Anthony Ingrown Hair Treatment Gel, 3 Fl Oz, 3 Pack

TL;DR Doesn't work miracles or make up for terrible shaving technique/crappy razors, but it is the top product I've found for treating/preventing ingrown hairs. This is the best salicylic acid ingrown hair treatment I've found. I've always struggled with ingrown hairs on my neck after shaving. While I think the biggest improvements have come from switching to a double edge razor for more control and switching to shaving every other day, this stuff does a great job preventing ingrown hairs. From my research it seems like the salicylic acid is the key ingredient here, but other SA based lotions I've found have a tendency to cause painful burning, have a strong nasty smell, and dry out skin. This does burn a little when applied right after shaving but it's pretty mild. It has no smell, and while I use an SPF face moisturizer after applying, it doesn't feel like it dries my skin out anyways. Plus it simply works better at preventing ingrown hairs than anything else I've found. Personally I apply it after shaving obviously, but also at night as it seems to work best for me when applied regularly in between shaving. It is fairly pricy I suppose, but a bottle last me for months and one pump is more than enough to cover the shaved areas on my face, not just my neck.

I've tried electric razors, mud masks, magic shave, and the list goes on. I had almost resigned myself to the inevitable fact that a beard was my only option. That's when I came across this ingrown hair treatment. My beard and neck are clear and smooth after only using this product for 3 days. I can use a straight razor again, which was a big no-no before, with the confidence that my face isn't going to be a minefield of bumps and rough a few days later as the new hair grows. This is how I use the product: I scrub the shaving area with a facial buff, warm/hot water, and some medicated Selsun Blue to remove dead skin and previous applications of lotion etc. It also relaxes the hair making it easier to cut. I then shave with my razor and finish with a few splashes of cold water to remove loose hair, shave cream, and to tighten my pores. After this, I pat dry my face and rub on a dim sized amount of Anthony Logistics Ingrown Hair Treatment. It's going to sting like alcohol, but that's normal. I finish with some Lubriderm body, face, and post shave lotion after waiting a few minutes for the treatment to absorb. Final Thoughts: I had my doubts...but I doubt no more. I definitely recommend this for my fellow blacks and anyone else suffering from the blight of ingrown hairs. I wish I found this a few years earlier.

The first time I used this, I had already had a hair bump for several days by the time the product arrived in the mail. I started using it right away, but I couldn't tell if it was helping or not. The next time I noticed an ingrown hair, I started using it right away. Five hours later, the ingrown hair had popped out. I don't know how this stuff works, but it does. It seems expensive for 2.5 ounces, but you only need a tiny dab on the affected area. Well worth the cost, considering it prevents you from having to walk around with a big red bump on your face for a week.

I've been looking all over for a product that treats Ingrown Hair after you shave & also doesn't contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. I looked at every soap at Meijer's and then I only found ONE bar of soap that is made by everything that came out of mother nature. I think it's made by Tom's Soap. Which I stopped using the bars of soap long time ago because I read an article over a decade ago that bars of soap are the worst kinds of soap to use, unless you care for it properly. So that's what I'm doing which is 1. Buy a soap dish that has holes on the bottom of it & a lid to enclose the bar of soap. 2. Do NOT use a louffa unless you plan on throwing it into your washer machine in HOT water & wash it after u use it EVERY TIME after u use it. So get rid of the louffa. 3. Use 2 washcloths soaped up with your organic soap on both washcloths. FIRST use one to wash & rinse your face, then soap it up again & wash your private parts below real good & then rinse with the HOTTEST water that you can stand. If you don't have a handheld shower spray, GET ONE. They are the easiest way to rinse off all the soap in all the creases and corners. 4. Use the 2 2nd washcloth to wash your entire body with, from dead to toes. Always start at the top & work your way down. Then rinse. 5. Get a big, fluffy, soft towel and take extra special care to your private area. Do NOT rub the towel all up and in there. Pat your pubic your pubic mound dry. 6. Then push the pump only ONE TIME because it goes a LONG WAYS. Then for the ladies spread it ALL over where you may shave your pubic hair off. Do NOT rub it into your vagina, if you do you better have a phone nearby because your embarrassed self is going to have to call poison control. Do NOT douche. This product may burn for a few minutes while it's trying to dry. I like to lay back on my bed with legs spread and a fan blowing down on it. Then it stays on all night, at least 8 hrs then wash it off with the soap and washcloth. Let yourself thoroughly dry down there. Then you can put a lotion on the area just incase. Use the Aveeno lotion that does NOT have SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE or any kind of SULFUR/SULFATE in it. Overall, this product is good and easy to use for both men and women.

I was skeptical at first, even in light of the good reviews, that I should buy this product. It was quite expensive compared to many other products claiming to remove razor bumps. The thing is, this is the first product I've actually used that works really well. Lots of cheaper products only work partially, and if you stop using them, the bumps come right back. I've spent twice the price of a bottle of this on numerous $5-10 dollar products that didn't work as advertised. This is worth your money. Use it twice daily for a week and you will see what I mean! Obviously, you have to shave carefully or, as soon as you stop using this, the razor bumps will come right back. But this product will really help keep them away! Additionally, the stuff lasts forever! You only need to apply a very small amount so 2.5 ounces will last several months.

Started putting this on twice a day, especially after shaving. Using this, along with a good pre-shave prep, and shaving old-school with a double sided razor, has helped my ingrown hairs decrease. However, I do get a bit of an irritated/stinging sensation on parts of my skin where I used it. Not sure if this stuff is good for your skin in the long run.

While I often buy things on Amazon, I rarely write reviews. I am writing this review because, to my heartfelt surprise, this stuff really works. I have had dry, sensitive skin my entire adult life. Razor burn on my chin (not ingrown hairs) has been a constant nuisance. Over the years, I have tried every manner of salves, creams, tonics etc etc etc. to no avail. You name it, I have tried it. I came across this product and I was intrigued because this is the first product that claimed that exfoliation is the key to making razor burn better. Really?!?! My skin is already raw, and I need to remove skin? Well, since I had tried everything else, I decided to give this a try. I have been using it twice daily for almost 1 week and to my most pleasant surprise my skin is much better. Not perfect yet, but the best thing for my skin in ages. I won't try to explain the logic of the product except to say that the combination of anti-inflammatory(saliclyic acid) and exfoliant(glycolic acid) eliminates the problem. And, while it seems expensive, only the smallest dab is needed. A single can should last for months.

I suffer from ingrown hairs more than anyone I know - I have a very course and curly beard and very tender skin. I used to sport the 2-day stubble for years out of necessity. I even got into wet shaving with traditional soaps, brushes, and razors trying to get rid of my ingrown hairs, but never could totally be free of them. I've tried other products - Tend Skin, Baxters, etc, and none of them work as well as Anthony's. Using proper technique learned from wet shaving and Anthony Logistics ingrown treatment as an aftershave balm, my ingrown problems have decreased drastically - I went from multiple silver dollar sized patches of ingrowns on my neck using wet shaving techniques and a drug store aftershave to maybe a single ingrown hair for every two shaves once I added Anthony's to the mix. Most people simply don't understand how difficult it can be for people like me who are horribly prone to ingrown hairs and they like to blame it on shaving technique or hygiene or the like. just do yourself a favor and try this out - I'm a very, very skeptical person who likes to nitpick even my most favorite things, and I absolutely love this product. It COULD be cheaper though.

I had a small patch of ingrown hair on the outer part of my lower legs (size of a tomato) near my knees. I've been using this for two weeks now and it seems to be working. I had excess skin which made the skin very lumpy and ugly. This seems to have gone now and it's definitely smoother to the touch and sight. I've been using it twice a day evening and mornings. It smells neutral nor does it sting when applied. As it is a blue gel it requires a little bit of a massage to get it to sink into the skin. If you press hard on the container, you get a large amount out but not to worry it's pretty easy to get small quantities to dispense too. So far to date I am pleased with my purchase. It's the first product I've used and I'm happy with it so far. Update - I've still been using the same bottle since I purchased it in April. I use it less frequently now, a few times a week. My legs have improved drastically and I'm really glad I bought this product. I'll be buying another bottle when it runs out as I am concerned the razor bumps may rear their ugly head again.

Produit très efficace, léger, idéal pour les barbes difficiles. S'utilise tous les jours, matin comme soir. A essayer absolument, oui.

Da ich leidenschaftlicher Nassrasurfreund bin und gerne meine Haut nach der Rasur "glattestens" bevorzuge, habe ich früher leider öfter den Preis eingewachsener Barthaare, vornehmlich im Hals- und Kinn-Bereich, hinnehmen müssen. Seit ich dieses zugegebenermaßen hochpreisige Mittel verwende, habe ich keine Probleme mehr und ich kann es sogar für den Kopf nach der Rasur meiner Glatze verwenden. Wichtig ist, dass im Grunde ein ganzer Pumpstoß für Gesicht und Kopf mehr als ausreicht, und beim Gesicht ein halber! Einfach auftragen (es kann kurz brennen), kurz einwirken lassen und danach die normale Gesichtscreme darüber auftragen, fertig! Klare Empfehlung!

Un bon produit contre les poils incarnés de la barbe qui se révéle après plusieurs utilisations assez efficaces sur la durée

Bought it for my significant other as he has struggles with thick ingrown facial hair and the unsightly bumps after shaving. His skin being male and Caribbean is thick but yet very sensitive so I was very happy to try out the Anthony Logistics Ingrown Hair Treatment. Very happy with the results although we still have a way to go before all the bumps have gone. But his skin is super smooth now and the bumps seem to be less.
