affected area.
	Gently scrub the skin in circular motions for a few minutes. Then rinse it off with lukewarm water.
	Follow this remedy once or twice a week as needed.
