Jack Black Bump Fix, Razor Bump & Ingrown Hair Solution 177 ml

Product Information

The medical term is Pseudofolliculitis barbae (“PFB”). It’s essentially a particular type of ingrown hair and it’s especially problematic for those whose hair is naturally coarse and curly, like men of color. PFB can be unpleasant but if left untreated over time it can cause permanent scarring.

Anthony Ingrown Hair Treatment – Anthony’s ingrown treatment product’s distinguishing feature is its gel consistency. This easy-to-apply cream is an update to Kiehl’s former Razor Bump Relief product. The cream is mildly exfoliating and has soothing aloe vera, lipo hydroxy acid, willow herb extract, and vitamin E. It’s hydrating and cooling while also reducing irritation. Looking for a DIY solution? Rub a clean, dry, hard-bristle toothbrush on the area for 30 seconds twice a day (around Noon and just before bedtime works well for many). I’ve done this several times when I got a shave bump while traveling and it was the only thing at-hand. It actually worked pretty well for me.

We chatted with a couple of experts to find out about the different types of topical treatments to not only get rid of but also prevent these pesky bumps. "To prevent ingrown hairs, I recommend exfoliating three to four times a week," says Orange County-based esthetician and wax specialist Beka Hussong. Exfoliation can also help get rid of the ones that have already popped up, according to Bay Area esthetician Draci Gomez. The main biologically active componentsin Witch Hazel are hamamelitannin (a potent astringent and antioxidant), catechins (anti-inflammatory and antioxidant) and gallic acid (antibacterial). The bark extract contains by far the most hamamelitanninand it has the most gallic acid and catechins. The twigs contain fewer catechins, less gallic acid, and much less hamamelitannin(4.77% vs 0.18%). The leaves contain hardly any tannins (0.04%) or catechins and contain amedium amount of gallic acid (compared to the bark and twigs). Reduces the Occurrence of Razor Bumps: By using our Razor Bumps Solution, you can minimize the occurrence of razor bumps, resulting in a more enjoyable and comfortable shaving experience. This product is suitable for all skin types . SteelMclean’s Parallel Rapid Smooth bump relief and exfoliant uses vitamins and medicinal extracts to exfoliate dead skin rapidly, leaving smooth, hydrated, and clear skin behind. The brand also notes it works on fine lines and dark spots (we also found it to be an effective acne spot treatment).

From bartending to being a home barista, handling your own engine repairs, or a little light plumbing, there’s something gratifying about being a man that can do it all. There are plenty of us, though, who can mix a mean Manhattan or change a faucet, but how many men truly know the art of shaving with a straight razor?
