Her advice is to apply"a warm, wet towel to the beard for a few minutes before shaving to open pores and make it easier to release ingrown hairs. Use shaving gel, shave with a single blade razor or an electric razor on the highest setting. Appling a 1% hydrocortisone immediately after shaving can greatly reduce irritation, she says. And above all: don’t pick at those ingrown."
Dr. Bowe recommended gently washing the face with soap and water, patting dry, not rubbing, then applying a healing balm.
