exfoliation wont work if the hair is already trapped under the skin. The quickest way is removal with a pin...but be careful. Best to do this directly after a hot bath or shower, so the pores are open. Make sure you wipe the pin with a mild surgical disinfectant to keep it very clean. Then just try to lift th hair above the skin level with the pin, BUT if you cant do it after four digs then stop, because the hair isnt long enough yet and you will only cause the skin to scar if you keep going. Just leave it, and try again in a couple of weeks when the hair should be long enough to remove easily this way.

to be honest, thats what i do. to me, its not worth that much hurting for such a little thing. if you go to the store, they have stuff cremes, oils, stuff like that for after you wax, (i'm not saying you wax) but i use that and it works like a charm
